Pat and Neela met with Debbie Pedro to discuss the Lighting Policy document prepared
by the EDPC.
Declared unusable in its present form, it will be adapted by Planning Department into a
format suitable for consideration by the Planning Commission. Debbie could not offer a
time line for this.
There was a discussion of the latest Pathways meeting concerning the paths proposed
along Fremont. Paths are now suggested for both sides of the road – one side for
pedestrians and horse riders, the other for cyclists, each with a wide “curb appeal” buffer
strip. No answer was arrived at for the contentious S-bend.
Davena Gentry gave our Committee information concerning a program called High
Energy Homes, which has PG&E and Acterra working together to analyze and reduce
energy usage in larger homes
