Draft Excerpt February 22, 2007 Planning Commission Meeting Page 4 of 4 Secretary PoUart advised that Mr. Adams check with the property owner on the exact terms, although she said that substantial payments and improvements have been made already. Mr. Adams agreed that most of the conditions appear to have been completed, particularly those pertaining to Davis Street. Chair Perras invited comments from the audience. Herb Decoito, 650 Black Pine Drive, said that he has lived in San Leandro for the past 20 years, and has worked for National Construction Rentals for the past seven years. He saw the site being discussed for the first time five years ago, and has asked about it ever since. He thinks the proposal represents a good fit for his company as well as for the City of San Leandro. John McManus, with Cushman and Wakefield at 1111 Broadway in Oakland, represents the seller. He does not know that it is necessary given the detail of the presentation and the photos shown, but wanted to add context and background. He said that Ms. Pollart and Hanson Horn for the past three or four years a lot of ideas have come forth, but none was appealing enough to get this far. As you comes down Davis Street, he says, you see scrap metal yards and auto yards. He says that the National Construction Rentals proposal will raise the bar for the aesthetics of that area. He considers it a tremendous upgrade for the neighborhood and the street. With no further speakers stepping up, Chair Perras asked for a motion to close the public hearing.
