Minutes - City of San Leandro City Council and Page - 6 - <br />San Leandro Redevelopment Agency Meeting - August 18, 1997 <br />Terri Neumann, Chairman of the San Leandro Chamber of Commerce, <br />addressed the Council in support of the proposal. She noted it <br />represents a new tax base, new jobs, and needed services. She <br />complimented Mr. Irmer for his diligence in obtaining community <br />support and urged Council's approval of the project. <br />Ann Hague, 1102 San Rafael Court, addressed the Council and echoed <br />the comments of the persons before her who spoke in favor of the <br />project and added that she has enjoyed sitting on the site committee. <br />She continued by stating everything about this development is first <br />class. She urged the Council to approve the proposal. <br />Kai Bender, 261 Begier Avenue, addressed the Council in support of <br />the proposed development. He thanked Mr. Irmer for his efforts and <br />added that this proposal sets the precedent for future developments. <br />He feels the developer really listened to the community and concluded <br />by stating he feels the developer has done a fine job on this <br />project. <br />Lou Filipovich, 15376 Laverne Drive, addressed the Council, <br />commenting that, if the project was so great, it should have been <br />funded privately, not with Redevelopment Agency funding. He added <br />that the Redevelopment Agency is only accountable to the elected <br />officials that form them. The Redevelopment Agency doesn't own the <br />land, the taxpayers do.
