There were no public speakers on this day.
SD. 2 CONSIDER Consent Items previously removed.
SD.3 HEARING on the itemized costs of abatement for property located at 616 Grove Avenue, Richmond (Estate of Fannie Wilson,
Owner). (Michael Angelo Silva, Department of Conservation and Development)
Vote: 5 - 0 Passed
SD.4 CONSIDER adopting Resolution No. 2009/398 establishing the Alamo Municipal Advisory Council. (Supervisor Piepho)
Supervisor Piepho introduced the item, noting that this action would essentially catch Alamo up to the other areas of the County that
have had Municipal Advisory Councils (MACs) for decades. She said it is also important to give the public access to community
issues and said she thinks this action will provide a more cohesive link.
The Chair called for public comment and the following people spoke:
Sandra Fink, Alamo resident, said the system that Alamo currently has in place already works;
Nancy Dommes, Alamo resident, said she is excited about the possibility of a MAC and only having to attend one meeting in
Alamo to find out what is going on in the community;
Craig McConnaoghey, Alamo resident, said the current system works well and a MAC could be biased as it would be
responsible to the Board of Supervisors and not to the community;
Beulah Schiller, Alamo resident, urged the Board not to rush but to look at what will be gained and what will be given up;
Robert Myhre, Alamo resident, said it is time for a MAC in Alamo;
Janet Evans, Alamo resident, said she supports a MAC to work for positive change;
Michael Gibson, Alamo resident, expressed concern that a seven-member MAC could not address all the community’s issues
and suggested allowing the MAC to form subcommittees that could be comprised of non-MAC members as well;
Roger Smith, Alamo Improvement Association, encouraged retaining all the organizations that already serve the area well;
David Davis, Alamo resident, said he sees this as adding a layer of government and noted that the MAC members would be
appointed by the Board of Supervisors and not elected by the community;
Cecily Barclay, Alamo resident, spoke in support of an Alamo MAC; and
Mike Cameron, Alamo resident, suggested keeping the proposed MAC and the San Ramon Valley Planning Commission
(SRVPC) working in tandem for a few years before disbanding the SRVPC to ensure the MAC is working for the community.
Supervisor Piepho agreed the Alamo Improvement Association (AIA) is an important voice for the community but noted it is not a
public body and is therefore not required to follow Brown Act meeting requirements. She added that the MAC would do nothing to
take away from the AIA.
Supervisor Glover commented that with a MAC, all the groups in Alamo now have a body with whom they can take their issues and
have them presented to the Board.
Supervisor Gioia agreed that transparency of government and public confidence are important and said a MAC will be subject to open
government meeting laws.
Vote: 5 - 0 Passed
DELIBERATION ITEMS
D.1 ACCEPT report from Conservation and Development Director regarding the regional planning commissions and DETERMINE whether
the terms of the regional commissions should be extended. (Catherine Kutsuris, Conservation and Development)
Catherine Kutsuris, Community Development Department, introduced the item noting that the East County and the San Ramon Valley
Regional Planning Commissions are set to sunset on October 6, 2009, unless the Board takes action to extend the. She said the
County’s Planning Commission is prepared to take on the work of those regional committees, should they sunset. She noted that since
the regional commissions were created a number of major changes have taken place and that the affected unincorporated areas have
dropped dramatically due to incorporations and annexations. She said that the County’s creation of an Urban Limit Line has also left
relatively little area for development. She added that the County’s Zoning Administrator has a high success rate for planning processes
and only 2-5% of the Zoning Administrator’s decisions have been appealed.
Supervisor Piepho suggested that County zoning and planning issues could be heard at offsite venues to allow easier public access by
those in the affected region.
The Chair called for public comment and the following people spoke:
Eric Hasseltine, Pleasant Hill resident and former Contra Costa County Supervisors, provided the Board with background on the
creation of the commissions and spoke in support of the proposed action;
Patricia Curtain, Lafayette resident, spoke in support of sunsetting the committees;
Allan Moore, Walnut Creek resident, said the commissions have provided a valuable service but the time has come for them to
sunset;
Roger Smith, Alamo Improvement Association, said the regional committees have worked well over the years and encouraged
the Board to retain the San Ramon Valley Planning Commission (SRVPC) for at least a year to be able to see how the new
Alamo Municipal Advisory Committee (MAC) is working out;
David Davis, Alamo resident, also suggested extending the SRVPC for another year or two;
Maryann Cella, Diablo resident; Cecily Barclay, Alamo resident, and Dave Hudson, Sa Ramon resident also spoke in favor of
the sunsetting.
Supervisor Uilkema thanked former Supervisor Hasseltine for the background and added that today’s action has nothing to do with
how successful the regional commissions have been but is about creating efficiency in the County’s planning processes.
Supervisor Gioia said he would support developing a policy for holding some County Planning Commission meetings offsite so that
people in affected regions can more easily attend.
Chair Bonilla commented that the MACs are working with very engaged communities and she proposed planning commission
training, perhaps in conjunction with the cities and the Mayor’s Conference.
