CityCouncil | 2010-04-20 | 24 | transportation mitigation for each unit up to 1,000 units, which is described as the first phase of the project; in return, Chinatown agreed that they would not submit a lawsuits for the first phase. Mayor/Chair Johnson inquired how the matter fits with current discussions, to which the Planning Services Manager responded the mitigation payment still applies; mitigation required for units beyond the first 1,000 is unresolved with Chinatown. Mayor/Chair Johnson stated the Alameda Point Community Partners (APCP) plan was for 1,800 units; inquired how the proposal for more units fits into the agreement. The Planning Services Manager responded the agreement requires that the City coordinate with Chinatown through the entire environmental process, allows for a pre- determined mitigation payment for the first 1,000 units, and does not limit what the City can do in terms of an ultimate development envelope for Alameda Point; the City understood that there would be more than 1,000 units; the key is to coordinate the EIR process with the Chinatown process. Mayor/Chair Johnson inquired whether there have to be mitigation measures after first 1,000 units. The Planning Services Manager responded in the affirmative; stated the Planning Board representative on the Chinatown committee does wants to start conversations now and does not want to wait until the EIR is published. Mayor/Chair Johnson inquired what number is being used as the basis for discussions. The Planning Services Manager responded Chinatown work with whatever number the City puts out; until recently, Chinatown was working with the Measure B number; Chinatown will be working with the new application number once the Notice of Preparation is released. Speakers: Frank Faye, SunCal; and Rosemary McNally, Alameda. Following Mr. Faye's comments, Vice Chair/Board Member/Commissioner deHaan inquired whether costs that SunCal wishes to recover could be broken down. Mr. Faye responded in the affirmative; stated SunCal is not seeking to recover costs; the arrangement with the City is that monies are pulled out of a special escrow account set up with the City quite some time ago; the City has a record of each and every expenditure from the time that checks were issued and payments were made; that SunCal is happy to make anything available. Vice Mayor/Board Member/Commissioner deHaan inquired whether there would be a Special Joint Meeting Alameda City Council, Alameda 4 Reuse and Redevelopment Authority, and Community Improvement Commission April 20, 2010 | CityCouncil/2010-04-20.pdf |
