Dear Mr. Ambrose;
I am writing this letter pursuant to our several conversations
concerning the operation of the Stoneridge Quarry located off
Foothill Blvd. in Pleasanton. We have been ,•in operation for
two years now and in that time have provided '`fill material to
several portions of the Valley; including areas that pass
directly thru the San Ramon Valley that lies to the north of
Dublin.
In the course of our earlier operation, we occasionally had
trucks travel on San Ramon Valley Blvd. going thru the City of
Dublin. At your request, we rerouted the trucks, so that they
traveled thru Dublin on Interstates 580 and 680 staying off
your local streets. This resulted in a higher transportation
cost, but was done in the spirit of cooperation with the com-
munity.
We have made, and will continue to make every effort to be a
good neighbor. As further evidence of that, we were contacted
by representatives of the San Ramon Valley School District, who
indicated a need for fill material, for work being done at the
high school . We donated ten truck loads of fill material to
the School District and were pleased to be of assistance.

Our permit will expire in the fall of 1984, and we will soon be
making formal application for an extension. I would appreciate
some correspondence from the City of Dublin confirming our
cooperation with them, and an indication of no objection to our
request for this permit extension.
Should you require any additional information or a more
detailed explanation of our operation, please do not hesitate
to contact me at your convenience.
Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated.
Very truly yours,
FOOTHILL INVESTMENT COMPANY
