City Engineer Jain reported that some time ago he had written a letter to the Council regarding this subdivision (August 8, 1955 meeting). He did not approve the Planning Commission recommendation as he felt that the Canavese Subdivision should be treated in the same manner as other subdivisions of this type, with the requirement for complete plans and specifications, and construction of improvements as required by the Subdivision Ordinance. He stated the similarity in this subdivision and those of Glenfair Subdivision, and he stated a few of the requirements, demanded of Glenfair area.

No plans are prepared for this area as it now stands. City Engineer Jain was requested to contact the people involed in regard to the Council's decision. COMMUNCIATION FROM THE P. G. & E. REQUESTING RECONSIDERATION OF APPLICATION FOR USE PERMIT FOR CONSTRUCTION OF NEW SUB - STATION ON WOODSIDE ROAD. The P. G. & E. petitioned the City Council for a reconsideration of said Company's application for a Use Permit for the construction of a new 60 /4KV sub - station on the west side of Woodside Road, 110 feet south of Valota Road. Mr. Duncan Reynard explained that the Council had suggested that they, the P. G. & E., try to find another location. He asked to have Mr. Scott Kay speak for the P. G. & E. in regard to this suggestion. Mr. Kay stated that an alternate site had been investigated in the area where the sub - station was needed, Woodside Road, Valota and general vicinity. If the P. G. & E. were able to use the property that Councilman Spillers had suggested, it would be necessary to bring two 60 thousand circuits from a source south of Redwood City or source north of Redwood City which would orignate on Alameda east of Woodside Road. To bring the source to the sub - station it would be necessary to bring pole line to Woodside Road, second pole line on other side of the street. If this can b e done then in the opinion of the PG &F, this location is less desirable the site could be used, but /location is the best site, Woodside Road opposite Alexander and the original Street. This was followed by a long discussion and protests fromthe following people: Mr. Marvin Fineberg, 1860 Anamor Street; Mr. '''. Olsen, 104 Nimitz Avenue; , Mr. Wilbur nobinson, 1880 Anamor Street; Mr. D. F. Freston 1840 Anamor Street; Mrs. Alice Rankine,
