A
Good
evening,
everyone
today
is
tuesday
july
19th
2022.,
it's
5,
30
p.m,
and
we
are
in
a
special
meeting
of
the
cupertino
city
council
prior
to
our
regular
meeting,
which
will
be
at
6
45
in
the
special
meeting
tonight
we
have
a
study
session
on
the
lawrence
midi,
or
at
least
what
is
designated
right
now
as
the
lawrence
mini
park,
expansion
for
cupertino,
which
we
recently
annexed
into
the
city
of
cupertino.
So
all
thanks
to
our
staff
for
getting
that
job
done.
We'll
start
tonight
with
our
acting
city
manager,
diane,
thompson
diane.
A
C
D
Thank
you
for
the
introduction
it's
great
to
be
here,
and
this
is
an
exciting
project
and
one
that
we're
really
looking
forward
to
bringing
along.
I
think
we've
got
a
great
plan
for
you
tonight.
Lisa
camelli
is
our
project
manager
and
she'll
provide
the
presentation
for
us
tonight
in
in
conjunction
with
our
consultant
mig,
and
with
that
I'll
turn
it
right
over
to
lisa.
E
Good
evening,
mayor
and
council
members,
my
name
is
lisa
camelli
and
I'm
a
project
manager
in
the
cip
program.
Presenting
with
me
tonight
are
two
project
team
members
with
mig
consulting
jan
island
is
mig's
lead
project
manager
and
myrna.
Ortiz
is
mig's
public
outreach
specialist
we're
here
tonight
to
discuss
the
proposed
park
at
the
lawrence
committee
site,
we'll
be
presenting
our
findings
related
to
the
public
outreach
process
and
the
environmental
site
investigations
we've
conducted
for
the
project
next
slide
for
tonight's
agenda.
F
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Lisa
I'll
make
the
site
overview
brief.
As
I
know,
most
of
you
have
been
out
to
the
site
and
a
lot
of
background
information
has
been
shared
in
the
packet
tonight,
but
first
I'll
show
you
the
site.
Here
you
can
see
it's
pretty
long.
It's
a
half
mile
long
situated
between
saratoga
creek
on
the
west
side
and
the
lawrence
expressway
on
the
east
side,
with
280
just
to
the
north,
which
is
shown
here
on
this
side
on
the
right
side
of
the
image.
So
that's
north
to
the
right
and
the
south.
F
And
those
were
made
to
help
guide
what
possibilities
really
make
sense
for
this
particular
site,
given
what
what
we
have
to
work
with,
and
this
next
diagram
kind
of
simplifies
that
into
a
quick
graphic
summary
and
you
can
see
on
the
upper
diagram.
The
opportunities
include
existing
bike
and
pedestrian
connections.
F
And
then
you
can
see
on
the
bottom
half
of
the
slide,
the
challenges
which
are
the
lack
of
vehicle
access
and
the
lack
of
sound
barrier
on
most
of
the
site
and
in
terms
of
soil.
We
have
higher
lead
levels
along
the
expressway
edge.
We
have
impervious
surface
at
the
main
open
space
area
where
the
staging
site
was,
and
then
we
have
some
soil,
piles
and
soil
berms
along
the
creek
top
edges
that
are
currently
limiting
the
visibility
and
access
to
the
creek.
F
So,
in
addition
to
this
site
analysis,
we've
been
working
with
the
community
to
really
understand
their
vision
and
their
priorities
for
the
site.
So
we
make
sure
that
it
works
for
them
and
to
tell
you
more
about
what
we've
heard
from
them,
I'll
pass
it
on
to
myrna
ortiz
she's
our
lead
on
community
engagement
from
mig.
G
G
Over
the
last
couple
of
months.
We've
engaged
residents
across
different
activities
and
events,
some
in
partnership
with
the
city
and
other
community
partners
in
pop-up
events,
as
well
as
an
online
virtual
community
meeting
where
we
were
able
to
share
some
of
the
background
site
information
with
residents,
and
we
also
hosted
a
site
tour
at
the
actual
park
site
location,
allowing
residents
to
come
visit
and
experience
the
location
firsthand,
and
we
were
excited
to
meet
some
of
you
there
as
well.
G
We
were
also
able
to
host
an
online
survey
where
we
heard
from
over
560
responses,
most
of
them
residents
about
50
of
those
who
responded,
live
within
half
a
mile
of
the
site,
so
they're
familiar
with
the
trail
and
the
current
space
that's
available,
and
over
80
percent
of
them
were
residents
from
cupertino.
So
we
were
excited
to
hear
from
people
that
are
really
engaged
and
eager
to
see
this
site
come
to
fruition
next
slide.
G
We
also
heard
their
feedback
around
recreation
features
that
they'd
like
to
see
in
the
space,
including
nature
play
so
allowing
children
to
play
safely
and
experience
the
nature
as
they
enjoy
climbing
things
and
possibly
having
fitness
equipment
throughout
the
site
and
along
the
trails,
so
not
only
for
children,
but
also
for
adults
to
be
able
to
use
and
then
in
their
feedback
around
wildlife
and
nature
or
education
features.
Again.
G
Since
it
is
right
next
to
a
large
roadway,
we've
also
received
mixed
input
around
the
axis
of
dogs
on
site.
We
heard
both
from
people
that
want
to
support
dogs
being
off
leash
in
certain
areas
of
the
location
and
then
others
who
expressed
concerns
around
safety
and
wanting
dogs
to
stay
on
leash,
but
in
general,
people
were
really
excited.
Residents
want
to
see
this
park
come
to
their
community.
Many
residents
shared
that
they've
been
in
the
neighborhood
for
a
long
time.
They
know
the
trail.
G
F
So
here's
where
we
are
in
the
process
we've
gathered
the
community's
vision
for
the
site,
we've
studied
the
site
and
we
recently
presented
how
far
we've
come
so
far
with
joint
commission
got
feedback
from
them.
