CityCouncil | 2007-01-02 | 29 | Counci lmember deHaan stated public transportation options would be available if the project becomes all-successful. Vice Mayor Tam stated she has concerns with terms such as "being wildly successful"; transportation plans are tied to some type of trip generation or mitigation measure; inquired whether there is some way to project the development eventually have the option of spreading the impact to other development projects. The Supervising Planner responded no commitments are made in the environmental documents. Vice Mayor Tam stated her issue is nexus; linkage needs to be established between what is required of the development project and what is attributable. The Base Reuse and Community Development Manager stated a legal nexus is not required as long as there is a contractual agreement that has been negotiated; the criteria of performance that exceeds the Performa would be more precise when staff comes back in two weeks. Mr. Marshall stated the harder part would be to define the performance standard to the TDM Program. Councilmember deHaan inquired about the measurement criteria. The Base Reuse and Community Development Manager responded the DA would reference the fact that the evaluation criteria would be developed by the Transportation Commission and Planning Board as part of the approval of the TDM Program that would be presented as part of the first development plan. Vice Mayor Tam moved approval of postponing the final passage for DA 06-0003 with direction to staff to develop alternatives on modifying the development agreement to reflect discussions regarding tying the TDM Program measures to some performance objectives in terms of the pace in which the development proceeds. Mayor Johnson stated three options would come back to Council; requested that the TDM Program Coordinator make a recommendation to Council each year on the TDM Program and budget. Councilmember Matarrese requested Vice Mayor Tam to confirm that the motion is to amend DA-06-0003 to include three options to increase the TDM Program at year five; said agreement would come back in two weeks; the TDM Program coordinator would make a Regular Meeting Alameda City Council 29 January 2, 2007 | CityCouncil/2007-01-02.pdf |
