Minutes - City of San Leandro City Council and Page - 6 - San Leandro Redevelopment Agency Meeting - October 20, 1997 J. Bob Taylor, addressed the Council regarding recyclables and noted they are not tracked; only disposables are tracked. He added that the only goal is a reduction in the amount that goes to the landfill. K. Lou Filipovich, 15376 Laverne Drive, addressed the Council, stating, "An Appeal will be filed on behalf of Senior Citizens/Taxpayers/Voters who agree and/or support challenging the decision-making process requiring the new Walmart project within the City of San Leandro, respectfully submitted for the record by Lou Filipovich, Senior Taxpayer and voter." He referenced AB 939 and Measure D, noting they both, very specifically, say one thing: sewer, garbage, recycling and green waste applies to whoever has control or provides the service. It does not apply to the individual, residential property owner. That is what you need to bear in mind. He stated his concern that the ordinance does not clearly specify -- it only says "residential" -- and that includes everyone in town who is residential. He called the Council's attention to the September 29th Joint Meeting of the Oakland/San Leandro City Councils/Redevelopment Agencies, and noted he has been told that ABAG funding is not redevelopment. So, his problem with it is, if ABAG is not redevelopment money, he has yet to get an answer on how ABAG is becoming the funding source for a redevelopment project. L. Harold Perez, 2052 Vestal Court, addressed the Council and thanked Council Member Lothrop for changes in his district with respect to police presence. He also asked when the noise monitors would be in place. Staff responded that they are not certain, but locations are being reviewed. It was noted that the Airport has agreed to use portable monitors in several locations and that more information should be available next week. Council Member Lothrop commented that there needs to be a meeting with officials on how to hold the Port accountable. She also added that there is a need to place the monitors where they work best for San Leandro. Tiffany Peterson, 2075 134th Avenue, addressed the Council, stating she has applied for the Youth Advisory Commission and just wanted to introduce herself to the Council.
