We don't have money, for we're 10 million dollars in debt now in our budget.
We don't have any money for the Open Space deficit. 300 million.
You've got 10 to replace it for affordable housing, and we have none, and we have homeless all over the place.
This application is subject to potential call up on or before. June 23rd 2025.
The proposal includes maintaining an existing deck and retaining wall along the edge of the ditch which has been reviewed and approved by flood control staff
The Bvcp designates the property. High density residential, which consists of attached residential units and complementary uses implemented through zoning
Staff found that the proposed Site Review Amendment is on balance consistent with the land use map and policies of the Bvcp.
So our Flood Review staff has reviewed it, and they had no issue with with the location and the deck as it exists today.
We still could not get down to the required parking spaces for this facility, because it had been a special use with an assisted living
can you confirm what is the date that city council is considering eliminating parking minimums
I actually think that the worst outcome that we can have in a review like this is that we make a demolition. The easiest.
They have worked through all of our parking requirements which are yet to be rescinded.
the solution to providing housing in this place, meeting our climate goals while not deconstructing buildings.
We also have a Bvcp and we have goals as a city, and we have goals as clearly stated in the Bvcp.
This is in proximity to a multimodal corridor and a transit center, and it is going to lower density and is not contributing to affordable housing goals
None of this is served by a 3,200 square foot single unit home, close to downtown.
Now bring this around to this situation I found occupancy limits to be a morally wrong role of governance.
when we eliminated occupancy limits it was exactly properties like this that suddenly could house could be 4 people could be 8.
And I know that you guys are really working through that. And I think that's really helpful for future applicants as well
I sent you all a email that basically repeated what press release was sent about the city's budget
I would clarify that when councils. deciding whether to call up something or another, they're not debating the substance of the matter