That
group
included
three
three
commissions
park
and
rec
bike
and
ped
and
planning
commissions
and
we'll
share
their
input
with
you
next
and
then
we
want
to
hear
comments
from
city
council
about
what
you
think
about
where
we're
headed
so
far.
F
So
then
after
we
after
tonight,
our
next
step
will
be
to
synthesize
all
of
this
into
three
concept:
alternatives
that
will
then
bring
back
to
the
community,
to
the
joint
commission
and
to
the
city
council
again
for
more
feedback.
So
then
we'll
hone
in
on
what
that
final
concept
plan.
Is
that
really
speaks
to
the
community
and
addresses
their
recreation
needs
and
we'll
come
up
with
that
final
concept
plan
from
the
joint
commission?
F
F
F
So
our
main
goal
is
to
add
park
space
to
the
east
side
of
cupertino,
and
we
don't
want
this
extension
to
slow
that
down.
So
we
have
a
proposal
that
we
create
a
park
space
that
ends
at
the
northern
edge
of
the
large
open
space
right
now,
and
that
the
design
also
allows
for
this
space.
For
that
north
connection
to
happen,
and
then
long
term,
the
city
can
explore
purchasing
a
property
along
the
creek.
F
If
that
becomes
available
and
also
keep
working
to
extend
the
trail
to
the
north
to
create
a
calvert
drive
or
a
stephens
creek
boulevard,
larger
loop,
so
we'll
be
working
kind
of
on
two
fronts
on
that,
and
next
topic
is
the
site
soils
we
had.
The
soils
were
sampled
by
cornerstone
earth
group
and
they
provided
an
assessment
and
development
options
for
each
category
that
you
see
on
the
slide
here.
F
First,
the
soils
along
the
edge
of
the
expressway
do
have
elevated
lead
levels
and
that's
from
gasoline
exhaust
from
the
past
when
gas
contained
lead
and
that's
right
along
the
20-foot
strip.
Right
next
to
the
expressway
and
they've
told
us,
there's
not
a
requirement
to
remove
the
soil
and
there's
several
ways
to
deal
with
that.
So
what
we're
thinking
is
that
the
most
reasonable
place
for
the
bike
trail
would
be
to
be
closer
to
the
expressway
anyways
to
allow
more
of
the
nature
activities
closer
to
the
creek.
F
Those
don't
have
any
environmental
concerns
beyond
just
removing
some
large,
concrete
chunks
that
were
left
over
from
the
staging
days.
So
that's
actually
an
opportunity.
We
can
take
out
the
concrete
and
then
we
can
use
that
on
site
for
any
kind
of
grading.
We
want
to
do
which
would
be
perfect
for
doing
the
two
feet
of
cover
along
the
expressway
edge
and
then
same
thing
for
the
soil
berms
along
the
top
of
the
creek
bank.
Those
were
pushed
up
during
the
staging
days.
F
You
know
extra
extra
room
was
needed
and
was
just
pushed
up
against
the
creek
bank
right
now,
there's
some
mature
trees
growing
in
that
soil
room.
So
we
can
we
plan
to
remove
a
great
deal
of
the
berm
and
there
might
be
a
few
places
where
we
need
to
leave
it
where
there's
some
very
mature
tree
roots.
There's
also
the
possibility
of
hand
digging
around
some
of
those
and
keeping
the
trees
and
removing
the
berm.
F
And
the
next
issue
we
have
is
noise,
you've
all
driven
the
expressway
and
been
on
the
on
the
existing
trail.
It's
pretty
high
speeds
there,
so
we
know
that
some
type
of
barrier
is
needed.
We
heard
that
from
everyone
that
we
spoke
with
that
both
to
reduce
the
noise
and
provide
safety
for
moving
cars.
We
want
to
provide
some
kind
of
barrier,
so
we
propose
moving
forward
that
we
show
since
we're
doing
three
alternatives.
F
So
we'll
hear
what
the
public
thinks
about
those
three
and
we'll
see
what
trade-offs
are
created
by
the
different
costs
of
the
three
alternatives
too.
You
know
everyone
wants
everything,
but
if
we
save
a
little
money
on
the
sound
wall,
that's
more
for
recreation,
so
there's
always
trade-offs
that
exist.
F
That
would
be
a
trade-off
situation
like
how
important
is
the
restroom
to
the
community
and
what
else
do
you
get
if
you
don't
have
to
pay
for
that
restroom?
So
these
are
all
things
we'll
find
out
and
then
also
lighting
was
a
kind
of
a
mixed
review
on
lighting
in
terms
of
commons.
A
lot
of
people
want
it
for
safety.
F
The
current
trail
does
not
include
lighting
and
wildlife
considerations
would
make
us
lean
towards
not
having
lighting.
So
I
think
we're
going
to
need
to
do
a
balanced
approach
to
this
and
probably
include
some
lighting
at,
for
instance,
the
restroom,
but
locate
any
lighting
further
from
the
crate
and
then.
Lastly,
our
last
topic.
Recreation
features
the
one
we're
most
excited
about
the
things
that
the
community
is
going
to
get
excited
about
and
we're
expecting
that
all
of
the
three
alternatives
will
have
this
kind
of
baseline
level
of
the
community's
top
priorities.
F
That
would
be
like
what
murder
mentioned:
shade:
seating
and
paths,
some
play
and
fitness
and
an
emphasis
on
nature
and
education
features
and
then
beyond
that,
each
concept
will
provide
some
unique
features
and
a
unique
emphasis
so
that
in
the
next
round
of
feedback,
we
can
really
identify
the
community's
priorities
and
really
kind
of
zero.
In
on
one
plan
that
we're
going
to
move
forward
with.
F
And
also
not
to
forget
that
each
with
each
scheme
will
kind
of
circle
back
and
make
sure
that
each
scheme
provides
opportunities
for
each
age
group.
In
each
concept.
We
don't
want
to
make
something:
that's
only
good
for
the
small
kids.
We
want
to
also
address
the
teens
and
the
elderly,
the
adults.
So
it's
a
place
that
the
whole
community
can
come
together
at.
F
And
that's
it.
