Luke,
all
those
in

and
now
we're
on
to
item
c2
the
affordable.
We
actually
took
the
liberty
to
reorganize
our
agenda
somewhat,
so
we're
gonna
start
off
with
public
hearing.
Let's
see
we're
gonna
move
on
to
the
station
area
plan
update,
and
for
that
conversation
we
have,
let's
see
who
we
have.
A
B
This
is
a
process
that
the
agency
is
undertaken.
Sue's
is
here
to
kind
of
give
you
some
background,
but
essentially
what
we
are
presenting
to
you
this
afternoon
is
a
summary
of
the
process
for
creating
this
station
center
area
plan,
as
well
as
its
findings
in
terms
of
recommendations
for
development
potential,
so
I'll
let
Sue's
expand
on
that
a
little
bit
and
introduce
our
consultants
all.
C
C
Eric
us
from
Urban
Design
Associates
out
of
Pittsburgh
and
Benj
Becker
from
science,
Public
Finance,
to
take
us
through
the
presentation,
and
we
also
have
Kevin
Leo
from
UTA
in
the
audience
and
Megan
Townsend
from
Wasatch
Front
regional
council
as
part
of
our
project,
team
and
Eric
will
take
us
through
the
presentation.
It
shows
the
significant
it's
a
result
of
a
significant
community
outreach
and
engagement
effort
and
the
presentation.
A
lot
of
the
information
was
presented
to
the
public
in
August
of
this
year.
So
just
to
kind
of
set
the
stage
Eric
talk,
Thank.
E
E
E
D
So,
as
Susan
mentioned
our
this
is
a
part
of
a
partnership
between
the
UDA
and
the
art
at
UTA
and
the
RDA
and
Wasatch
Front
Regional
Council
was
our
our
was
funding
this
this
effort,
the
team
was,
was
engaged
to
study
very
specific
parcels
which
are
shown
in
full
color
here,
but
also
kind
of
a
light
touch
or
general
recommendations
for
the
whole
district
to
look
comprehensively
at
the
district.
So
this
could
be
one
neighborhood
that
included
open
space
improvements
in
infrastructure
infrastructure
improvements
as
well.
D
This
consultant
team
that
was
chosen
UDA,
is
our
where
the
lead.
My
name
is
Eric
Haas
principal
in
charge
of
this
project.
We
also
have
Alta
planning
and
design
and
bench
backers
here
from
from
Zions
Bank,
as
Susan
mentioned,
the
our
steering
committee
included
Salt
Lake
City
divisions
of
planning,
transportation,
housing
and
Neighborhood
Development,
and
the
parks
and
public
lands.
D
A
D
Closer,
how
about
that?
We
always
work
on
three
three
different
phases
of
our
project.
Our
first
project,
part
of
the
project,
always
includes
listening,
we're
just
kind
of
community
input.
We
had
a
session
where
we
were
here
for
a
week,
working
with
all
the
stakeholder
groups
in
May.
We
had
a
second
session
in
July,
where
we
did
a
public
workshop
of
testing
and
then
now
we're
in
the
deciding
phase.
We
call
it
our
finalizing
our
plan
and
that's
where
we're
looking
forward
to
from
you.
We
met
with
nearly
200
stakeholders,
approximately
200
stakeholders.
D
We
interviewed
a
hundred
over
a
hundred
transit
riders
on
the
station
platform.
We
also
asked
these
three
questions
of
everyone.
What
are
the
strengths,
the
neighbourhood?
What
are
the
weaknesses
and
what
are
the
opportunities
as
a
way
to
open
the
door
for
conversation
for
a
broad
range
of
things,
but
it
also
gave
us
materials
that
are
comparable
from
one
group
to
another.
D
From
within,
improve
connectivity
between
downtown
and
the
west
neighbourhood,
but
also
from
this
neighborhood
to
downtown
and
to
the
west
west
Salt
Lake
City,
adding
value,
including
daily
needs
and
amenities
for
current
residents,
address
the
need
for
housing
and
housing
choices
for
all
and
finally,
embracing
transit,
locating
density
and
intensity
at
these
transit
nodes
and
also
improving
the
UTA
Reiter
experience
for
everyone
and
attracting
people
to
the
neighborhood.
