Minutes of April 24, 2006
1. A. The meeting was called to order at 6:10 p.m. by Chairman Ginger Summit.
B. Present were: Duwe, Brunzell, Corrigan, Dunckel, Ginzton, Stutz, Vargas and
Welch. Wagner arrived at 7:15 p.m.
Ad hoc committee was represented by Carol Gottlieb.
C. The agenda was approved as amended below.
3.Old Business
C. Henry Louie, City Engineer/Public Works Director, gave an update on capital
projects.
i. The design for the Paseo del Roble/Page Mill bridge will be complete next
month with construction due to start in August. The $80K for the project
(including a TDA grant of $9,600 to be used by 2006) represents money approved
by the Town Council in 2003.
ii. There is a funding opportunity from the State of CA for a bike lane from
Fremont/Edith to Arastradero, maybe on both sides. Roadway needs widening
and drainage needs improvement. There may be an opportunity for some Federal
funding for the project as well, with a June 30, 2006 deadline. The Town would
have to supply 20 percent matching funds.
iii. Ground breaking festivities for the Moody Road trail improvement project are
scheduled for Friday, June 9 at 11:00 a.m. The Council invites the Committee.
The original design for the path called for a 5-foot path; most is now 7feet,
running along the south (creek side) of the road.
Other projects mentioned included: Miranda – complete, needs maintenance;
Robleda – goes to bid for a 7-foot rather than a 5-foot path; the Foothill College
project at $823,000, was seriously over budget, due in part to having been
seriously under budgeted in the beginning.
2. New Business
A. Recommendations on properties:
iii. 14329 Miranda Way, Lands of Yu. The Committee recommended collecting
an in lieu fee.
Corrigan moved; Vargas seconded. Unanimous

fee.
Corrigan moved; Welch seconded. Unanimous.
v. 27961 Central. Lands of Killian. The path easement in question from Central
to Page Mill Road up a steep bank. The homeowner was seeking clarification as
to where exactly the path was to go. Dunckel agreed to walk the bank below the
road with Henry Louie to seek a useable bench for the route and make the
solution consistent with what we’ve asked other residents to do. The Committee
agreed to get a description of the scope of the project if done in this manner and
the cost from Town Staff.

C. General Discussion
Chairman Summit expressed our need for a bicycle representative and a bike
route map. She re-iterated our goal – to finalize at least three maps – an
updated walking map, an updated easement map and a map laying out our
recommendations on how the on-road path system should be/could be developed
in the future. She briefly mentioned areas that need clarification prior to our
finalizing the on road map:
1. Zappatini Court – a bridge may be needed to cross the creek. Easement
needs to be swapped.
2. Miraloma to Amigos Court – needs the engineer’s recommendation.
The minutes of the meeting of March 27 were approved as amended.
Ginzton moved; Wagner seconded. Unanimous Yes.
The meeting was adjourned at 9:57 p.m.
