PlanningBoard | 2009-03-23 | 11 | Ms. Tasini stated that there will be a side walk going to the north towards Ralph Appezzato Parkway but not south towards the Posey Tube. President Kohlstrand questioned why there isn't a cross walk across Stargell near the intersection with Mariner Square Loop. Ms. Tasini stated that it was probably a Cal Trans issue but that she would look in to it. President Kohlstrand suggested that the lawn area at the intersection of Stargell and Mariner Square Loop should be planted with a more environmental sustainable vegetation. Also she wants to make sure that there is a full compliment of sidewalks in the area. Mr. Young stated that they can look at a different ground covering in that area. President Kohlstrand asked if the land owned by Catellus needs to follow the same landscape guidelines when it is developed. Staff responded that when that parcel gets developed they will need to adhere to this Master Plan. Board member Cook moved/Board member Lynch seconded the motion to approve the Stargell Avenue Extension Landscape Master Plan with the provision that the lawn area be planted with a more environmentally sustainable vegetation. The motion carried 5-0. 9-D. Bay Friendly Landscaping Ordinance - Applicant - City of Alameda. The Planning Board will consider a proposed Alameda Municipal Code amendment related to creation of a Civic Bay Friendly Landscaping Ordinance requiring sustainable landscaping practices for City and public-private partnership projects or renovations that equal or exceed $100,000 in construction costs.