We
tried
to
condense
condense
everything
so
that
we
could
make
sure
we
hear
all
of
your
comments.
We're
really
excited
to
move
this
project
forward
and
hear
what
you
think,
as
we
discuss
I'm
happy
to
pull
up
other
slides
that
I
move
through
too
quickly.
So
just
let
me
know
if
you
want
me
to
go
back
and
I
will
pass
it
to
mayor
paul
to
start
the
discussion.
A
Thank
you
to
your
colleague
myra,
and
we're
also
very
grateful,
of
course,
to
our
city
staff
for
lisa,
for
taking
on
this
project,
and
it's
just
a
wonderful
thing
to
see
this
space
moving
forward
for
that
part
of
our
city.
So,
as
we
normally
do
we'll
go
to
our
members
of
the
public
and
take
comment,
I
do
see
two
hands
raised
in
zoom
right
now.
A
They
are
from
jill
halloran
and
from
jennifer,
and
now
we
have
ronnie
fisher
as
well
as
lisa
warren,
and
so,
with
regard
to
the
public
comment,
everyone
will
have
three
minutes
each
and
please
have
your
hand
raised
and
zoom
before
the
first
person
is
done
speaking.
You
have
two
other
methods
of
being
able
to
give
public
comment
at
a
cupertino
council
meeting
and
if
you're
live
here
you
have
to
fill
out
a
blue
card.
Please
do
that
within
the
time
that
the
first
person
is
speaking
and
then
you
can
also
email
our
city
clerk.
A
H
H
As
far
as
you
know,
I
know
it's
delicate
balance
of
safety,
recreation
and
so
on,
but
I
appreciate
the
considerations
about
the
lighting
and
I'm
pleased
to
hear
that
you'll
be
doing
minimal
lighting
because
of
course,
as
you
know,
lighting
does
disturb
wildlife
and
there's
just
so
much
light
in
this
area
and
I'm
hoping
that
the
lighting
will
be
at
a
minimum
and
I'm
pleased
about
so
many
of
the
things
I
I
heard
I
just
want
to
just
add.
I
just
want
to
emphasize
that
adding
to
the
tree.
H
H
A
I
Here
I
was
babbling
along.
I
was
thanking
the
consultant
and
darcy
and
everyone
and
everyone's
just
been
a
joy
to
work
with
absolutely
professional.
The
consultants
have
done
a
fantastic
job.
Public
works,
they
they
understand
the
sensitivity
of
this
and
how
much
the
area
has
looked
forward
to
having
additional
park
land,
and
I'm
just
I'm
really
really
pleased
with
how
this
is
rolled
along.
I
I
I
just
had
a
few
comments,
I'm
so
I'm
just
blown
away
by
the
number
of
oak
trees
in
that
creek.
It's
just
insane.
There
must
be
stuff,
it's
due
to
300
years
old,
it's
like
it's
just
like
nirvana
anyway.
I
just
want
to
have
just
a
couple
of
comments.
I
I
think
that
that's
wonderful
about
the
keeping
having
seating
and
a
riparian
corridor,
and
yes,
the
bike
lane
put
it
near
lawrence.
I
think
that
will
be
easier
for
folks
who
are
cycling
through.
I
just
wanted
to
make
a
comment.
I
I
You
know
I'm
low
whatever
I'm
one
of
my
main
concerns
is
making
sure
that
people
feel
safe
in
this
area
and-
and
that
would
mean
you
know
like
there
are
things
that
happen
in
this
area,
and
I
I
think
it's
a
good
idea
to
possibly
have
an
emergency
phone
there.
We
have
them
at
san
jose
state
where
people
could
call
on
them
at
night.
If
something
happened,
I'm
just
throwing
that
out
there.
I
In
terms
of
I
really
like
your
ideas
about
the
sound
wall,
my
husband
threw
in
that
remember
anything
that
goes
up
will
be
tagged
that
I
mean
graffiti
and
tagging
have
been
prolific
in
this
area
and
we
need
to
remember
that
and
if
you
guys
can
have
some
eyes
from
lawrence
traffic
going
by
looking
at
what's
going
on
in
the
park
it.
It
helps
in
terms
that
if
somebody
sees
something
going
on,
they
can
report
it
and
then
I'll
just
mention.
Oh
the
part
about.
I
love
dogs.
I
We
had
dogs
growing
up,
we
had
german
shepherd
and
a
chihuahua
etc.
The
only
thing
I
will
say
is
people
need
to
remember.
We
do
have
coyotes
in
our
area.
My
mother-in-law
had
heard
on
next
door
around
the
corner
from
her
house.
There
were
four
coyote
coyote
family
that
followed
people
at
midnight,
walking
a
dog
at
bollinger
and
I'm
sorry,
hyde
and
miller
and
bollinger.
This
was
on
next
door,
but
I
think
keeping
dogs
on
leash
is
a
much
better
idea
because
we
may
lose
little
dogs
whatever
we
won't
go
there
and
also.
A
J
Thank
you,
I'm
actually
a
resident
of
sunnyvale,
but
I
live
five
miles
north
on
lawrence
just
off
of
lawrence,
and
I
want
to
thank
you
so
much
for
all
your
thoughtful
work.
I,
like
your
plan
to
minimize
lighting,
it's
so
important
for
insects
and
birds,
and
I
really
appreciate
that
because
I
don't
see
that
sensitivity
around
my
house
here,
I
like
the
emphasis
on
native
plants,
which
is
so
crucial
to
the
insect
population.
The
caterpillars
have
to
have
these
certain
plants
with
which
they've
evolved.
J
K
Thank
you.
I
know
this
project
has
been
a
long
time
in
the
coming
and
it's
really
exciting
to
see
it
actually.
Looking
like
it's
going
to
happen,
so
I
think
everyone
in
the
past
who
has
had
anything
to
do
with
it
that
may
no
longer
be
around
or
involved,
and
I
thank
everybody
here
and
I
for
one
I'm
going
to
say.
