BACKGROUNQ/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
The Pleasant Hill BART Specific Plan amendments of 1998 included a provision for a Community
Planning Program for the BART property(Areas 11/12). The CommunityPlanning Program was away
to learn from the past,to capture the interest of the present,and to direct it to realizing the significant
community development potential of the BART property at the Pleasant Hill Station. In the fall of 1999
a Community Planning Program was undertaken,however it failed to yield the desired results even'
though it had been conducted in a very professional and thorough manner.
The design charrette is to be undertaken in January and February, 2001. A final product will be
prepared at the conclusion. This final product would include most of the design/development
specifications necessary for submittal of a rezoningapplication by the BART developer. Can December
5, 2000 your Board approved a contract in an amount not to exceed $250,O00. Since that time
additional items have been added to the work scope,including inclusion of the Las Juntas Swim Club
site planning, refinement of the pedestrian/bicycle'overcressing design, and additional stakeholder
meetings. The additional scope adds approximately$26,000 to the contract costs.
