Mountain View City Council · City Council on 2026-03-10 5:30 PM - REGULAR MEETING - Mar 10, 2026 · 10 Mar 2026 meeting

It's where I live.

And the East Wisdom Precise Plan is something that we worked on on the Planning Commission.

over seven years on council, we with CARE have adopted our East Wisdom and Precise Plan.

And so as different projects come forward and I'm not recused out, I wanna take the opportunity to talk about my neighbors, my future neighbors and the community that we're building in Mountain View.

And so I have comments and some ideas and some suggestions for our applicant that hopefully they'll heed and they'll take to heart.

So, you know, first of all, I want to echo the comments that some of my colleagues made that no community meeting is unfortunate because as I mentioned from my house, I can run through the neighborhood and I actually

Ran and did a loop through both project sites and I'll say fun fact on my run I saw a woman taking a beautiful walk by heritage trees and as I loop back to my house She had a super big big gulp because that's all we have in our neighborhood is a 7-eleven and I want more mixed-use commercial, you know residents to live there and I

I feel like a community meeting might have helped as well because just right across the way is a six-story, 600-unit project that's gonna be coming forward from Prometheus that's only putting forward a 5.2-acre popa, publicly accessible, open space, publicly accessible.

And so I think that we need to, as we see projects coming forward and

laws from our state that's doing a lot of streamlining.

I hope that applicants will still take the care that these projects, particularly ones that we're looking at office, commercial, moving to housing and residential, neighbors are going to be surprised.

And I just think we need to do our due diligence in daylighting the project, soliciting feedback, because this is our community.

So I wanted to also just talk about a little bit in terms of what hasn't been mentioned from colleagues, which is the acquisition and development, the fee that's being offered by the applicant, that it would go towards hopefully a new city park in the area.

But if that doesn't happen within one year of issuance of the final certificate of occupancy, it would go to Pyramid Park.

uh pyramid park is oversubscribed it is the largest park that we have opened and i was looking to see if mr marchand was here but it's the largest park at you know over three acres that we have opened in our city and i think two decades and as we're seeing a 600 unit development come forward this nearly 500 units come forward i really and and limitations in terms of

funding sources for our public open spaces.

I think anything we can do to ask for some flexibility, maybe it's two years of issuance, we really need this public park because your project, the amenities that you are putting forward to get people out of their units, they would benefit from a public park, not a popa or not a oversubscribed public park where you cannot find a swing on a weekend because people are there trying to enjoy.

But

you have to line to get on the swing.

So I just think there's a little bit more thought that can happen.
