behalf of the Friends of the Alameda Animal Shelter (FAAS). Public hearing to consider a
Planned Development Amendment, Final Development Plan, Design Review, and Zoning

certified/adopted a Final Environmental Impact Report for Harbor Bay Isle (EIR) and
Addendum to the EIR (collectively, Previous CEQA Documents) in accordance with the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). None of the circumstances necessitating
further CEQA review are present, thus the City can rely on the Previous CEQA

AGENDA ITEMS:
3-A
Clarification on February 11, 2007 Special Meeting Minutes.
Chair Wood referenced the minutes from the February 11, 2007 special meeting where the fee
change schedule was corrupted. Chair Wood requested that the fee change schedule be included
in the minutes as an attachment. The request was also made to have the reformatted fee change
schedule included in the City Council staff report for the March 20, 2007 meeting. Secretary
Sullwold made the motion to rescind the prior approval of the February 11, 2007 special meeting
minutes and approve the amended and reformatted minutes and fee change schedule attachment
dated March 5, 2007. Commissioner Schmitz seconded the motion and the Golf Commission
approved unanimously.
3-B
Review of BMS Report.
Chair Wood reported that BMS, an architectural landscaping firm, was contacted in October
2006 to do a study when the Golf Commission was looking at erecting a temporary structure to
serve as a banquet facility. The purpose of the report was to get an idea of additional cost
associated with putting up a temporary structure. The scope of work got expanded to look at not
only the area around the existing clubhouse and the proposed new banquet facility but also
secondarily to look at the entryway at the corner of Island Drive and Clubhouse Memorial Road
as a separate zone and then as another zone the driveway (Clubhouse Memorial Road) to a
portion of the parking lot. The thought at the time that the proposal was requested was that it
would include costs for utilities and infrastructure, which it does not. Secretary Sullwold
expressed her frustration with the fact that the proposal cost upwards of $20,000 and is
landscaping for concepts that have not been decided on and may never be completed. The
problem seems to be that the Development Services Department runs the project and by the time
the Golf Commission gets the information or the proposals the work has already been done

COMMISSION COMMUNICATIONS
Chair Sullwold: ""I will just state, as I think I did earlier, again Dale Lillard attempted
to disrupt our process for preparing the draft minutes for submission to the
Commission for approval. Again, I was able to convince Lisa Goldman, the Acting
City Manager, that our process was perfectly legal and we should be able to follow it
and she conceded to that. On the other hand, our parking spaces were summarily
removed without any notice, even though they've been in existence, I've been
informed by Lil Arnerich, since the 1950's. In addition, as Bill noted, there is no
representative here from Kemper nor is there anyone here from the City. I sent an
email to Lisa Goldman asking her how we were expected to fulfill the specific duties
that were outlined in the Municipal Code Section setting up the Golf Commission,
which allows the Golf Commission or gave the Golf Commission the power to seek
reports from the General Manager of the Golf Complex. And since, of course, we

REPORTS FROM THE RECREATION AND PARK DIRECTOR (See Exhibit 2)
ARPD Director Amy Wooldridge gave the report and answered questions regarding the homeless in
the parks. Potential solutions such as putting a dog park at Estuary Park if funding is identified to remove
the large dirt mound that homeless people are living behind.
Chair Limoges: Commented the homeless problem is ongoing. Requested the Commission be
informed about the responses and updates with Courtney Shepard. Inquired about why we
cannot move the contaminated, class 2 dirt pile since we created it. Answer: It will cost over
$350,000 to dispose of the dirt and due to the low level contamination, it can't be simply moved
to another site.
Vice Chair Alexander: Will there still be enough space for a new playground. Answer: Yes, the
original design has a dog park and a playground. This dog park will be temporary. Vice Chair
requested to have someone from the Alameda Police Department or Social Services come to
give their opinion on the homeless situation.
Commissioner Barnes: Is there any concern about exposure to the homeless population
regarding the contaminants in the soil? Answer: No, it is all grassed over. The Department of
Toxic Substance Control highly regulates it and the dirt is not considered a threat.

