Council Member Grant commented that the Millennium Committee will be meeting <br />on September 12 to discuss activities they will be embarking upon. <br /> <br />D. Council Member Galvan commented on the "mega homes" issue and indicated <br />there are two in his District. He indicated they block the views of other <br />homeowners and that there is a need to protect the charm and character of the <br />neighborhood. He feels the City Attorney should take a look at a potential <br />ordinance that would protect a homeowner's view on their property. <br /> <br />Council Member Galvan also suggested that there is a need to have a dialog with <br />the owners of apartment buildings about what is fair and reasonable relative to <br />rental housing rents in San Leandro. He feels it is necessary to pull people <br />together in the industry to have a discussion about the issue. <br /> <br />The Mayor thanked Council Member Galvan for his participation on this issue and <br />indicated she would like to stay away from the issue of rent control in San Leandro <br />but perhaps have a discussion with the Rental Housing Owners Association. <br /> <br />After a brief discussion, the City Council agreed to forming an Ad Hoc <br />Committee, consisting of Council Members Galvan, Loeft1er and Mayor Young, to <br />facilitate discussions between the Rental Housing Owners Association. It was <br />additionally suggested that Eden Area Mediation be invited to attend those <br />discussions. <br /> <br />Minute Order No. 2000-48.
