(*17-120) Recommendation to Accept the Quarterly Sales Tax Report for the Period Ending September 30, 2016 Collected During the Period April 1, 2016 to June 30, 2016. Accepted. (17-121) Recommendation to Receive the 6-Month Status Update on the Enterprise District Development Approach (July 2016 to December 2016). Stated business parks should not be built without housing; housing is needed; commercial development should be leveraged for affordable housing: Angela Hockabout, Renewed Hope. In response to Mayor Spencer's inquiry, the Base Reuse Director stated the development is part of a larger mixed-use development; the area focuses on jobs; 18,000 jobs were lost when the Base closed causing an imbalance of housing and jobs; the no-cost conveyance is supposed to replace jobs; a condition of getting the land under the no-cost, economic conveyance agreement with the Navy requires focusing on a mixed-use community and bringing jobs that were lost when the Base was closed; the 20 to 30 year plan makes sure commercial land is available. Mayor Spencer stated if more than 1,400 homes are built, the City would have to pay $50,000 per unit, which will be inflated over time. Councilmember Matarrese stated the point of closed military bases is to replace lost jobs; the need for balance is important; jobs left, but houses did not leave. Councilmember Matarrese moved approval of the staff recommendation. Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft Seconded the motion which carried by unanimous voice votes - 5.
