Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Pleasanton public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Denial of 231 Old Bernal Avenue redevelopment
The council denied a four-unit residential building across from City Hall for violating downtown standards, but several members worried state housing law could allow a much denser, no-parking project on the site instead. They urged the applicant to return with a design that fits the downtown.
Arroyo Lago Residential Project Annexation
The largest item on the agenda: annexing 130.98 acres from unincorporated Alameda County and approving a planned development of 28 single-family homes on 128.5 acres, with environmental review certification and a development agreement. This would add homes to Pleasanton's edge and reshape the city's boundary.
