WRITTEN COMMUNICATIONS
Cm. Tenery suggested that Staff send a letter of appreciation and
good health to former Cm. Woy, who resigned due to health
reasons.
Cm. Vonheeder questioned the effect of the Draft EIR for Triad
General Plan Amendment, Livermore, on LAFCO's decision on
Dublin's sphere of influence.
Mr. Tong explained that LAFCO will probably prepare a Draft
Sphere of Influence for consideration, by the end of August. It
would then go to public hearing, when the City and all other
interested parties would be invited to comment. It will be
LAFCO's decision as to the exact area of Dublin's Sphere of
Influence, and may or may not be different from what Dublin
requested.
It was decided that the Commission would not, at this time
comment regarding this matter.
Regarding the modification of Alameda County Agricultural
Preserves Guidelines, it was pointed out that under Dublin's
proposed sphere of influence, if adopted by LAFCO, Dublin would
acquire land currently under the Williamson Act.

After a brief discussion comparing the desirability and
requirements of a City street to that of a private street, Cm.
Vonheeder made a motion, with Cm. Alexander's second, to add to
the Resolution Recommending Adoption of the San Ramon Specific
Plan a second alternative: that access be a private easement, as
conceptually drawn and agreed upon at the June 29, 1983, meeting,
with ingress/egzess alteration.
Mr. Bill Kartozian, owner of Area 3, was present in the audience,
and stated that he basically agreed with the conceptual proposal,
however, he wanted assurance that the development plan which he
has proposed would be approved, before any dedication of his land
takes place to implement the joint project discussed earlier.
Mr. Tong stated that it was not appropriate to discuss site
specific development proposals in a Specific Plan. The issue ~
being discussed was the conceptual access alignment. After the ,
Specific Plan is acted upon, Staff would work closely with I
applicants to develop their site specific project in coordination
with the Specific Plan policies.
After closing the public hearing, Cm. Alexander made the motion,
with Cm. Vonheeder's second, to adopt the Resolution Adopting the
Negative Declaration concerning the San Ramon Road Specific Plan.
Cm. Vonheeder moved that the Resolution, recommending to the City ~
Council, adoption of the San Ramon Road Specific Plan, would ~i
include the second alternative for access, which would be a
private easement concept; and that the access, whether public or '
private would be that one which was conceptually drawn and agreed '
upon at the June 29, 1983, meeting between the property owners
and Mr. Tong, with ingress/egress alteration. The motion was
seconded by Cm. Alexander. The motion was carried by unanimous
vote of the Commissioners.

OTHER BUSINESS
Mr. Tong reminded the Commissioners of the Citizens Workshop
regarding the General Plan which would be held on July 12, 1983,
at the Shannon Community Center. He asked the Commissioners to ,
discuss the proposed format. !
Cm. Vonheeder queried who was handling zoning investigation for
the City at this time. Mr. Tong responded that, although the
County is currently responsible for zoning inspection, Mr. Vic
Taugher would join the City staff, on August l, 19$3, on a
contract basis, as Building Inspector.
Cm. Vonheeder also asked about the status of the illegal Bagel
King sign. Mr. Tong stated that the owner has been notified and
requested to remove the signs.