The
community
feedback
is
in
this
this
diagram
here
which
at
first
sight
it
may
look
a
little
bit
of
a
bit
of
a
scattershot
diagram.
D
The
greens
are
the
strengths
and
you
can
see
them
clustering
around
pioneer
Park,
the
Gateway
in
the
arena.
The
Reds
are
what
we
call
the
weaknesses
which
are
around
200
South,
some
of
the
homelessness
issues
that
were
pointed
out
in
the
neighborhood,
and
some
of
the
rail
crossings
got
a
lot
of
red
dots
and
then
the
Blues
were
areas
for
opportunities
where
we
wanted
to
be
focusing
on,
and
you
could
see
the
Blues
clustering
on
a
lot
of
the
project
sites
that
we
were
working
on
is
including
a
pioneer
park
as
well.
D
D
One
of
the
things
that
was
interesting
about
this
process
is
when
we
were
engaged.
We
thought
that
we
would
be
obviously
providing
those
specific
design
for
those
UTA
and
those
already
a
parcels,
but
we
thought
that
we
would
be
needing
to
figure
out
what
might
be
going
on
in
the
neighborhood
and
new
efforts
and
new
issues.
D
But
one
of
the
things
that
came
right
up
boiled
right
up
through
the
process
is
that
there
are
a
lot
of
initiatives
that
are
underway
today
from
the
stuff
from
the
city,
and
these
initiatives
really
are
around
these
items:
Pioneer
Park,
homelessness,
resources,
the
Rio
Grande
Depot
station
center,
200
South,
Folsom,
Trail,
the
arena
gateway,
fifth,
fifth
West,
six
West
and
all
of
these
together,
making
a
patchwork
around
the
three.
Our
three
major
planning
areas,
I'm
gonna,
run
you
through
each
of
these
individually
Pioneer
Park,
is,
is
obviously
at
the
southeast
corner.
D
There's
been
a
lot
of
discussion
about
pioneer
Park
I.
Don't
need
to
spend
much
today,
but
we
feel
like
this
is
a
really
critical
component
for
the
success
of
the
neighborhood
and
for
all
of
downtown
Salt
Lake.
It's
absolutely
a
catalyst,
and
one
of
the
feedback
items
that
we
heard
from
a
number
of
folks
was
that
the
lack
of
open
space
in
the
neighborhood
and
obviously
there's
current
improvements
going
on
today,
right
now,
and
then
there
more
and
planned
for
in
the
future,
continuing
to
address
a
homelessness.
D
That
using
is
beyond
it.
So
in
some
ways
is
a
is
a
major
landmark,
but
getting
around
that
station
can
somewhat.
If
you
can
make
strong
direct
connections,
you
will
find
revitalization
work
in
that
direction.
So
connections
around
Rio
Grande
station
is
a
major
is
a
major
impediment
or
the
current
is
currently
a
pediment
ism.
Your
opportunity
for
making
stations
Center
the
planning
for
station
center
that
current
RDA
plans
here
work
in
the
future.
So
we're
recommending
multiple
connections
around
the
Rio
Grande
Depot.
Today,
the
500
West
Park
Blocks-
this
is
another
effort.
D
That's
been
going
on.
There's
that
there's
a
task
force,
that's
reviewed
a
number
of
alternatives
and
they
have
they
have
picked
a
pedestrian
focus.
Alternative
funding
is
required
for
the
interim
phase,
one
which
has
the
green
space
and
a
complete
in
the
complete
phase
two
Road
realignment.
This
is
in
the
three
to
five
year
time
window
at
the
end
of
this
process.
I'm
we're
gonna
put
this
together
into
a
kind
of
series
of
a
timeline
initiatives
in
order
to
kind
of
catalyze
development
and
work
together
here.
E
D
Yeah
there
was
a
traffic
study
done
for
that.
For
this,
this
particular
effort.
We
were
not
specifically
involved
in
the
design,
but
we
were.