Ms. Shank stated it was not an elevator but stairs.
Board member Burton stated he would like seeing retail space and not have the café take
the whole space.
Mr. Sengul stated that the lobby breaks up the space, corner is small area. He believes
an ATM is a good idea for a tenant.
Board member Burton asked the reason for the residence to have their entrance on Park
Street stating that it is a gateway project and doesn't think having an ATM right at the
corner is a great idea and would like to see something more powerful. He feels the project
is not compliant with the North Park Street guidelines in a couple of ways and feels there
must be a strong justification to break these rules with the first gateway project.
Mr. Sengul stated that the project is different than any other and ties to the City's maritime
history.

Action Item at the last meeting and was changed to a discussion item. Decided at
the meeting was to have the policy board in the Pro Shop instead of on the first
tee of the courses so that customers can read them while checking in to play golf.
The question was raised as to whether the Risk Manager has seen the policies and
approves of them. The General Manager stated that he has reviewed the policies

3.A. Transportation Commission Meeting: Wednesday, January 27, 2016 at 7 pm
Commissioner Schatmeier stated that AC Transit has been actively compiling a service
enhancement plan that impacts the City. Commissioner Schatmeier provided a memo
summarizing the items that were discussed. He explained three priorities came about from the
discussion: 1. funding should stay local; 2. maintain existing AC Transit Line O on Santa Clara
Avenue and if they shorten the route as originally proposed by AC Transit then savings should
stay local; and 3. in the absence of transfers, AC Transit should maintain direct service to
Fruitvale BART Station on the current lines despite the additional cost of doing SO. He
recommended that the topic be agendized for the January 2016 meeting so the Commission can
discuss the priorities.
Staff Payne stated that the City has been working with AC Transit and the City supports their
expansion plan. She further explained that the biggest priority is the restoration of the Line 19,

Speaker - Robert ""Bob"" Ploss, of the Aquatic Task Force, an Ad Hoc Volunteer group,
addressed the Commission as an individual by stating he would like to see an aquatic center
as part of the Beltline project. He would like to be involved in the process.
Speaker - Dorothy Freeman, of the Jean Sweeney Open Space Committee (JSOSC), is very
interested in being involved with this project and being part of the process. She provided a
brief on how dedicated Ms. Sweeney was to acquiring the land and keeping it open space.
Speaker - Helena Lengel, Biology Department of the College of Alameda, stated she also
worked with the JSOSC on the ballot measure to acquire the property. She would like to stay
involved with the development of the land. She would like to see the students of the College be
involved from a scientific study standpoint and learning environment, such as sample testing
and measurements.
Speaker - Jim Sweeney, husband of Jean Sweeney, delighted this project coming to fruition.
Jean never gave up on this, which started in 1998 at a meeting at Mastick Senior Center. The
result was that everyone wanted open space for walking, and bike paths and she was able to
get 1,000 signatures and the initiative passed. Jean was lucky enough to find the original
contact for the buy-back and she was there every step of the way.

REGULAR AGENDA ITEMS
3-A. Alameda Point Update - Presentation of SunCal's Draft Redevelopment Master Plan.
Debbie Potter, Base Reuse and Community Development Manager, addressed several topics
actively discussed in the community and clarified that tonight's update is for information only,
neither staff nor SunCal has requested formal action on the Master Plan. It is an opportunity for
the community to comment on the draft Master Plan and for the ARRA Board to provide
feedback to SunCal. Because SunCal's plan is not consistent with the City's charter, as it
proposes a mix of residential structures that include multi-family rental and condo projects, this
master plan can only be approved by a vote of the people. SunCal anticipates placing its plan
on the ballot for the communities' consideration in November of this year, and the ENA requires
SunCal to notify the City no later than April 30 if it plans to proceed with the ballot initiative.
Tonight's presentation is part of the ongoing community dialogue that will continue over the next
18 months, as the City and SunCal negotiate a Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA)
for the long term redevelopment of Alameda Point. Two key issues have been the focus of
discussion: 1) the concept of a public trust modeled on the Presidio trust for Alameda Point, and",AlamedaReuseandRedevelopmentAuthority/2009-01-07.pdf

