DRAFT MINUTES <br /> Page 3 <br />November 6, 2006 <br />City of San Leandro City Council and San Leandro Redevelopment Agency Joint Meeting— <br /> <br /> <br />Bob Fox, San Leandro resident, <br />addressed the City Council, requesting the City <br />Council postpone the decision on the moratorium extension until the new City Council <br />takes office. <br /> <br />There being no further comments from the public, and without objection, the Public <br />Hearing was closed. <br /> <br />Vice Mayor Grant commented on the letters of opposition received by the Council, <br />and asked if existing businesses within the affected area would be able to continue <br />operations after the Downtown TOD Strategy is completed. Mr. Hom confirmed that <br />the existing businesses would be grandfathered in. Vice Mayor Grant asked how the <br />opportunity sites were chosen, and Mr. Hom described the factors, including vacancy, <br />location, size, current zoning, and future development potential, that staff and the <br />Citizens Advisory Committee considered in identifying the sites. <br /> <br />Vice Mayor Grant stated that she attended a meeting earlier this week with staff from <br />BART, and they expressed concerns about the City’s moratorium and its impact on <br />BART’s potential projects. She described the Downtown TOD Strategy to them as <br />identifying areas of opportunity and combining Council, business and community <br />interests in a cohesive fashion to maximize the benefit from those properties. BART <br />staff recognized that the process could also be beneficial to them. <br /> <br />Councilmember Santos asked what effect the passage of State Proposition 90 would <br />have on the moratorium. City Attorney Jayne Williams indicated that current land <br />uses would not be affected if Prop 90 passed; however, it could affect future land use <br />decisions. <br /> <br />Councilmember Santos commented that he observed what he considered to be severe <br />environmental impacts, especially noise, along the BART corridor. He stated that he <br />has expressed concern for some time about the types of construction materials used <br />along transit corridors and suggested requiring the use of noise-reducing materials for <br />new construction in these areas. <br /> <br />Vice Mayor Grant asked whether the Council could lift the moratorium before one <br />year has elapsed. Ms. Williams stated the Council could lift the moratorium at any <br />time prior to its expiration. <br /> <br />Councilmember Starosciak asked about the impact of postponing the decision. Mr. <br />Hom indicated that the 45-day moratorium would expire before the next City Council <br />meeting, and any pending applications would have to be processed. Mr. Hom noted <br />that staff recommends the Council adopt the ordinance tonight so that no break in the <br />period for the moratorium will occur. Ms. Williams indicated that if the moratorium <br />expires, the Council may not reenact it. <br /> <br />? <br /> Ordinance No. 2006-018 <br />, an Interim Urgency Ordinance Making Findings and <br />Extending Ordinance No. 2006-017, Prohibiting Consideration and Approval of <br /> <br />
