Green St. Ithaca, NY 14850 (607) 274-6565 DRAFT MINUTES ITHACA URBAN RENEWAL AGENCY (IURA) NEIGHBORHOOD INVESTMENT COMMITTEE (NIC) 8:30 A.M., Friday, July 12, 2024 Council Chambers, City Hall, Ithaca, NY Recording of Meeting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4nDpOtLkoU In attendance: Karl Graham, Chair; Fernando de Aragón; Steven Williams; Brian Toy. Excused: Shaianne Osterreich, Vice Chair; Mary Baker Staff: Anisa Mendizabal, Community Development Planner; Nels Bohn, Director of Community Development Guest(s): Peggy Tully, City of Ithaca Sidewalk Program Manager I. Call to Order The Chair called the meeting to order at 8:41 a.m. II. Changes/Additions to Agenda The Chair indicated that the order of the agenda could change to accommodate the presenter. III. Public Comment None. IV. Review of Minutes V. New Business A. Action Item: Resolution – Consent to Change of Ownership of 2007 Project #1, “Cedar Creek Housing” The question of why the item is coming to NIC and not Economic Development Committee (EDC) arose and was discussed. Matters regarding housing normally come to NIC. Bohn later joined and expanded on reasons for this (26:00). Is there a cash transaction involved? Bohn: INHS will make a small payment to cover some of the exiting investor’s taxes related to the site. Is there a change in the property taxes? This transaction does not impact property taxes. Cedar Creek was one of INHS’s first tax credit projects. Tax credit projects require initial 1 ownership by a for-profit investor. After a required time period, the investor may exit the project [and it can go back to local control through ownership by a local entity, as in this case]. INHS has done many tax credit projects since Cedar Creek. Mendizabal told the group that Lynn Truame, INHS Director of Real Estate, will come talk to NIC about the financing of tax credit projects and potentially future projects in October 2024. De Aragón moved the resolution. Graham seconded. Adopted 4-0. B. Discussion Item: City Sidewalks with Peggy Tully, City of Ithaca Sidewalk Program Manager 2 Ms. Tully announced a public comment opportunity. Ms. Tully’s presentation, which included a PowerPoint presentation, began in earnest (28:28). The Sidewalk Improvement District (SID) program is about 10 years old. At the time it was instituted, about 80% of City sidewalks were in poor condition. Repairs were costly, ADA compliance was low, burden for sidewalk repair fell to property owners. Most City neighborhoods are involved in SID. An exception is the Commons, which is a Business Improvement District that makes its own arrangements for maintenance. Examples of fees per type of property were provided (37:00), as was the budget for 2024 and amount collected per District (38:50). When properties are redeveloped, at Site Plan Review, SID has the ability to request sidewalks be installed as part of the project, and it usually makes those requests. (42:00) Williams asked about plans for alternatives to concrete (43:00). The Sidewalk Program has investigated several materials, and there are no current plans to use a different material. Concrete is the most durable. What about climate impacts? Concrete projects are known to be highly impactful. This is true, but other materials are as well, though some materials’ impacts are often extended over time. Asphalt becomes a heat sink and needs resealing and repair every 5 years, for example. Maintenance can be difficult for recycled plastic [another alternative material] -- especially in winter-- and the materials contributed to the recycling can be harmful. There are trade-offs for all of these materials. Some porous alternatives are very exciting, yet in practice, the pores become blocked and need vacuuming with special vacuum twice a year. Ms. Tully pointed out that granite is extremely durable and has lasted centuries in some countries, but the cost is prohibitive. Williams brought up the difficulty posed to those using wheelchairs (54:50) because concrete heaves and cracks. Ms. Tully agreed. She discussed the required specifications for a durable, useful sidewalk. When repairs and maintenance were left to property owners, the repairs were often made at lowest cost possible, which resulted in repeated cracking and other problems. Instituting the SID meant the quality of the sidewalk repairs and ADA compliance could be constant. De Aragón pointed out that much relies on incremental improvements and noted that perhaps FLIC [Finger Lakes Independence Center] could be consulted regarding particular needs. Ms. Tully affirmed that she consults with FLIC. She shared a previous year’s example of receiving public comment about a child’s inability to reach their elementary school in their wheelchair which consequently resulted in specific stretch of sidewalk improvements. Mendizabal (59:45) noted IURA has funded ADA-compliant curb cuts where they hadn’t previously existed [this is an example of removal of architectural barriers]. Further on the topic of equity: IURA Staff and Sidewalk Program Staff and Supervisor have met regarding equity issues. Snow-Free Crosswalks Coalition has consulted with both IURA Staff and SID 3 Staff. The Sidewalk Program does not have control over crosswalks, but works to advocate and collaborate with other departments. Tully explained that if work is being executed on a full blook of sidewalk, ADA upgrades (e.g. curb cuts) are required. Mendizabal asked (1:07) if other work is being done, but not a full block’s worth and there were outside funding available to correct non-existent curb cuts (install curb cuts) at a non-contiguous but nearby corner, could SID include that work (with outside funds)? Yes. Projects SID anticipates potentially bringing forward for IURA consideration were shared (1:09:50), along with SID construction budget - District 4 (1:15:40). The current SID map and possibilities for change was discussed (1:20:00). C. Discussion Item: Coalition for Snow-Free