(Minutes/Discussion)
Anthony Molloy, Redevelopment Manager, presented a summary of this item,
and stated staff recommends denial of the request for an extension of time due
to the lack of progress and lack of confidence in the developer.
Doug Sanderson, 89117, representing the applicant, commented that he has
been on board with this project for three weeks. He noted some of the
conditions are in process. He stated a check for the Water Street District was
delivered yesterday. Mr. Sanderson said if there is a denial or no vote taken on
this item, the project will be stalled for at least 18 months. He stated the
applicant can meet three more justifications, including the $8 million and project
manager.
Member Marz said that the Agency worked very hard to give the applicant every
opportunity to build this project. He said he has lost complete confidence in
their ability to perform.
Members Romero and Stewart concurred with Member Marz’s comments.
Chairman March stated she is disappointed by the lack of progress that has
been accomplished over the last two years. She said based on the developer’s
inability to meet any previous deadlines, and despite several extensions, she
has no confidence that this project will move forward.
