BRAGDON ^''' "'J DIRECTOR OF COMMUNIT DEVELOPMENT DATE: October 24, 1991 SUBJECT: Joint Planning committee and City of Brentwood SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATION Request the Board of Supervisors to invite the City of Brentwood to participate with the County in a joint planning process to address major issues of mutual concern regarding urbanization in the Brentwood area. FISCAL IMPACT Minor cost for staff support during the pendency of the planning effort. BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS Staff concurs with the background information contained in Supervisor Torlakson's subject board order of September 17; 1991. The Cowell Foundation has submitted .to the County a request for General Plan Amendment Study authorization while the City is nearing the project definition phase of it's General P1anlReview Program. The Discovery Bay West General Plan Amendment project is also a concern to the city. The land use issue of buffering between communities has recently been addressed by the City of Brentwood and the City of AAtioch. The County could add its voice to the discussion. In addition, it is appropriate for the city and the County to work toward imutual compliance with the provisions of Measure C (1988) in the development of future plans and projects. The County's interest in implementing the 65/35 Land Preservation Plan adopted by the voters in 1990 provides ample justification for the proposed joing planning process.
