Do we have any questions for our staff? 75 00:06:11,740 --> 00:06:12,400 I have a question. 76 00:06:13,300 --> 00:06:17,040 How is the $750,000 number 77 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,040 determined? Is it based on units, 78 00:06:21,100 --> 00:06:25,400 a certain price per unit, or negotiated between the two? 79 00:06:25,900 --> 00:06:32,440 It was on the go-shade, between our fire department and the developer. 80 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:41,920 And it basically looked at the cost of servicing the area and the needs of the community based on the new development. 81 00:06:45,510 --> 00:06:47,270 The following question said that. 82 00:06:47,450 --> 00:06:55,450 So there's my understanding is there's maybe not applicable at the time but there are now use fees that would be similar to like so if a new development 83 00:06:58,050 --> 00:07:08,270 We're in a process of adopting formal fire impact fees, had those been in place then we wouldn't have needed this at the time, but those will take effect. 84 00:07:08,850 --> 00:07:15,250 We'll be heard for a second hearing at the city council next Tuesday and then take effect 30 days after if they're adopted. 85 00:07:15,250 --> 00:07:22,150 And so, for future developments, we wouldn't need this as a method to collect those fees. 86 00:07:22,810 --> 00:07:26,690 But in this case, because there were no adopted fees of the time, this is a mechanism to do that. 87 00:07:27,170 --> 00:07:31,430 And do you have a rough idea of how the if the fees are adopted as proposed? 88 00:07:32,010 --> 00:07:37,070 How does fees for this project would compare to the $750,000 that are in the payment? 89 00:07:38,110 --> 00:07:42,910 Yes, I believe we'd be in a similar or better situation than the fees that were. 90 00:07:43,990 --> 00:07:48,530 So the development agreement puts us in a better situation, or if the fees would. 91 00:07:48,970 --> 00:07:53,230 In this case, I think this works out in the city's favor. 92 00:07:54,470 --> 00:07:57,270 By the same time, it gives some rights to the developer. 93 00:07:58,790 --> 00:07:59,590 Thank you. 94 00:07:59,890 --> 00:08:00,610 Another question. 95 00:08:01,490 --> 00:08:02,190 That's 750. 96 00:08:03,150 --> 00:08:09,110 Is that available before the issuing of the phase one? 97 00:08:12,230 --> 00:08:22,510 So 307,000 would be before CFO phase 1, and then 363 before phase 2. 98 00:08:24,870 --> 00:08:32,630 Another question is, this is 10 year ramps between phase 1 and phase 2 and the next year. 99 00:08:32,630 --> 00:08:42,890 So how about if we have here is a 750,000 in counting all inflation and if we increase anything? 100 00:08:43,170 --> 00:08:45,750 I don't believe so, it's a flat fee. 101 00:08:47,780 --> 00:08:57,860 So have we put those things into the counting into the, like, your father at the negotiating for the 750,000? 102 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,420 I think that 750,000 would cover everything we're in the cities in the, 103 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:08,740 the negotiator fee to come tomorrow, or five years down the road, I think that the 104 00:09:08,740 --> 00:09:14,060 700 and 50,000 would cover the city's expectations for what would be needed for that area. 105 00:09:17,270 --> 00:09:21,610 Can you go into a little bit more detail about the affordable housing component, because I 106 00:09:21,610 --> 00:09:28,390 heard something about needing to get either a waiver or something and approve between the 107 00:09:28,390 --> 00:09:32,850 phase one of the phase two related to the affordable housing, could you expand on that, please? 108 00:09:33,530 --> 00:09:40,970 There's an affordable housing, so the way we're structuring this, we're going to do an affordable housing agreement for each tower. 109 00:09:43,330 --> 00:09:48,290 We're working on that right now with the developers team and our attorneys. 110 00:09:49,990 --> 00:09:54,930 Hopefully that goes to the City Council soon, but that would be just for the North Tower. 111 00:09:56,130 --> 00:09:59,950 And then there will be a separate affordable housing agreement that's developed. 112 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:07,120 So, we're talking about very similar to the first one that will be for the south or the phase two portion of the project. 113 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:17,340 It sets income limits, maintenance responsibility, lunch of information, it's a very long document. 114 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,640 But that didn't, those two in itself just go to the city council for review. 115 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:29,900 Okay, we've done what we're doing that that way is because there are separate properties with separate buildings and so theoretically they're being developed as one project. 116 00:10:29,900 --> 00:10:38,360 Yeah, but it's two parcels. Right, and so they could one could be sold off and we wouldn't want we'd have we like a separate document for each. Yeah. Yeah, that makes sense. Thank you. 117 00:10:41,710 --> 00:10:43,130 Any other questions for staff? 118 00:10:44,490 --> 00:10:47,250 Just for comparison across the street. 119 00:10:47,810 --> 00:10:51,550 Or there are different they had a development agreement correct. Do they have one? 120 00:10:51,550 --> 00:10:57,070 Nothing. I don't believe so. So there was no fire protection. Nothing over there. 121 00:10:58,170 --> 00:10:58,270 Okay. 122 00:10:58,270 --> 00:11:05,910 So we appreciate this developer working with the city and negotiating with us on this because we believe they're needed to protect their residence area 123 00:11:12,370 --> 00:11:18,030 Thank you, staff.

