Minutes - City of San Leandro City Council Meeting November 17, 1997 Page - 6 - County and Federal tax incentives to hire formerly on welfare or community general assistance. These incentives can be as much as X3,500 or 13% rebate on the first 26 weeks of the employee's salary...." He noted he feels we are establishing something that will be benefiting someone because they are going to hire somebody because they are also going to be benefiting and the taxpayers are picking up the whole tab - whether it comes from the Federal government or the State. He concluded by stating he feels this should be looked into - all the T's crossed, all the I's dotted. He noted he is aware of three different gatherings going on today in San Leandro that are discussing development, redevelopment, and everything else that goes along with it. It is not an issue that is not being considered within the City of San Leandro. It is not going to go away - it will have to be responded to in a proper way and manner. June Catalano introduced Jerry Hunt and Ethan Daniels, representing Pacific Retail Trust, which has recently purchased the Plaza I Shopping Center. They commented briefly on their vision for the center and noted they are a local firm in Walnut Creek. They are committed to providing the highest level of service to the community. H.
