CityCouncil | 2012-06-06 | 7 | Vice Mayor Bonta inquired whether the same changes would be implemented for WABA, to which the Community Development Director responded in the affirmative. Vice Mayor Bonta inquired whether there was one protest from WABA, to which the Community Development Director responded there were two: one letter and one call. In response to Vice Mayor Bonta's further inquiry, the Community Development Director stated one did not like the streetscape project; the other did not want to participate. On the call for the question, the motion carried by unanimous voice vote - 5. (12-289) Provide Direction on Disposition and Development Strategy for Alameda Point Based on a Presentation of Alternatives. The Chief Operating Officer - Alameda Point gave a brief presentation. Vice Mayor Bonta stated the enhanced entitlement certainty proposal does not include Town Center entitlement; inquired whether the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) grant would provide said entitlements. The Chief Operating Officer - Alameda Point responded in the affirmative; stated detailed residential entitlements would be the only thing not funded by the grant. In response to Mayor Gilmore's inquiry regarding what the MTC grant would fund, the Chief Operating Officer - Alameda Point stated the grant would fund detailed entitlements for the Town Center and waterfront area, but would not fund detailed entitlements for the residential area. Mayor Gilmore inquired whether the MTC grant would fund a marketing and site plan and transaction documents for the employment area needed to market a site for a potential commercial opportunity, to which the Chief Operating Officer - Alameda Point responded in the negative; stated the work does not require a lot of funding and would be funded under the scaled down proposal. Mayor Gilmore inquired whether the grant would fund the development plan, including form-based code, needed to implement Town Center development, to which the Chief Operating Officer - Alameda Point responded in the affirmative. Mayor Gilmore inquired whether the City would not be getting the third part [detailed engineering analysis and large-lot subdivision map needed to sell "super pads" for residential and Town Center development]. The Chief Operating Officer - Alameda Point responded in the affirmative; stated having one developer for the Town Center is less likely, which means outside source funding would be a great benefit to the City; having a Master Developer fund the residential would be easier.
