CityCouncil | 2017-03-21 | 6 | Councilmember Matarrese moved adoption of the resolution appointing Jeff Cambra. Councilmember Oddie seconded the motion. Under discussion, Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft stated that she appreciates Mr. Cambra volunteering for the RRAC position, but there is a mixture of opinion on both sides; the RRAC has gone through a lot of challenges and she would like the situation to be as non-controversial as possible; she will not be supporting Mr. Cambra's appointment. Councilmember Oddie stated Mr. Cambra's understanding of the Rent Ordinance and his strength and experience as a mediator will be helpful to the RRAC. On the call for the question, the motion carried by the following voice vote: Ayes: Councilmembers Matarrese, Oddie, Vella and Mayor Spencer - 4. Noes: Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft - 1.

(Base Reuse 819099) The Redevelopment Project Manager gave a Power Point presentation.

In response to Mayor Spencer's inquiry, the Redevelopment Project Manager stated the scenarios were included as analysis examples. Mayor Spencer inquired whether Scenario 4 is off the table, to which the Redevelopment Project Manager responded the scenarios are not being discussed at this time; stated the next step would be to go through a developer selection process. Councilmember Oddie inquired whether Scenario 4 shows the highest percentage of workforce units that could be done while still meeting the feasibility threshold. James Edison, Wildan Financial Services, responded in the affirmative; stated Scenario 4 shows the policy tradeoffs and mixes of units; each scenario illustrates the range of possibilities; Council has discretion to choose how many units make the project feasible.