K
First,
I
want
the
name
of
the
park
changed,
and
I've
talked
about
that
before
I
don't
know
if
that's
being
discussed,
but
if
it
is
I'd
like
to
know
great,
I
I
agree
these
consultants,
my
first
exposure
to
some
of
them
in
person,
was
at
the
open
house
at
the
site
when
there
were
the
stations
and
everyone
there
was
able
to
ask
and
excuse
me
able
to
answer
questions.
I
listened
to
other
people's
questions,
my
own
questions.
K
K
Any
addition
or
cleanup
of
the
existing
tree
canopy
is
great
healthy
cleanup.
The
bike
path
should
definitely
be
closer
to
the
road.
In
my
opinion,
I
like
to
jennifer's
idea
of
an
emergency
phone
actually,
which
I
had
never
thought
of
myself,
and
I
do
remember
from
one
of
the
meetings
I
believe
I've
been
at
all
of
them.
K
K
So
I
know
there's
more
discussion
to
be
made
around
that,
but
that's
just
what
I'm
thinking
and
I
think
that's
it
except
for
I.
I
was
also
pleased
by
the
number
of
people
that
that
participated
in
some
of
these
info
gathering
events
and
it
seemed
like
when
you
were
talking
to
people
in
a
group,
even
if
they
had
different
ideas.
They
were
very
open
and
and
giving
feedback
there
wasn't
a
nastiness
in
the
bunch.
Thank
you
thank.
L
Just
short,
oh
I'm
so
excited
about
this.
I
mean
it's
just
amazing.
What's
happened,
and
it's
anyway
thank
you,
city,
council
and
staff
and
consultants,
but
as
a
senior
as
a
a
retired
registered
nurse.
As
a
former
girl
scout,
my
priorities
would
be
a
restroom,
it's
kind
of
important
for
some
of
us.
It's
also
something
like
like
jolly
man
with
a
few
items
that
are
accessible
to
all.
L
I
think
this
is
a
golden
opportunity
to
put
something
in
there
and
maybe
not
a
whole
park
with
just
a
few
items
that
would
be
really
great
and
it
in
the
in
the
wall
I
mean
you
can
make
a
varied
wall,
I
mean
you
could
have
a
wall
with
vines.
You
can
have
different
types
of
structure,
different
types
of
masonry,
whatever
I
mean
a
wall
could
be
very
exciting.
L
A
M
First,
one
is
from
caitlin
wong
dear
mayor
vice
mayor
and
city
council.
I
am
so
happy
that
we
will
have
a
new
park
on
the
east
side
of
cupertino
near
my
house.
Thank
you,
mayor,
paul
for
being
the
driving
force
to
get
this
done.
The
new
park
should
be
named
darcy
paul
park
for
hopefully
not
for
another
50
years
or
so,
but
hopefully
not
for
another
50
years
or
so.
I
hope
that
there
can
be
a
fenced-in
area
for
off-leash
dogs
as
part
of
the
new
park.
M
I
currently
take
my
golden
retrievers
all
the
way
across
town
to
the
jolly
man
park
off
leash
dog
area
or
drive
even
further
to
sunnyvale.
We
need
an
off-leash
dog
area
on
the
east
side
of
town.
I
know
that
it
will
take
many
years
to
develop
this
park,
but
I
plan
to
be
in
cupertino
for
a
long
time.
A
big
thank
you
to
the
city
council
for
all.
M
You
do
to
make
cupertino
a
wonderful
place
to
live,
think
you
have
a
tough
job
and
receive
a
lot
of
unfair
attacks
from
special
interest
groups
and
the
media.
But
you
persevere,
keep
up
the
great
work,
caitlyn
wong
cupertino
resident,
and
I
have
one
more
from
eac,
chair,
annie,
anna
yang
good
evening,
mayor
paul
and
council
members.
My
name
is
annie
yang
and
I'm
the
chair
of
the
environmental
action
committee
of
the
santa
clara
valley,
audubon
society.
I
am
also
a
cupertino
resident.
M
M
As
mentioned
in
the
environmental
summary
report,
the
site
is
adjacent
to
saratoga
creek,
an
important
wildlife
corridor
that
runs
through
the
largely
developed
areas
that
lack
natural
space
for
resident
and
migratory
species
to
shelter,
forage
and
breed.
In
fact,
one
california
species
of
special
concern
has
been
identified
as
using
the
area.
Now
once
the
park
has
developed,
I
am
sure
more
species,
special
status
or
otherwise
will
also
be
found
in
the
park.
M
Therefore,
in
order
to
protect
the
ecosystem
and
allow
for
safe
recreation,
I
encourage
three
things
number
one,
please
plant
all
native
trees
and
plants
appropriate
to
the
riparian
habitat
of
saratoga
creek.
Please
also
protect
the
existing
native
trees
that
are,
there
number
two
put
trails
as
far
away
from
the
creek
as
possible.
I've
walked
on
trails
in
south
bay
that
are
too
close
to
the
water,
and
you
can
see
inevitable
bits
of
trash
and
trampling
by
humans
or
pets
along
the
banks.
Finally,
please
do
not
put
artificial
lighting
at
the
park.
M
The
city
council,
members
of
of
the
public
and
environmental
experts
have
all
discussed
here
previously
the
dangers
of
artificial
light
at
night
to
birds,
insects
and
the
ecosystem,
especially
in
sensitive
areas
such
as
the
location
of
this
park.
Again,
I
am
looking
forward
to
seeing
healthy
natural
habitat
thrive
in
lawrence
many
park.
Thank
you,
annie
yang.
A
N
Thank
you,
mayor
paul,
and
that
was
a
wonderful
report.
I
I
enjoyed
reading
it
very
much.
I
I
believe
the
the
member
of
the
audubon
society
was
referring
to
the
dusky
footed
wood
rat
and
I
did
not
notice
the
the
middens
when
I
went
out.
I
hope
I'm
pronouncing
that
correctly,
but
apparently
there's
11
there
on
the
site,
I'd
like
to
know
a
little
bit
about
what
they
look
like
so
in
case
we're
out
again
we
were
able
to
spot
them.
