Leave a Comment | Be The First To Comment

At the Pleasanton City Council meeting on July 15 @ 7:00 the council will meet to discuss adopting two resolutions.

  • Adopt a resolution placing the Save Pleasanton’s Hills & Housing Cap initiative on the November 4, 2008 ballot; and approve related Election procedures.
  • Adopt a resolution placing an initiative measure to protect ridgelines and hillsides and to clarify growth management procedures on the November 4, 2008 ballot; and approve related election procedures.

    • City Council Agenda 7-15-08

    More than 5,000 Pleasanton residents signed a petition asking the Pleasanton City Council to place an initiative on the ballot which would limit development on Pleasanton hillsides. Some of what is asked for is.

    • Limiting development on hillsides with grades greater than 25% within 100 feet of a ridgeline
    • Stricter definition of ‘housing unit’ increasing the current number of residential units in Pleasanton

    Supporters are looking for an ordinance that would stop developments like Oak Grove in Pleasanton which is a 51 lot custom home development on 496 acres in the southeast hills of Pleasanton.