A REQUEST FROM PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT TO PROVIDE A LETTER
OF SUPPORT FOR THEIR SUBMITTAL OF A SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL
(SRTS) GRANT
Staff distributed sample letters of support for a SRTS Grant being applied for by City of Alameda
Public Works, and explained that they are requesting that the board provide a letter in support of their
effort to secure the grant. The funds would be used for capital improvements in targeting Franklin
and Wood. Some of the grant would be used to provide safety education.
While the Youth Collaborative has already voted to provide a letter of support, they voiced concern
that similar improvements were needed at schools on the West End and that Public Works should be
encouraged to apply for additional funds for these schools. They also hoped that the funds to provide
safety education from the current grant could be used for West End schools.
The Board voiced support for the current grant, but also had interest in a second letter regarding
SRTS improvements for West End schools, after more information could be collected. Board
discussion included a 2004 grant to create a study related to needs on the West End. Traffic issues at
Chipman were also discussed a should be considered in drafting a second letter.
It was agreed that the Board letter should include explanation of the Board's purpose/mission, and
that the educational component of the grant should be highlighted. Member Biggs noted that it might
be best to support this grant proposal as written rather than suggest changes that might adversely
impact the success of the grant.

Response from the City Auditor.
Chair Sullwold read a letter from City Auditor Kevin Kearney dated May 20, 2008,
purportedly explaining the accounting procedures concerning the golf cart lease.
The Golf Fund is being charged the entire amount of the four-year lease --
$449,000 -- in this fiscal year. Mr. Kearney did not answer the question of why this
was necessary in his letter. He compared the golf cart lease to a home mortgage,
but, of course, a home owner is not required to put aside the entire amount due to
be paid over the 30-year term of his mortgage during the first year, making the
comparison inappropriate. The Commission intends to ask Mr. Kearney additional
questions.

Private Development Be Unavailable within 36 Months.
The Deputy City Manager - Development Services provided an overview of the staff report.
Chair Johnson inquired if the expenditure is considered a predevelopment cost for SunCal, to
which the Deputy City Manager - Development Services answered in the affirmative. Chair
Johnson inquired if staff has made efforts to have SunCal fulfill their commitment for payment.
The Deputy City Manager - Development Services explained that the Alameda Point
Collaborative (APC) has tried diligently, without success, to have SunCal fulfill its commitment.
Chair Johnson recommended continued efforts to pursue SunCal and inquired why funds from
the SunCal escrow account are not being used to pay this bill. The Executive Director
explained that the predevelopment escrow account is for obligations that SunCal has to the City
and that the terms of the escrow account do not allow the City to direct the escrow agent to pay
any invoices. Also, the City cannot interfere in the contractual relationship between SunCal and
APC.
Doug Biggs, Executive Director of APC further explained that he has contacted SunCal multiple
times to request payment, and the responses provided no resolution to the problem and
payments have not been made. Chair Johnson asked Mr. Biggs if APC has filed a lawsuit
against SunCal to collect the funds owed. Mr. Biggs explained that the contract SunCal
required APC sign has a no-lawsuit clause and that APC would have to go through mediation.
Chair Johnson inquired whether APC has demanded mediation pursuant to its contract, to
which Mr. Biggs responded in the negative. Chair Johnson recommended that APC go through

Commissioner Delaney spoke about the Council meetings that had taken place the previous
evenings. There had been discussion about the Golf Course and the City's athletic fields, and
Delaney was wondering why the Recreation & Park Commission had not been involved with
these issues prior to those meetings. He was disturbed that there is a sub-set to the sports
group that are putting out literature communicating the fact that the North Loop area has
already been defined as a sporting field, and it has not. Delaney asked the Commission if the
other members were concerned about these independent groups developing now and talking
about maintaining some of these facilities once they get built. Delaney has met some of the
people, and although they seem very nice, he wonders if they are qualified, capable and
committed to such an undertaking for the long-term.