We
were
made
aware
of
all
the
different
the
alternatives
and
we
were.
We
met
with
the
design
team
that
did
the
the
three
alternatives
and
share
with
them
with
us,
and
then
we
we
offered
our
opinion
to
to
what
would
be
the
most
pedestrian
oriented
which
we
did
not
factor
in
the
selection
of
this.
D
F
Just
to
add
I
think
the
part
of
the
design
funding
was
initially
funded
by
the
RDA
for
that
specific
project.
So
I
would
imagine,
and
it
said
there
that
phase
1
funding
would
be
required
for
phase
1,
and
so
you
could
speak
about
it
specifically
as
an
RDA
board.
If
they
came
back
for
a
funding
request
for
phase
1.
D
The
200
South
improvements,
we
heard
a
significant
amount
of
tutored
south
and
an
north
temple
are
the
two
major
connectors
through
the
neighborhood.
Today,
it's
really
challenging
to
get
past
I-15,
and
this
is
one
of
them.
We
heard
about
the
traffic
conditions
there,
but
it's
also
used
by
bikes
and
pedestrians,
and
it's
not
a
very
hospitable,
place
and
creates
a
barrier
from
the
north
and
south
and
the
neighborhood.
We
heard
a
consider
amount
of
the
opportunity
to
green
that
space
Admiral
at
a
media
or
more
trees
to
encourage
walkability
and
improvements
to
the
center.
D
To
this
to
this
particular
piece,
which
is
a
geographic
center
of
the
neighborhood
building
and
connecting
the
Folsom
Trail,
is
another
important
connection
of
adding
a
kind
of
third
connection
and
really
connecting
West
Salt
Lake
into
downtown.
This
is
a
bike
and
pedestrian
connector
and
part
of
a
tiger,
grant
that's
underway
and
anticipated
construction
by
2022,
enhancing
the
arena
and
Gateway.
We
don't
need
to
say
much
about
this.
The
they're
doing
extremely
well
right
now
we're
seeing
more
work
within
Gateway.
D
Today
we
are
very
much
in
supportive
of
that
and
the
idea
is
to
of
the
work
that
we're
doing
around
it
is
that
they
do
things
that
are
complementary
to
the
Gateway,
so
the
Gateway
is
part
of
a
whole
system
and
a
whole
neighborhood,
rather
than
a
one
individual
place,
the
500
West
connector
underneath
north
temple.
We
see
that
the
north
temple
station
is
a
station
that
really
deserves
a
front
door.
D
It's
it's
a
bit
of
a
it,
has
incredibly
a
high
ridership,
but
not
a
great
station
experience,
and
we
were
the
City
shared
with
us,
some
of
the
design,
the
CAD
work
to
connect,
500
West
underneath
north
temple
and
we're
a
major
supporter
of
that
of
giving
that
station
of
front
door.
But
funding
needs
to
be
secured
for
this
to
move
forward.
D
The
600
West
is
the
major
north-south
spine
from
in
the
in
the
center
of
the
neighborhood
infrastructure
varies
wildly
up
and
down
this
this
street
and
if,
as
you
can
see
in
the
diagram,
all
of
the
yellow
parcels
are,
there
are
specific
planning
areas
and
all
of
them
are
connected
to
six
six
West.
So
in
many
ways
this
is
kind
of
the
secret
kind
of
piece
to
this.
Of
making
this
work
is
improving,
600
West
for
for
everyone.
D
A
D
A
D
D
A
bicyclist
key
wayfinding
issues
would
be
important
and
then
the
third
item,
one
of
the
things
that
we'll
talk
about
a
moment,
was
that
we
feel
it
that
this
is
an
opportunity
for
a
bridge
over
right
into
Central
Station
area,
so
that
so
that,
if
you're
caught
by
this
train
here,
as
opposed
to
here,
you
can
still
make
it
across
as
a
bicyclist
or
a
pedestrian
as
well,
but
you're
absolutely
right.
This
is
a.
D
So
I'll
go
in
a
little
bit
more
detail
about
the
three
sites
that
we
were
asked
to
specific.
To
provide
specific
design
for
this.
