Minutes - San Leandro City Council Meeting - November 18, 1991 Page - 18 - CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS (continued) Mayor Karp said it was his understanding that Roger's Trucking was also concerned regarding the requirements for a handicapped ramp and rest room as part of an expansion plan. City Manager Dick Randall said he would follow up on this matter. B. Council Member Santos requested that someone look into the matter of the rebuilding of Walt's Gym. C. Council Member Corbett said she is an Alternate to the Waste Management Authority and sits on the Hazardous Waste Committee. She said the County's Hazardous Waste Management Plan is scheduled to come before the City Council on January 6, 1992. She said the Plan was submitted to the State in 1989 and was denied along with a number of other plans because there was a dispute over inclusion of the fair-share process, etc. She said the Hazardous Waste Committee has been going over the Plan and has covered the disagreements from the State as well as responded to comments from the public. She said they now have a Plan they feel will gain State approval and will come before the City Council on January 6, 1992, for the Council 's comments. D. Council Member Corbett asked for a status report on the City's paper recycling program. E. Council Member Perry noted the City was presented a certificate of recognition at the Fuller Lodge opening. F. Council Member Perry said she attended the Home-Alone Program at the Library. She said 159 parents and children attended and there were also a number of children who attended the child care that was provided during the Program. She said it was a very good presentation. She said when the City looks at cuts they should not just look at across- the-board cuts but should consider the number of clients we serve for the number of dollars. G. Council Member Perry discussed the ABAG Executive Board's Platform on Regional Growth Management for the San Francisco Bay Area. She said the ABAG General Assembly delegates would be meeting on November 21st to consider adoption of the Platform. She discussed the Tri-Valley Council Plan proposed by the cities of Danville, Dublin, Livermore, Pleasanton and San Ramon, and said their Plan was an alternate proposal to the ABAG Platform. She said the Tri-Valley Council Plan would be presented at the General Assembly meeting, and that she was in favor of the Plan. She said she is afraid if cities just say no to the ABAG proposal , without proposing an alternate plan, it will become a media circus, and the implication will be that the cities cannot agree on anything. She said there are still four other groups making proposals. She said the Tri-Valley Plan provides needed time for cities to review and comment on the ABAG proposal . She asked for City Council concurrence for her to vote in favor of the Tri-Valley Council Plan.