A.
Potential Action to Reduce the Number of Recreation & Park Commission
Members from 7 to 5 (Discussion/Action Item)
Commissioner Sonneman asked if the Commission was supposed to initiate this action.
Director Lillard explained that at a previous City Council meeting they had reviewed all
the Boards and Commissions and took an action vote to either combine some of the
bodies or reduce the number of members. The Council asked that the decision on
reducing the number of members on the Recreation Commission come back to its
members for a formal action before a final decision was made. There was a feeling on
the Council that the body should remain with seven members to give a bigger cross
section of the community a chance to be heard. Commissioner Sonneman respects the
broader part of the community having a voice; however, they have struggled several
times with meetings cancelled due to a lack of quorum. Community members are
always welcome to attend meetings and give their opinions and concerns, but having
five members makes better sense, and that's what he would recommend.",RecreationandParkCommission/2012-05-10.pdf

concerned about the negative $569,044 shown in the Revenue/Expenditures column. She
also said, and other Board members agreed, that this budget format is difficult to
understand. Library Director Hardie agreed that this budget is not easily understood, and
said she would speak with the Project Manager to see whether the format could be
improved. She also assured the Board that the project is not overspent.
On the subject of reports to the Board, members are disappointed that Mr. Haun is not
reporting directly to them. Library Director Hardie explained that the Library Board is
receiving exactly the same information as the City Council gets each month from Mr.
Haun. She said that this is the reporting format that the City has decided on, and
mentioned that the presentations are broadcast on City cable. Dr. Mitchell asked what
information is contained in the presentations, and Library Director Hardie replied that
Mr. Haun simply reviews the information in the Construction Report, which the Board
also receives. She said that she attends all of the Project Manager's presentations and
would be glad to take notes and report to the Board if anything of significance occurs.",LibraryBoard/2005-02-09.pdf

Minutes for the meeting of April 23, 2007.
Member Ezzy Ashcraft noted that page 4, paragraph 2, read, ""He did not believe the east-
west roadway was necessary when the north-south roadways were already available She
did not believe that was the substance of Mr. Krueger's comments, because it contradicted
his previous sentence.
Member Ezzy Ashcraft noted that page 4, paragraph 7, read, ""In response to an inquiry by
Board member McNamara regarding Ms. Reid's suggestion of split sidewalks, Mr. Corbitt
replied that they had examined that possibility. He noted that there were 23 driveways ""
She noted that the previous references on page 3 refer to there being 13 driveways, and
inquired whether that was a typo. Mr. Thomas noted that he was referring to putting the
sidewalk on the south side of that road, where there were 23 parking aisles.
Member Ezzy Ashcraft noted that page 5, the last sentence of paragraph 3, read, ""Once the
road is placed on that parcel, a bike-pedestrian path would be placed there, and the area
would be added to the beachfront area for buildings and parking."" She noted that her notes
did not reflect that information, and was concerned about whether it would be temporary.
She would like the record to reflect that Mike Corbitt stated it was a temporary parking lot,
and that it was not to be a beachfront area for buildings and parking because that was not the
idea of enlivening the waterfront with parking lots.

Jim Strehlow, Alameda resident and local employee, wrote a letter to the editor of the Alameda
Sun at the end of 2011 regarding the I-880 project along 23rd and 29th Avenue bridges. He had
not heard of project updates. Apparently, others saw problems concerning the bridges, especially
construction, and most issues have been resolved. The website, I-880 corridor.com at Caltrans,
shows the status of the projects including the 23rd and 29th Avenue bridge status. Citizens
should know what is happening with the status and how it affects them.

