A list of the proposed committee <br />members is attached, consisting of 13 residents, and 13 business, property owner, and public <br />agency representatives.

At Council's request, staff developed a proposal for a West San <br />Leandro citizens committee which would provide input for a strategic plan that covers critical <br />neighborhood issues such as traffic, noise, and future development, and then prioritize City <br />initiatives for the district. Council approved this concept in January 1998, and formed an ad -hoc <br />subcommittee to recommend a roster of committee members. <br />DISCUSSION <br />The Council Ad Hoc Committee proposes the attached roster of committee members. It consists <br />of 13 residents, and 13 business, property owner, and public agency representatives. The <br />residents come from a wide range of neighborhoods within the district. The business <br />representatives include several major employers, two small businesses, and a representative of <br />organized labor. Industrial and residential property owners are represented. Public agencies <br />represented include the Planning Commission, the Board of Zoning Adjustments, the East Bay <br />Regional Park District, and Girls, Inc.
