Mayor Faria directed the City Clerk to read a draft of a letter in response to a question asked at the Chamber of Commerce Candidates' Luncheon. The City Clerk read the letter. The City Council discussed the letter and suggested that, if there are misperceptions regarding the manner in which the City is operated, etc. , these should be discussed personally with the members of the Chamber Board to find out what is causing these perceptions and whose they are. The City Council pointed out that, although it might be a valid point that the public had some concerns, this should have been pointed out by the Chamber of Commerce two or three years ago. Mayor Faria advised the City Council that he planned on sending a letter that would include in it a phrase indicating members of the City Council would like to sit down and meet with the Chamber of Commerce to discuss this matter. B. Council Member Myers asked that staff look into the condition of the railroad crossing at Farallon and Griffith, which he said is deteriorating. C. Council Member Corbett asked for on-going updates regarding the San Leandro plume and the hook-ups to EBMUD for those properties now using wells.