N
N
That
was
something
that
we
had
discussed
a
few
years
ago
on
the
planning
commission
as
a
potential
project.
Let's
see,
I
was
wondering
about
the
california
model:
water,
efficient,
landscape,
ordinance.
This
is
really
a
question
for
our
staff
and
whether
or
not
this
is
something
that
we
have
to
apply
to
all
of
our
projects.
Kind
of
in
general.
I'm
curious
about
that.
N
N
So
I'd
like
to
to
know
how
it's
going
for
them
and
what
the
difference
is
there,
I'm
concerned
about
having
a
trash,
pickup
and
taking
care
of
a
restroom
there
and
and
how
that's
going
to
work
with
regards
to
access,
and
we
don't
want
to
encourage
people
to
be
leaving
trash
and
picnic
items.
If,
if
that's
going
to
become
a
hassle,
so
I
I
do
really
appreciate
the
suggestion
of
having
a
arrest
room
on
the
sterling
barnhart
site,
but
it
that
might
because
it's
very
small,
become
problematic
for
the
neighbors
living
around
that
area.
N
So
I
want
to
be
very
mindful
to
to
the
people
who
are
going
to
be
impacted
by
by
that
and
if
it's
going
to
be
attracting
more
more
travel
there.
I
want
to
be
careful
with
that
and
would
like
to
see.
The
support
of
pollinators
in
particular
native
plants
would
be
wonderful.
Going
back
to
the
contamination.
N
N
But
if,
if
there
is
some
will
to
have
a
community
garden,
then
we're,
I
think
we
might
want
to
look
at
the
removal
which
is
going
to
increase
the
cost.
So
I
think
I'd
like
to
look
at
hear
a
little
bit
more
about
that
as
well.
So
I
have
a
few
questions
in
there
and
I'm
really
excited
about
this
moving
forward
and
the
report's
excellent
so
keep
up
the
good
work.
A
Great,
thank
you
very
much,
councilmember
moore
and
let
me
go
to
our
staff
or
consultants
at
this
point.
Customer
marshal
is
about
a
minute
or
so
in
our
allocation.
Do
anyone
want
to
speak
to
any
of
the
comments
or
questions
posed
by
councilmember
moore
on
on
this?
So
well,
maybe
maybe
the
flow
of
the
conversation
will
kind
of
bring
that
out,
but
I
do
have
other
council
members
that
have
their
hands
raised
at
this
point.
So
let
me
go
to
vice
mayor
ciao,
followed
by
councilmember
away,
so
vice
mayor
ciao,
welcome.
O
O
Just
one
comment
that
the
summary
report
did
not
include
the
appendices,
so
it
would
be,
it
would
be
great
if
it
could
be
included.
I
understand
it
has
you
provided
the
fact
sheet
to
the
visitors
and
the
other
materials
for
the
people?
I
I
think
it's
great
that
you
provided
a
lot
of
information
for
people
to
comment
on,
and
so
I
okay,
I
think,
yeah.
It's
a
really
good
idea
to
have
emergency
phone
along
the
trail
and
in
terms
of
restrooms.
O
I
wonder
if
we
could
know
what
restrooms
are
there
at
the
existing
trailhead
there
are
parks
around
so
that
we
know
where
are
the
existing
restrooms,
how
far
they
are
from
the
trailhead?
That
would
be
helpful
and
for
the
sound
wall.
I
actually
recently
walked
the
trail.
The
stephens
creek
trail
from
mountain
view
for
about
two
hours
and
it
has
all
kinds
of
sound
walls
between
no
sound
war.
O
It
was
really
noisy
when
there
is
only
trend,
link
fans
and
with
some
wall
sound
wall
it
helps,
but
still
quite
noisy
and
noise
only
comes
down
when
there
is
a
big
difference,
distance
for
the
trail
from
the
from
the
expressway,
but
I
think
that's
not
an
option
for
us
here.
We
do
want
the
creek
to
be
closer
to
loris,
as
we
want
that
to
be
away
from
creek,
then
some
good
sound
world
is
an
option,
but
then
I
also
am
concerned
because
it's
a
very
narrow
trail.
O
If
it's
a
concrete,
sound
wall,
how
safe
it
is
in
case
something
happens,
there
is
no
escape
and
right
now
I
think
most
of
the
lens
doesn't
have
any
sound
wall,
so
at
least
it's
transparent,
it's
visible
from
lawrence,
so
there
is
plus
and
minus.
So
I
wish
to
see
options
for
that,
and
also,
I
think,
besides
the
trail,
I
would
like
to
also
provide
some
ideas
for
the
open
space
the
park
that
we
have.
O
O
So
this
is
one
example
that
you
can
have
some
kind
of
skating
around,
but
then
it's
all
under
three
canopy,
so
the
existing
open
space
doesn't
have
a
lot
of
trees,
but
we
could
potentially
clean
more
trees
to
so
that
it's
really
a
skate
park
under
trees,
and
this
is
another
example-
it's
mostly
dirt,
but
they
could
be
under
a
canopy
of
trees
and
it
doesn't
have
to
be
concrete.
It
could
be
just
dirt
tracks,
and
this
is
another
example
where
it's
not
really
dirt.
O
But
then
it's
some
thing
that
add
the
curves
for
for
practice.
So
that's
another
example
so
on
to
this,
or
some
other
example
of
potential
ramps.
Because
I
understand
this
is
the
part
where
we
can
avoid
that
it's
going
to
be
noisy
and
the
bmx
part
skatepark
is
going
to
be
noisy.
People
usually
are
concerned
of
noise
from
skatepark,
and
so
why
not
put
them
right
next
to
lawrence?
O
And
then
maybe
the
seniors
can
have
a
sitting
area
and
watch
the
kids
play
on
their
skateboard.
So
maybe
there
is
a
mix
that
we
could
have.
