It was moved by Ms. Dennis, seconded by Mr. Tarver, to add a requirement to modify the grading plan to require that the three lots at the south end of the McGuire property be reduced to no more than 500 foot elevation with direction to the Planning Commission to explore additional cut to reduce the elevation further and to add a second requirement to add landscaping within the open space area of the McGuire property by adding drought tolerant landscaping within the open space area. The roll call vote was as follows: AYES: Councilmembers- Ayala, Dennis, Michelotti, Pico, and Mayor Tarver NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None Ms. Dennis expressed her appreciation for Mr. Erickson and Ms. Varela supporting this application. She said these projects had been included in the Vineyard Corridor Specific plan in order to provide unity for the area and a look that the community would find pleasing. These property owners have worked with the City in good faith to accomplish that end and she appreciated that. It was moved by Ms. Dennis, seconded by Ms. Michelotti, to introduce Ordinance No. 1789, to be read by title only and waiving further reading thereof, approving the applications of Brian McGuire (PUD-99-06), Robert and Sandra Lutz (PUD-99-10), Clara Nevis (PUD-99-09), Kenneth Gooch (PUD-99-08 and Frank and Li!lian Jardin (PUD-99-12),including the modification to the conditions as previously approved. Mr. Tarver indicated he had wanted to separate these properties at the beginning because they are different. He did not support the Specific Plan. If this were on the ballot as a plan that combined both, he would vote against it because he had so much objection on what is happening on the rest of the Vineyard Corridor. This current proposal is a logical extension of what has been done in Vineyard Corridor as well as having been in process for a long, long time. It is unfortunate what has happened to these property owners. He has know Mr. McGuire for a long time and appreciated his situation. Time is everything. CAPP is not helping the situation either, which is why he wanted to pursue development plans. There are a lot of issues that are going to be tied up. He is also concerned about the school in this area. He felt that school was required when Ruby Hills was built and is certainly required now with everything else that is happening. He hopes the Financing Plan will indicated a way to accomplish what is necessary for this area with or without the effects of the CAPP Initiative. He supports the application, but he wished there were an approved Finance Plan and assurance from the School Board that the school would go in and the road was going to be put in so this was in no way connected to the east side of the landfill. Mr. Pico said there was time in the future to address those concerns. This is just " one step in the process. 28 09/20/99 Pleasanton City Council Minutes