Presentation by National Golf Foundation Regarding Golf Complex Operational Review.
The Interim General Manager introduced Ed Getherall of the National Golf Foundation (NGF),
the consultant firm hired to perform the operational review. Mr. Getherall gave a brief overview
of how the information for the study is compiled. The study has several components; the first
component is the financial analysis, operating history and operating efficiencies, the
management structure and current trends. The second component will look at what capital
improvements should be made with the limited resources. The third component is researching
where the Complex stands in the current marketplace and the local competitors. It was noted
that the market has changes quite a lot over the past 10 years. He noted that rounds and revenue
have dropped while expenses have risen. This trend is not only seen at Chuck Corica Golf
Complex but in municipal golf all across the region and all over the country. He stated that 10
years ago 90% of NGF's work was doing feasibility studies for new golf courses and currently
90% is doing operational reviews for City owned municipal golf courses, Municipal Golf
Courses are facing common issues, the largest being rapidly rising labor expenses and flat or

AGENDA ITEMS:

Discussion of Chuck Corica Golf Complex Clubhouse Project Cost Estimates
from Dahlin Group.
The General Manager reported that the cost estimates for the clubhouse are
completed. During the process of completing the estimates it became clear that
it
was not cost effective to use the plans from the City of San Mateo's Poplar Creek
Golf Course. The number of changes needed to the existing plans made them
impractical. The General Manager welcomed Dorene Soto from the Development
Services Department. Ms. Soto reported that the cost estimates came in at $7.5
million. The problem with the Poplar Creek plan is that they didn't really fit the
site and the changes needed are so extensive that you might as well start from
scratch. Ms. Soto asked the Dahlin Group what could be done to bring the cost
down and they suggested only building the banquet facility now and phase the
other areas of the project. The question was raised regarding the difference from
the original cost estimate of $6.5 million. The original estimates did not include
the furniture, fixtures and soft costs. The soft costs include the redrawing of the
plans, which is estimated at $750,000. Not included in these estimates are soil
cleanup if any is necessary and time billed by the Development Services

NEW BUSINESS
A.
Review and Recommendation on the Clark Memorial Bench in Jackson Park
Director Amy Wooldridge made a change to the recommendation and requested that the
Commission delay the recommendation until further research be completed. The bench is
significantly damaged. This is not on the historical monument list, but this is first hardscape in
the city's oldest park.
Chair Delaney asked if we are addressing a bench or are we addressing crime; if there was no
crime would we be discussing this. Director Wooldridge stated we would be talking about this
because of the recent damage to the bench.
Public Comment:
Josh Miller, lives across the street. He said the majority of people who frequent the bench are
unruly teens causing trouble, and sometimes dangerously spilling out onto the street. The
bench is situated so it allows the illegal behavior. The park is in a constant state of evolution,
and this should include the bench.
Betsy Mathison, lives near the park. Jackson is the most urban park and being passive it
deserves more attention. She reported doing research on ""dumb friends league"" and gave
historical perspective. She asked if the bench could be saved as there seems to be a much
broader meaning in the inscription.",RecreationandParkCommission/2014-03-13.pdf

President Biggs began the discussion by stating that the plan for this evening was to review
Workgroup Action Plans that had been provided by staff, to determine the membership of each
Workgroup, and to decide on each Workgroup's goals and activities for the upcoming fiscal
year.
The current members of the Human Relations Workgroup are Vice-President Williams and
members Sorensen and Hyman. Given the commonality of goals with this workgroup and the
ATAH Workgroup, it was agreed that ATAH would be subsumed into the Human Relations
Workgroup. This Workgroup's focus will be to promote activities that support human relations,
to encourage non-discrimination in Alameda, and to investigate issues of discrimination brought
to its attention on a case-by-case basis. Current activities will include reviewing and
summarizing data collected in the recent Quality of Life survey, and maintaining a presence on
the AUSD LGBTQ Roundtable. This Workgroup will also provide support for next year's AUSD
Career Pathways Fair.
The current members of the Assessment and Awareness Workgroup are members Blake and
Davenport. Organizing and conducting a Community Needs Assessment Survey will be this
year's primary task for the Workgroup. Their plan is to bring in members of Alameda's
Commission on Disability Issues and representatives from Alameda's nonprofits, to help
develop the survey questions, and assist in assuring that all segments of the community have
an opportunity to participate in the survey. President Biggs shared that the 2012 survey involved
two meetings to create and fine-tune the survey questions, and three meetings to review and
assemble the data collected through the survey. He added that the task of writing the survey
summary was shared by Workgroup members.

