BAUM. ED. D., SUPERINTENDENT ROBERT W. PRICE RAY M. STRONG ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENT February 1, 1989 ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENT FOR INSTRUCTION FOR STUDENT SERVICES Kitty Walker , Senior Planner RECEIVED San Joaquin County Planning Division 1810 East Hazelton Avenue FEB 6 1989 Stockton, California 95205 SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY Subject : Preapplication # GP-89-11 PLANNING DIVISION Proposed New Town - Mountain House Dear Kitty Walker: As indicated, within the attached letter from the District Board of Trustees to the County Board of Supervisors, the District is very concerned with the continued approval of residential development within the District boundaries without the establishment of an adequate school facilities financing program. As this project develops, we would request, therefore, that the County ensure that the plan incorporates school facilities financing, along with establishing the placement of school sites as required by the development plan . The preliminary document appears to indicate that it is the intent of the developer to comply with this request, however , we would ask that the District be invited to participate in the early stages of the planning process, as it relates to both landuse and financing, so that the requirements of the School District are met . We have found that the District' s early participation in such planning is far more effective in addressing the needs of the District in a constructive manner . Finally, we would note several minor technical corrections to be made on page 3. 10 of the document : - the project will not be served by the Tracy School District, which is an elementary district, but rather by the Tracy Joint Union High School District which serves grades 9-12 . - student generation numbers for the Tracy area should read as follows : K-5 .44 students/residential unit 6-8 . 2 It 11 9-12 . 3 if 'A We look forward to working with the County and applicant on the plan development relative to the school facility siting and financing program.