So
I
think
we
have
plenty
of
other
nature
area
that
people
can
quietly
sit
and
enjoy
nature,
but
this
might
not
be
that
place
because
it's
really
not
quiet,
so
maybe
let's
take
advantage
of
what
it
offers
just
an
option:
yeah,
okay,
bye!
A
P
All
right,
thank
you,
mayor
paul,
and
so
I
too
like
to
thank
the
staff
and
the
consultant
for
a
good
job
and
all
for
the
participants
that
put
their
opinions
now
that
we
know
more
about
this
park,
the
you
know
the
shortcomings
and
also
the
opportunities,
so
I
do
believe
whatever
we
decide
or
the
consultant
is
going
to
bring
two
or
three
proposals
that
it's
important
for
the
neighborhood
to
respond.
You
know
because
this
is
still
enabled
neighborhood
park
and
I
think
we
have
to
recognize
parking
access.
Safety.
P
Noise
can
be
an
issue
for
the
neighborhood,
so
I
do
think
that
we
need
to
do
extensive
outreach
to
the
neighborhood,
immediate
neighborhood
so
that
they
are
aware
what's
happening
and
they
are
their
opinions
and
their
comfort
level
can
be
addressed.
So
that's
my
major
concern
and
the
other
concern
is,
I
think
everybody
recognize
it,
but
I
think
safety
is
a
major
concern
that
access,
if
there's
emergency,
how
do
you
access
to
just
for
emergency
people
to
go
in?
P
So
I
think
that's
in
the
design
that
needs
to
be
really
really
carefully
considered
and
as
to
plans.
We
are
in
an
extreme
drought
season
and
I
think
drought
is
not
going
to
go
away
so
if,
during
design,
we
need
to
keep
in
mind.
Yes,
we
love
greens,
we
love
big
trees,
but
how
are
we
going
to
adhere
to
valley
waters?
P
You
know,
suggestions
and
recommendations
like
because
remember,
katie
moore
said
how
we're
going
to
adjust.
You
know,
adhere
to
street
water
conservation
plans.
I
think
that's
a
major
component
too.
This
is
a
great
place
if
we
can
make
it
a
great
place,
but
with
everybody's
input,
and
I
especially
care
about
what
the
neighborhood
thinks
about.
What's
going
to
come
up,
so
thank
you.
Q
I
think
we've
all
been
so
anxious
for
so
long
about
moving
this
along,
and
so
I
think
my
my
comments
would
start
off
with
something
similar
to
what
I
was
just
talking
about,
and
that
is
what's
the
roadmap
look
like
I
mean
I
think
for
us
and
for
the
residents
six
months.
12
months
I
mean
tonight
was
a
great
update.
The
a
lot
of
the
items
issues
concerns
the
outreach
things
of
that
nature,
but
from
a
road
map
standpoint.
Q
Where
do
you
think
we're
going
to
be
in
six
months
and
in
a
year
when
do
we
think
we'll
actually
have
some
space?
That's
available
that
we
could
start
taking
down
the
the
fence
that
keeps
keeps
the
residents
out
of
this
area,
so
I
I
would
hope
that
you
could
give
us
an
idea
of
that
road
map.
You
know
just
a
rough
one
tonight.
Q
Q
This
is
a
pretty
unique
location
which
is
pretty
isolated,
and
so
maybe
in
the
next
update,
you
could
share
with
us
how
safety
and
crime
would
be
addressed.
How
will
the
sheriff's
department
be
able
to
patrol
this
things
of
that
nature,
the
the
berms
and
sound
walls?
I
definitely
like
the
concept
of
the
berms.
Q
Q
What
can
we
learn
from
john
morgan
park?
I
guess
both
safety
and
and
the
berm
berm
features
and
so
I'll
leave
that
at
that
stop
sharing
and
the
last
in
important
comment.
Thank
you,
mayor
paul
for
being
a
champion
of
this.
I
would
think
that,
had
you
not
been
that
champion,
this
would
not
be
where
it
is
today
and
I'd
be
disappointed
if
it
never
happened,
but
I
don't
think
it
would
have
been
anywhere
close
to
where
it
is
today.
Q
A
Well,
thank
you
very
much
councilmember
willie
and
let
me
go
ahead
and
thank
you
for
your
last
comment.
I
I
really
appreciate
it
and
let
me
thank
the
member
of
the
public
caitlyn
wong,
who
mentioned,
I
think
in
50
years,
maybe
naming
it
after
me
and
I
I
appreciate
the
sentiment
there.
I
hope
I
live
to
96
or
older
as
well,
but
I
I
think
it
also
kind
of
keeps
me
motivated
to
keep
contributing
to
the
community
for
a
good
long
time.
O
A
A
My
first
exposure
was
with
the
blackberry
farm
corridor
master
plan
and
then,
of
course,
we
ended
up
using
mig
for
the
citywide
master
plan,
which
kind
of
came
about
as
a
result
of
a
lot
of
the
public
discussions
on
that.
But
I
think
you
know
personally,
I
I
think
this
is
kind
of
the
crown
jewel
of
your
work
and
insofar
as
I've
seen
it
over
the
course
of
the
last
10
years,
which
has
all
been
very
good,
but
this
is
this
is
an
amazing
process
that
you're
kicking
off
for
us.
A
I'm
very
grateful
to
our
city
staff
for
coordinating-
and
you
know
it
looks
like
this-
is
going
to
be
a
really
good
regional
connector,
in
addition
to
a
much
needed
green
space
and
park
space
that
will
be
available
on
the
eastern
side
of
cupertino.
So
let
me
ask
my
questions
here,
kind
of
dovetailing
off
of
a
couple
of
comments
that
have
been
made.
What
is
the
timetable
that
we're
looking
at
here
and
I
I
realize
that
it's
you
know
kind
of
difficult.
A
Given
this
sort
of
you
know
overarching,
you
know
large
project
fairly
significant
amount
of
space,
but
you
know
to
to
those
you
know
general
questions.
Are
we
looking
at
an
opening,
perhaps
years
down
the
line,
or
is
it
kind
of
more
nebulous
at
this
point?
