Mr. Swift said that maximum only applied to new projects and there were no requests <br />from any of the new projects to move units further out. The units Signature requested to be <br />moved to an earlier year is not a reallocation and does not count against them. <br /> <br /> Mr. Tarver referred to the entitlement issue. Growth Management allocations seem to <br />be like gold and the developers will not release them. Not only will the apartment development <br />not happen, there is also an application to rezone the property to office use. <br /> <br /> Ms. Michelotti felt the staff report was difficult to understand and appreciated the <br />comments of the growth management committee. Moving the Signature Properties units is <br />helpful and she hopes the program will more accurately reflect reality. The staff report does <br />give details of what has actually been built and how many permits were pulled. Those numbers <br />are considerably less than what is included in the projections. <br /> <br /> Mr. Pico understood the difficulties of this program, but felt people were playing games <br />with the program. The City is no where near the targets set by the General Plan. In 1995, 100 <br />units were moved for the Case Avenue project which are really being built in 1996. The St. <br />Johns Place is another example of permits issued in 1995, but construction didn't happen until <br />1996. The Stanley Seniors project is another example. There are about 220 units that were <br />allocated for 1996 and you add that to 650 units projected for the current year. That is 870 units <br />and he does not feel those kinds of games should be played. The numbers do not reflect what <br />is happening with development in the community. <br /> <br /> Mr. Tarver agreed. There have been too many examples of playing with the numbers <br />to make the units fit and he is looking forward to completion of the study to look at how to <br />handle the situation. Given the current process and the rules that apply, he felt the committee <br />did a remarkable job of getting the numbers down. <br /> <br />The roll call vote was as follows: <br />AYES: Councilmembers - Dennis, Michelotti, Mohr, and Mayor Tarver <br />NOES: Councilmember Pico <br />ABSENT: None <br />ABSTAIN: None <br /> <br /> 09/17/96 <br /> <br /> <br />
