AGENDA STATEMENT
MEETING DATE: June 13 , 1983
SUBJECT BART Extension Study
EXHIBITS ATTACHED Livermore-Pleasanton Study Update Analysis Interim
Report No. 1
RECOMMENDATION Review report and comment
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None
DESCRIPTION The City has received from the Bay Area Rapid Transit
District the Livermore-Pleasanton Extension Study Update Analysis Interim
Report No. 1 . This report reviews the design alternatives for the
extension of BART to the Valley. One of the key points that the City
Council should consider is the location of the Dublin Station which is
proposed in the middle of I-580 and would require parking on the south side
of I-580 in Pleasanton and the north side of I-580 in Dublin.
Consideration should be given to both the benefits and liabilities of such
a station in Dublin. One of the negative impacts which might result from
the location of a BART parking station in Dublin would be the overflow of
parking onto commercial streets in Dublin and the loss of the little
remaining commercial/industrial land that is left in the City. One of the
benefits may be the attraction of more people from outside the community to
our commercial area and the provision of convenient mass transit to
residents .
Staff has provided a copy of the Extension Report to the major employers
within the City of Dublin and the Chamber of Commerce for their comment .
Staff from the Bay Area Rapid Transit District will be holding a public
meeting on Tuesday, June 21st at 2 : 30 p.m. , in the community room of the
Stoneridge Shopping Center in Pleasanton. At that meeting, BART Staff will
explain the Extension Study Update Analysis and accept input from the
public at large . A second meeting will be held on Wednesday, July 6th at
2 : 00 p.m. , in which the Technical Advisory Committee will meet in Oakland
to discuss individual agency ' s comments . A representative of Staff sits on
that Technical Advisory Committee .