What
kind
of
overall
timetable
are
we
looking
at
and
anyone
feel
free
just
to
chime
in
and
answer
because
I'll
just
shoot
off
a
few
questions
here.
D
Thanks
amanda
I'll
I'll
start
with
this
one,
and
I
think
lisa
can
can
support
me
on
the
question.
So
big
picture
we're
looking
to
narrow
this
down
to
to
a
final
design
by
the
end
of
the
of
the
calendar
year,
so
that
the
big
efforts
that
gets
us
there
is
lots
of
public
outreach.
We
heard
that
in
the
council
comments
so
we'll
continue
that
what
I
would
call
a
robust
effort
at
community
outreach
to
make
sure
that
we
got
that
we
have
that
engagement,
okay
and
towards
the
end
of
the
year.
D
That
would
lead
us
into
sort
of
the
middle
of
next
calendar
year
of
having
sql
clearance,
and
once
we
have
sql
clearance,
we're
able
to
move
towards
towards
construction.
We
are
likely
to
have
some
permitting
needs
with
this
project
with
with
the
creek
being
present.
So
that's
going
to
add
a
little
bit
of
time
there
when
we're
working
with
state
organizations,
but
that
that
will
be
part
of
the
process
as
well.
D
E
I
I
think,
that's
a
pretty
good
target
and
it
I'll
just
add
the
caveats
in
there
and
right
off
of
what
matt
has
said.
You
know
jurisdictional
issues,
some
of
the
comments
that
were
made
associated
with
sort
of
utilizing,
for
example
the
stormwater
runoff
from
lawrence
midi,
that's
a
whole
different.
It's
it's
a
whole
different
process
to
to
negotiate
with
jurisdictions,
which
tend
to
add
time
to
to
a
project
those.
A
Got
it
got
it?
Well?
I
really
appreciate
that.
So
let
me
do
this
here.
I
have
a
couple
of
other
questions.
Let
me
sort
of
pick
and
choose
as
to
which
one
in
the
interest
of
time
we
we
conducted
a
cleanup
of
this
area
in
terms
of
a
volunteer
group
of
people
in
the
last
couple
of
months
in
your
kind
of
study
of
this
space.
You
know
it's
a
it's
a
couple
of
acres
up
there
in
the
triangular
parcel.
A
A
Do
you
have
any
thoughts
on
cleanup
and
how
we
can
help
as
a
community
prepare
the
space
and
perhaps
maintain
the
space
or
were
there?
You
know
kind
of
investigations
into
that
aspect
of
the
you
know
overall
plan
here,
because
I'm
sure
that
we
would
be
very
happy
in
talking
about
activating
the
neighbors.
We
actually
ended
up
getting
a
person
just
randomly
walking
in
in
our
cleanup
a
70
something
year
old
gentleman
who
lived
literally
right
across
the
creek,
and
he
helped
us
for
three
hours
clean
up
the
space.
A
So
I
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
active
interest
in
the
direct
neighborhood,
but
in
terms
of
that,
is
there
any
recommendation
as
to
how
to
proceed,
because
otherwise,
we
might
just
say
hey.
You
know,
let's
have
another
cleanup
day
and
you
know
kind
of
think
about
it
in
terms
of
just
trying
to
support
it
tangentially,
but
if
there's
anything
that
we
can
actively
do
to
work
together
on
it
happy
to
do
so,.
D
So
I
think
the
the
last
cleanup
that
you
orchestrated
was
amazingly
successful
and
you
all
pulled
out
much
more
than
we
thought
was
ever
going
to
be
possible
in
that
site.
In
that
short
amount
of
time.
We
do
think
that
this
will
be
a
great
opportunity,
a
great
location
for
the
next,
the
sort
of
the
annual
creek
cleanup,
and
I
think
we
have
another
one
coming
up
all
timeline.
As
I
recall.
D
Typically,
we
would
look
at
calabasas
there's
some
work
going
on
there
with
valley
water,
so
we
would
want
a
an
alternate
location,
and
this
might
be
that
ideal
location.
I
think
that
might
be
in
september
sometime
so
so
we
would
focus
there
so
that,
yes,
I
think
the
answer
to
your
question
is
another
cleanup
at
this
site
is
probably
inevitable
and
something
that
we
would
engage.
The
community,
I
think,
is
a
great
as
you
as
you
led
with
it's
a
great
opportunity
to
to
build
the
community
interest
in
the
project.
A
Okay,
wonderful
and
then
finally,
the
only
comment
I'll
make
on
this
is,
I
think,
if
you're
looking
at
the
northern
end
of
it,
it
probably
is
a
really
good
site
for
future
connectivity.
So
as
we're
thinking
about
how
to
design
out
the
space,
I
hope
that
there
is
you
know
some
design
with
an
eye
in
mind
on
opportunities
in
the
future
right.
So,
for
example,
measure
b
funding
might
come
and
visit
upon
the
highway
280
lawrence
expressway,
stevens
creek
boulevard.
A
That
whole
kind
of
you
know
connectivity
triangle
in
which
some
in
full
space
has
been
used
to
make
office
buildings,
for
instance.
So
there
are
some
challenges,
of
course,
but
just
to
be
able
to
say,
hey
we're
extending
the
saratoga
creek
north
and
that
whole
kind
of
triangular
you
know
kind
of
meeting
of
three
different
major
thoroughfares
might
be
able
to
present
us
with
an
opportunity
in
the
future
to
connect
that
entire
region
of
the
area
to
you
know
that
the
other
part
of
of
the
south
bay.
A
So
I'm
not
saying
that
this
is
just
going
to
be
turning
into
a
connector,
of
course,
but
I
I
think
if
we
do
it
thoughtfully,
I
mean
especially
with
something
like
vice
mayor
chow's,
suggestion
of
the
skate
park,
kind
of
synergized
with
canopy,
and
possibly
you
know
thinking
thoughtfully
about
the
spaces
that
we
could
provide
for
people
such
as
seniors
to
to
visit.