Crosswalks Mendizabal consulted with the Coalition for Snow-Free Crosswalks for the 2024 Consolidated Plan and thought NIC would be interested in the issues brought forward. This group and topic have appeared before Common Council in the past and will likely come before Common Council again. A proposal could possibly be made to IURA during an Action Planning, though this Coalition has been working for some time and is experiencing some fatigue. Mendizabal noted that July 26 is the 30th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The Coalition has raised the issue that when streets are cleared of snow in winter, the snow gets pushed into crosswalks and generally is not removed. This condition presents barrier to almost everyone - elders, people using mobility devices, people with visual impairments (consultation included one such individual), people with toddlers or strollers, people with things in their hands. The barrier continues as the snow stays, ices over, cannot be removed. The Coalition reports that some people with disabilities are consequently stuck inside their homes for long stretches of winter. De Aragón asked if there are any strategies under consideration (1:32:20). Some that have been discussed are identification of priority areas for snow removal; volunteer mobilization; and a Block Leaders system, suggested by De Aragón. There are logistical issues that need to be surmounted. For example, weather unpredictability means that staffing plans can’t be concrete; student/volunteer schedules fluctuate, especially with school breaks; and that addressing complex coordination may require a paid volunteer coordinator. The group noted that remedying this issue has much potential to bring together communities. Mendizabal reported that the City of Rochester had an initiative to clear sidewalks/crosswalks during Mayor Lovely Warren’s administration-- perhaps it was on the books and needed reinvigoration; it is unclear that there was “sufficient” budget yearly. Graham noted that systemic approach is needed. Consider New Roots Charter School, which seems to have a volunteer component for its students. CCE’s/County’s Master Gardeners/Beautification Brigade also could be a model. Toy departed at 10:24 am; quorum lost. No more voting items. 4  VI. Other Business A. IURA Grants Summary Mendizabal is reaching out to agencies that haven’t vouchered e.g. CCTT for its prior year service delivery contract. Ithaca Community Gardens is almost complete. B. Staff Report Mendizabal reported that the 2024-2028 Consolidated Plan was submitted on time to HUD for review. TCAT Bus Stop Upgrade project is now complete and has been visually inspected by Mendizabal. A question was raised in previous meeting about whether IURA carries insurance for Officers and Committee Appointees (1:48:18) to protect in case of lawsuit. Yes, it does, Mendizabal affirmed, and provided some historical information. Northside Housing status: Mendizabal spoke with Ithaca Housing Authority’s Executive Director, Brenda Westfall, who reports being thrilled with the results. Residents are moving back in. Mendizabal provided a brief overview of a presentation she attended by the Food Bank of the Southern Tier. The organization serves 6-7 counties (mostly rural). Tompkins County has the second-highest need. They’ve seen the need go up due to pandemic but not really come down. VII. Motion to Adjourn Adjourned by consensus at 10:27 a.m. 5  of Tompkins and Cortland Counties July 10, 2024 Ithaca Urban Renewal Agency, Attn: Nels Bohn 108 E Green Street Ithaca, NY 14850 Dear Nels, Habitat for Humanity of Tompkins and Cortland Counties would like to request a 120-day extension to the termination deadline for our HOME grant as part of the 2022 HUD Entitlement Program. We request this extension for our projects located at 417 Aurora Street South and 109 Morris Avenue, both of which are included in “Project #4: Aurora St. & Morris Ave. Revitalization” as part of the 2022 HUD Entitlement Program, HOME Investment Partnerships Program. We are working diligently to rehabilitate and restore both homes and are making good progress towards completion; however, we are not certain that we can satisfactorily complete both projects per the terms of the grant agreement without some additional time. Thank you for your consideration of our request. If need be, I am happy to provide additional details on the status of these homes and our plans to complete construction and sell these properties to our income-qualified homebuyers as soon as possible. With thanks, Shannon MacCarrick Executive Director Habitat for Humanity of Tompkins and Cortland Counties PO Box 4683, Ithaca, NY 14852 tel (607) 844-3529 info@tchabitat.com tchabitat.com  108 E.

Aurora Street, it's been unusually difficult garnering the necessary amount of volunteerism to move the project along the timeline that was created, and that instead you are looking at increasing paid labor. In the case of the Morris Ave., a new buyer needs to be identified and that process, as well as closing may take longer than 120 days. The contract termination date was June 30, 2024. Per Section 8.5 of the funding agreement, I hereby authorize the 120-day extension to October 28, 2024 for this project to allow submission of vouchers for eligible costs incurred by that date. Please be reminded further extensions must be approved by the IURA Board. In our communication, Habitat was working to resolve the identified issues, and yet, due to unknowns such as how long identification of another buyer and closing would take, a further extension may be necessary. Such requests must be available for the Board to review prior to the expiration of the extension. The IURA Board generally meets on the fourth Thursday of each month. Should Habitat encounter further barriers to the completion of this project, please contact Anisa Mendizabal (amendizabal@cityofithaca.org), IURA Community Development Planner to discuss next steps.
