It was moved by Ms. Michelotti, seconded by Ms. Dennis, to adopt Resolution No. <br />01-116, vesting the 202,000 square foot expansion for the Stoneridge Regional Shopping <br />Center for the term of the Development Agreement. <br /> <br />The roll call vote was as follows: <br />AYES: Councilmembers - Ayala, Campbell, Dennis, Michelotti, and Mayor Pico <br />NOES: None <br />ABSENT: None <br />ABSTAIN: None <br /> <br />Item 6b <br />Approval of Land Disposition Agreement with Bridge Housing Corporation for the <br />planned 100-unit assisted living facility, at Sunol Boulevard and Junipero Drive. <br />(SR 01:251) <br /> <br />Steven Bocian presented the staff report. <br /> <br /> Carol Gallante, President of Bridge Housing Corporation, indicated she was excited to be <br />at this point. It is a major step in moving forward with the application for Housing and Urban <br />Development (HUD) financing. That will lead to the rest of the documents being approved and <br />groundbreaking as soon as possible. <br /> <br /> Ms. Michelotti indicated that once this application proceeds through the Planning <br />Commission and further Council approvals, then Lytton Gardens will serve as the operator of the <br />project. <br /> <br /> Ms. Gallante agreed. A 501(c)(3) non-profit partnership will be formed between Bridge <br />Housing and Lytton Gardens. Bridge will take the lead through the development period and <br />Lytton Gardens is a very experienced operator of facilities like this. <br /> <br />Mr. Campbell asked for a definition of assisted living. <br /> <br /> Ms. Gallante indicated regulations regarding assisted living have changed over the years, <br />but basically it is a facility where seniors live in units with small kitchen facilities. In addition <br />there are meals, housekeeping services and some basic medical assistance. In the proposed <br />development, there are a certain number of units set aside for Alzheimer patients. That enables <br />them to stay in a semi-residential setting, with added protection and security so they don't <br />wander off. <br /> <br />Mr. Campbell asked how this differed from Pleasanton Gardens and similar facilities? <br /> <br /> Mr. Bocian said those are for independent living. This development is for seniors that <br />require assistance with their daily life functions. They can also assist with coordinating <br />medicines, whereas an independent living facility would not do that. <br /> <br />Pleasanton City Council 8 11/06/01 <br />Minutes <br /> <br /> <br />