You
know
just
all
these
various
aspects,
I'm
so
pleased
and
thank
you
so
very
much
for
you
know
thinking
through
obviously
very
thoroughly
the
various
aspects
here.
A
It's
it's
not
an
easy
space.
It's
not
easy
space
at
all,
but
it's
just
such
a
pleasure
to
look
at
this
presentation
and
to
read
the
materials
and
realize
that,
finally,
after
decades,
you
know-
I
can't
take
the
credit
for
this.
You
know,
certainly
not
not
the
sub-totality
of
it
after
decades
of
work
from
the
community
and
a
lot
of
appetite
we're.
A
You
know
really
proving
that
the
east
side
of
cupertino
can
have
a
space
like
this
and
not
compromise
any
of
the
you
know,
services
on
you
know
any
other
parts
of
the
city,
and
so
in
fact,
if
you,
if
you
look
at
it,
our
our
services
and
spaces
have
been
enhanced
all
the
way
across
the
board.
So
thank
you
so
much
for
being
that
critical
element
of
showing
that
that
can
be
done
and
a
lot
of
work,
of
course,
and
we'll
keep
on
doing
that
work.
A
D
O
A
Okay,
absolutely
just
one
one
moment,
one
one
speaker
time
thing.
So
let
me
let
me
do
this.
I
I
neglected
to
look
to
my
left,
so
thank
you
very
much,
councilmember
moore,
so
vice
mayor
chow,
why
don't
you
take
a
couple
minutes?
Councilman
moore,
you
take
a
couple
minutes
and
then
we'll
have
a
wrap-up
from
director
morley.
So
vice.
O
President,
thank
you
first
echo,
council,
member
with
his
comments.
I
think
without
mayor
paul,
keep
pushing
and
this
would
not
be
possible.
There
were
a
lot
of
obstacles
and
the
staff
really
helped
to
make
this
happen
and
two
questions.
First.
The
one
comment
that
was
brought
up
by
one
of
this
public
is
a
history
of
cherry
trees.
I
wasn't
sure
what's
that,
but
if
we
could
include
some
kind
of
history
along
the
trail,
maybe
of
native
trees
or
cherry
trees,
that
would
be
nice
and
the
second.
O
When
we
did
the
quick
cleanup,
I
find
that
if
we
were,
I
was
we
were
walking
in
the
creek
bed.
There
was
no
noise,
it
was
totally
enjoyable
and
so
how
feasible
it
is
or
viable
to
be
able
to
open
the
creek
bed
to
be
accessible
to
visitors,
even
when
during
the
dry
season,
when
there
were
no
water
or
dirt,
when
there
were
water
that
could
be
accessible
without
disturbing
the
the
wildlife
of
course,
so
that
if
that
could
be
explored,
that
would
be
great.
Thank
you.
N
Thank
you,
mayor
paul,
so
there
was
a
statement
in
the
report
talking
about
protected
trees
having
either
a
one-to-one
or
a
two-to-one
replacement
ratio,
and
I
wasn't.
I
wasn't
really
clear
on
what
what
that
meant.
I
do
want
to
see
that
the
the
valley
oak
number
172
is
saved.
I
hope
you,
I
hope,
you're
able
to
do
that
and
because
you
got
you
have
so
many
respondents
that
I
really.
I
hope
that
the
that
the
prioritization
which
the
the
residents
and
and
the
surrounding
community
provided
that
that's
kept
intact.
N
So
bringing
that
up
item
one
was
nature
play
then
things
to
climb,
and
then
fitness
equipment
area
or
or
or
a
course.
So
I
I
hope
that
you
maintain
the
integrity
of
the
the
the
replies
which
you
got
so
if
someone
could
respond
to
about
the
protected
trees,
the
one
to
one
or
the
two
to
one
ratio,
I'd
love
to
hear
it
and
I
think
it's
great,
I'm
hoping
that
you
bring
do,
do
replace
them
and
get
as
tall
a
canopy
as
possible.
I
think
it'd
be
wonderful.
A
F
F
N
Sure,
thank
you.
When
would
we
be
making
input
regarding,
for
instance,
if
we
were
to
want
brightly
colored
playground
equipment
which
isn't
naturalistic
looking
versus
naturalistic
nature
colored
items
in
in
the
park?
Would
this?
Would
this
be
the
time
to
make
that
request,
because
I
would
be
asking
for
the
naturalistic
approach
when
when
would
we
put
that
in
in.
D
Thank
you
very
much
mayor
and
thank
you
council
for
the
input.
I
think
this
was
super
productive
for
for
staff
and
for
the
consultant
team.
We
heard
a
lot
of
good
ideas
and
it's
really
going
to
help
us
focus
in
the
next
design
phase.
Some
of
the
things
that
I
heard
sort
of
rolling
them
into
big
big
topics
a
little
bit
about
operations,
including
crime.
How
do
we
maintain
the
space?
How
do
we
deal
with
trash
and
restaurants?
D
We
heard
quite
a
bit
about
park,
design
and
amenities
things
like
bike
and
skate
facilities,
the
sound
wall
and
berms
the
need
the
desire
to
address
storm
water.
So
those
are
big
big
elements
there
also
in
nature,
incorporating
nature
and
fitness
sort
of
from
a
higher
level,
and
we
had
some
some
great
examples
of
other
parks
that
we
should
key
in
along
the
way,
and
I
think
that'll
be
helpful
for
us
to
be
able
to
take
a
look.
D
A
That's
perfect,
thank
you
so
much
everyone
once
again
with
the
team
and
then
on.
On
a
personal
note,
I
roll
off
of
our
city
council
in
december
on
december
6,
not
that
anyone's
counting
the
days,
but
you
know
if
it
actually
you
know
happens
to
be
that
the
visitation
is
after
that.
I
want
to
express
my
heartfelt
gratitude
and
thanks
for
moving
this
forward,
to
a
point
where
you
know
it
really
does
look
like
we're
going
to
have
an
amazing
space
right
on
the
border
of
cupertino
on
the
eastern
side
and
you've.
