This raises a question to us. Why, since these <br /> homes have been here the longest, have we been overlooked? <br /> Certainly the same 'what's good for one is good for another' <br /> rule applies here. <br /> <br /> "Please make it bearable to continue to live and thrive in <br /> our homes by approving an expeditious building of a soundwall <br /> for our families. Thank you.". <br /> <br /> Mayor Mercer instructed staff to investigate the heights and <br />cost of a soundwall for this area of Bernal Avenue, and report <br />back to Council on the matter. <br /> <br />PUBLIC HEARINGS <br />item 6a <br />PUD-89-1, Application of Far West Associates for development plan <br />approval to construct a 124-unit residential pro~ect and related <br />improvements to be located on an approximately 20 acre site <br />located easterly of the terminus of Stoneridge Drive. Zoning for <br />the property is PUD (Planned Unit Development)-Medium Density <br />Residential District <br /> <br />Consider Adoption of Negative Declaration <br /> (Contd. from 4-18-89) <br /> Mr. Swift presented his report (SR 89:182) dated April 18, <br />1989, regarding this matter. <br /> <br /> Mayor Mercer declared the continued public hearing open on <br />the application and the negative declaration. <br /> <br /> Mr. Lou Balducci, representing Far West Associates, stated <br />that the Planning Commission, City staff, and surrounding <br />neighbors approve of the proposed project. He stated he had <br />several meetings with the Mohr Park Homeowners Board and residents <br />of the Pleasanton Meadows area as well as people across the Arroyo <br />Mocho, and he has made adjustment to the project to alleviate the <br />concerns of the neighbors. He stated he concurs with the staff <br />report with the exception of three conditions to which he would <br />like to make minor changes. First, in deference to the neighbors, <br />he would like to make a modification to the site plan by moving a <br />two story unit to a one-story unit location and relocating a one- <br />story unit next to three other single-story units to give visual <br />relief to the neighbors across from the arroyo. He advised this <br />does not change the total number of units or the exterior of the <br />project; it changes some of the internal appearance and the change <br />would give the relief desired by the neighbors. <br /> <br /> Mr. Balducci stated that if Council approves this <br />modification, he would like to include a statement in Condition <br /> <br /> - 4 - 5-2-89 <br /> <br /> <br />