REGULAR AGENDA:
4-A. Chair Huston brought up the on-site public art and the memo and felt that it was a
misnomer. She referred to the memo and what it says about the Commission and that they are
being called upon to apply the funds available to public art and they need not apply it to a
specific piece or location, its wide open. She mentioned the Alameda Municipal Code and the
section that says that money left over after administrative fees be distributed to the City for on-
site public art. She also mentioned that the amount available as of September 2007 is
approximately $45,295. She read the memo and suggested that the annual plan be amended
to include that the money be spent or applied to the purchase or expenses of public art in
Alameda. She proposed a movement to amend the annual plan include a line item to apply the
available funds to public art within the next year. She thinks that they should not name the
number but rather the source.
Mr. Arrants asked about the percentages
Ms. Huston clarified that since the funds for administrative duties be spent on art since it had not
been used.
Mr. Wolfe talked about the specific locations that could have an impact on Park and Webster
Streets. He wanted to designate the money to art at the tube. He feels that it is critical that they
place art at the entries to the tubes and feels that it would benefit the community if they could
make the association with culture upon entering the city.
Ms. Huston didn't disagree.
Mr. Thomas clarified what was happening at the exit of the Webster tube.",PublicArtCommission/2007-10-25.pdf

A power point presentation was made by Leora Feeney, Chair of FAWR, and Eli Saddler,
Conservation Director for Golden Gate Audubon, to update the Board and community on the
resources at the Alameda proposed Wildlife Refuge to ensure the resources are protected while
transfer negotiations continue. Eli Saddler thanked the Board for the opportunity to present the
update and encouraged them to do whatever possible to protect the resource. He expressed
concern about the current plans that have been proposed that are within the area that was
considered in the Biological Opinion. They want to continue to work cooperatively with the VA
to protect the resource and honor the veterans at the same time.
Member deHaan commented on how nice it is to look at the maturity of the site, referring to the
photos included in the presentation. He asked if the resources, the ponds and wildlife area, are
getting to a better state. Ms. Feeney replied that the ponds are wonderful, but that Alameda Point
and the breakwater is vulnerable. She discussed the increase in the Pelican numbers, and the use
of the willows by migratory birds, including a hawk, one winter. Ms. Feeney also mentioned

Discussion of request to City Council
Mr. Jeff Cambra thanked the commission for all the work they have done. He said that Arts
Alameda is prepared to draft the public arts grants program criteria, but wanted to give everyone
a chance to express their opinions.
Ms. Huston thanked Mr. Cambra for his comments. She then read her letter to City Council.
Ms. Lee read her letter to City Council. Her concerns are ""mission creep"", they are being asked
to manage a different program. She feels they are not qualified to give out grants and she is
uncomfortable giving money to friends and neighbors and is concerned with conflict of interest.
They are not in a position to put in extra time; they are an advisory committee, not a research
and grant generating committee. They are not clear on their mission.
Ms. Huston added that since the grants issue came up, she became more alert to conflicts. She
referenced the September minutes and that they are supposed to come up with ideas and give
them to the planning department. She never intended to work under management of the
planning department without pay and grew uncomfortable as materials arrived that increasingly
pressured her to answer to the planning department. She mentioned the draft of a
subcommittee report that was prevented from being presented to the Commission. She feels
that a lot of their work has been subverted. They had reservations regarding the grants
program and managing the creation of a new program in which planning controls.
Mr. Biggs asked about the agenda topic to clarify how the letters related.
Ms. Huston responded by saying that the letters are requests to City Council and refers to the
commission having little understanding of their authority. She asked if it was appropriate to do
the grants program. She counted on the planning department when they asked if it was
appropriate and when Ms. Woodbury said they must, she was acting in her role as advisor to
the commission. Ms. Huston feels that Ms. Woodbury was exerting a personal desire or a",PublicArtCommission/2008-01-09.pdf

