CityCouncil | 2005-02-01 | 10 | Gilmore's challenge to have property owners and residents work together and provide suggestions; no one in Alameda has not been offended by the actions of 15 Asset Management Group. Councilmember Matarrese stated that he is looking for some type of quantifiable action in going forward; over the last year and a half, Council had knowledge of the crime situation around the complex; Housing Authority reports stated Section 8 units were being decertified because standards were not being met; requested the City Manager to compile indicators such as crime, Code Enforcement complaints, and Housing Authority Section 8 de- certification which would allow Council to set a policy on how to react should there be another large complex that is spinning in the same fashion as the Harbor Island Apartments situation. Mayor Johnson requested an inventory of ordinances that have not been strongly enforced to allow Council to set a policy on enforcement. Councilmember Matarrese requested staff to review the Harbor Island Apartments in relation to Alameda Municipal Code Section 13-11.3 Mayor Johnson requested an inventory of ordinances that apply to Alameda, whether State or local. Councilmember deHaan stated that he would like to review how other cities have utilized the State ordinances and whether other cities have been effective. Mayor Johnson stated that it is important for the Council to set a policy utilizing existing ordinances. Councilmember Daysog requested feedback from staff on his draft voluntary relocation assistance. Vice Mayor Gilmore stated that going through the process has raised public awarenessi a committee of tenant and landlord representatives should be formed to keep the momentum going and discuss the issues; landlords have been reactionary to tenants' ideas; landlords and tenants should work more cooperatively in developing ideas for preventing the situation from occurring again. Mayor Johnson requested that suggestions on the framework of the committee be brought back to Council at the next City Council meeting. Vice Mayor Gilmore moved that staff follow up on direction provided tonight. Regular Meeting Alameda City Council 10 February 1, 2005 | CityCouncil/2005-02-01.pdf |
