Letter to the Editor: 'Good Government Deserves Praise'

The Lund II development approved during the Jan. 5 Pleasanton City Council meeting has been a long and complex decision process that impacted multiple neighborhoods, included a prominent builder, required the careful consideration of longstanding agreements and the application of a sensitive and valued city initiative.

The Pleasanton City Council carefully considered each of these important factors and delivered a decision that represents a sound compromise that protects our city and provides 177 acres of open space for all of our citizens to enjoy. Local government often is accused of getting it wrong—this time the Mayor and the Pleasanton City Council got it right.

Pleasanton was well served—no referendum needed.

Bill Spain of Pleasanton