3-A. A PRESENTATION BY YIU-KEI LOUIE - ALAMEDA PUBLIC WORKS
DEPARTMENT ON THE CITY OF ALAMEDA'S PARATRANSIT PROGRAM AND
UPCOMING PARATRANSIT SHUTTLE SERVICE - Action-20 minutes
Mr. Louie explained that the City's Paratransit program is funded by the Sales Tax passed by Measure B.
Alameda County receives the funds from the State and distributes them to fund city programs. Alameda
uses its funds to provide transportation programs for seniors and disabled residents. (Mr. Louie passed
out a pamphlet describing the programs). The programs now in place include a taxi service that provides
return trips from medical appointments. Most participants use East Bay Paratransit to provide their trip to
the appointment, but these need to be scheduled in advance. Because it's hard to determine exactly how
long the visit will be, the taxi service allows them to receive a ride home shortly after the visit is finished.
The other major taxi program is the Premium Taxi Service which allows eligible participants to purchase
$5.00 taxi script for $2.50. A Supplementary Paratransit Program complements the East Bay Paratransit
(EBP) Program by providing service during hours when EBT is not operating.
Mr. Louie then explained the new Paratransit Shuttle Service, which will begin on April 6th, is like A.C.
Transit service, with a route that makes regularly scheduled stops at designated locations throughout
Alameda. This program will also serve Alameda seniors (62+) and disabled residents. (He passed
schedules out for the new program) Stops include Mastick Senior Center, Alameda Hospital, Kaiser, and
Towne Center. While some residents wanted the route to include Oakland, they are keeping it in Alameda
for now.
In response to questions from the Board, Mr. Louie informed us that:
Mastick, Cardinal Point, and Anne Diment were some of the locations they conducted meetings to help
determine the best routes for the program. They also took into account the recent A.C. Transit route
changes. The service will be available Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 10 to 4, making 1hour
loops. The vehicle they are using can accommodate 16 passengers, but larger vehicles can be brought in if
rider-ship demonstrates a need for them.
Nine companies responded to the RFP and the carrier chosen was also recommended by San Leandro,
who is using their services. They will use rider feed-back and input from Jackie Krause at Mastick to
measure the success of the program. Press releases, flyers, and banners will be used to advertise the
program, and there will be a kick off celebration at Mastick at 9:30 on April 6th.
President Wasko thanked Mr. Louie for his presentation, adding that this will be a great benefit for
seniors that have difficulty getting around.

Presentation and Recommendation on Proposed City of Alameda Universal Design Ordinance
(Andrew Thomas, City Planner)
Mr. Thomas presents handout, gives background. Released proposed ordinance language to Social
Service Human Relations Board (SSHRB) and Commission on Disability Issues (CDI) last month.
Proposed ordinance lays out requirements on all new major projects in Alameda. Concept is
Universal Design Unit is one that could be adapted to accommodate persons with disabilities.
Bedroom, Kitchen, Living Area, Bathroom on first floor, has elements that accommodate range of
physical disabilities.
Percentage of new units that this would apply to is under discussion. What does the building code
require now? Chapter 11-A of Uniform Building Code should be referenced, which is well known
by City inspectors and planners. City adopts building code changes every year, and any changes
to that chapter at the state level would be adopted each year.
Add these items to conditions of approval. Then it is on City to make sure building code is adhered
to, rather than adopting new language that is only specific to Alameda.
Percentage: 15% seems too low - what is the right number? What do we tie the percentage to? We
want to write something that is easily adaptable. Keep it simple. Unit should be accessible to enter,
4 primary living spaces without stairs. Stairs could in unit, but the primary living spaces are
accessible.",CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities/2015-10-26.pdf

Bob Sullwold stated that, for the 3rd month in a row, there are no financial
statements, no year-end financials and no detailed budget for the coming year from
the City. Rounds on the Clark course in September 2009 were about 130 more than
September 2008. In general, however, rounds are down this year as compared with
last year, and the downward trend appears to be continuing. Compared to August
2009, September rounds are down on all three courses. On a positive note, the total