Okay. Do we have any comments on this item? Thank you sir. Okay. Bill Hunter? 177 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:46,300 I guess a little introduction is appropriate. I was moved into Vali in 1978. 178 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:52,840 I've been a volunteer policeman now for 13 years with RSVP. 179 00:15:53,880 --> 00:16:00,200 And my interest in the property, this property we're talking about is that I live across the freeway from it on the other side. 180 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:05,880 And since the new bridges went in, the noise is that's 181 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:10,160 generated by those new bridges is really surprising because they're taller, 182 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,820 and they shoot the noise right over the top of the sound walls. 183 00:16:14,660 --> 00:16:19,360 And if you wanted to really concentrate or find that spot where that works, 184 00:16:20,460 --> 00:16:22,620 it's maple street and daisy. 185 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:28,160 There's a bridge on Magnolia, Bridge on Bouchard, 186 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:36,300 And they're like this, and they both bolts the noise right down onto Daisy and maple. 187 00:16:37,060 --> 00:16:45,840 If you wanted to see that for yourself, anyway, my concern is this seven-story building is probably going to do a whole lot more than those bridges did. 188 00:16:46,420 --> 00:16:51,820 And I thought maybe there was going to be somebody here with a handout that you'd show what this building is going to look like, 189 00:16:51,820 --> 00:16:58,180 there's products on a look like is there anything that has demonstrates what this place looks like? 190 00:16:59,780 --> 00:17:04,980 So did you finish your comments and then if you have questions, you can try to trust them after I did. 191 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:13,040 Concert about noise abatement, you know, because they're going to be bouncing all of that freeway noise right off the walls of this thing. 192 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:17,200 In other words, this is saying, this way, is it parallel to the freeway? 193 00:17:17,360 --> 00:17:18,660 Is it and ways to the freeway? 194 00:17:18,740 --> 00:17:22,000 How much noise is going to bounce off of those into my neighborhood? 195 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:23,660 That's much by concern. 196 00:17:25,730 --> 00:17:28,150 Do you have any other comments for us? 197 00:17:28,790 --> 00:17:29,450 Do I have a comment? 198 00:17:29,750 --> 00:17:32,250 Yeah, so when we do the public comment, 199 00:17:32,390 --> 00:17:33,790 we don't get to have a dialogue. 200 00:17:34,110 --> 00:17:36,530 We listen to you, and then we're going to have our discussion. 201 00:17:37,750 --> 00:17:40,430 But if you're done speaking, then you may have a question. 202 00:17:40,430 --> 00:17:42,130 Well, that's all my concern. 203 00:17:42,130 --> 00:17:47,690 And I'm just wondering if there has been any consideration, paid to sound abatement. 204 00:17:48,270 --> 00:17:52,250 In other words, the construction of the building, I'm sure, people that build those things, 205 00:17:52,630 --> 00:17:54,950 know which way the sound is coming from and which way it's going. 206 00:17:55,550 --> 00:18:00,730 And if they deflect it or position the building on the property in a certain way, they might 207 00:18:00,730 --> 00:18:06,030 be able to deflect that sound to where it doesn't, it's not as offensive as it could be. 208 00:18:06,450 --> 00:18:10,190 So that was my idea, I wanted to find out if anything was being done in that area. 209 00:18:10,190 --> 00:18:15,030 Okay, so we're really not prepared to answer those kinds of questions for you tonight. 210 00:18:15,410 --> 00:18:17,950 Two things I can tell you.

So when people commit crimes in the city and leave, 607 00:54:03,610 --> 00:54:08,950 we capture their data as they're leaving. Some of them, you know, obviously, are in high-crime 608 00:54:08,950 --> 00:54:16,490 areas. We've placed them over there as well. The funding for these?