Is
the
North
temple
station
site
it's
on
either
side
of
the
North
Temple
viaduct
and
again
they
all
address
on
six
West
it.
The
interesting
part
is
that
the
back
of
the
site
is
right
up
against
the
station,
so
in
many
cases
the
station
is
right
there,
even
though
you
can't
access
it
from
there.
D
We
heard
consider
amount
of
from
the
from
the
folks
that
we
were
interviewing,
that
that
open
space
is
an
issue,
so
we
made
that
as
a
part
of
all
of
the
designs.
This
is
about
over
500
units
and
500
square
feet
of
neighborhood
serving
retail.
This
is
a
view.
Looking
from
that
from
that
green
space,
the
rail
is
behind
you.
This
is
kind
of
looking
Northwest
the
1st
and
6th
neighborhood
sight.
This
is
again
a
kind
of
arts
focused
mixed
use
district.
D
This
would
require
a
collaboration
between
property
owners,
including
UTA
RDA,
and
some
of
the
current
owners.
There's
a
potential
program
of
up
to
500
multifamily
units,
350,000
square
feet
of
office,
40,000
square
feet
of
cultural
or
arts
uses
on
the
ground
level
of
these
and
five
thousand
square
feet
of
neighborhood
retail.
D
This
is
6th
here.I
15
at
the
north
side,
and
this
is
the
rail
tracks
behind
it,
with
a
fulsome
trail
connecting
through
at
the
north
side
and
what
this
might
look
like
from
an
aerial
perspective.
We're
trying
to
decrease
the
use
of
parking
and
trying
to
consider
that
there,
a
new
open
space
here
would
be
something
that
would
be
kind
of
the
living
room
for
this
particular
neighborhood.
Adding
a
green
space
in
a
park
space
would
be
whatever
Mendenhall
Eric.
D
D
D
D
This
site
has
a
lot
of
challenges,
particularly
in
the
geometry
of
the
site,
but
there
is
great
opportunity
at
the
same
time
in
many,
it
really
bookends
the
the
current
station
center
planning
to
the
east
and
a
real
opportunity
to
to
signal
that
this
is
the
major
the
major
moment
in
the
plan
and
to
really
capitalize
that
this
is
the
the
significant
station
for
for
for
Salt
Lake
City.
The
potential
program
is
approximately
250
multifamily
units
on
this
corner
building
in
the
station
itself.
D
D
It's
part
of
the
deal
a
lot
of
the
great
stations
when
you
look
historically
the
great
station,
both
designs,
but
also
stations
that
have
made
it
through
have
been
stations
that
have
done
that
they've
put
some
sort
of
office
building
or
some
sort
of
use.
On
top
of
it,
the
great
Pennsylvania
station
of
New,
York
City
was
torn
down
because
it
was
in
a
major
city
block
with
nothing.
On
top
of.
It
is
really
why
it
was
torn
down.
D
D
D
We
have
options
for
potential
office
space
over
here
instead
of
a
garage,
we
have
a
bridge
that
would
cut
as
well
and
the
in
the
in
the
in
the
in
those
are
kind
of
recommendations
here
and
recommendations
that
could
include
different
ways
to
handle
the
Greyhound
station.
The
rendering
here
this
is
looking
east,
so
we're
on
top
of
the
rail
below.
Here
you
can
see
the
heavy
rail.
This
is
kind
of
the.
D
What
would
be
the
base
of
the
the
station
kind
of
the
lobby
environment
you
ta
would
be
in
this
office
building,
maybe
the
top
five
floors,
the
in
the
state
and
the
traditions
of
many
of
the
stations,
the
Rio
Grande,
the
Union
Pacific
we
put
kind
of
the
signage
on
the
building
for
you
ta.
This
is
the
apartment
building
or
the
residential
building
that
would
be
associated
with
this
transit
oriented
development
and
be
something
that
you'd
see
against
the
sky
when
you're
looking
at
a
distance,
you
know
that
was
the
station
so
from
downtown.
D
You
could
see,
see
the
station
as
well
phasing
as
we
mentioned.
There
was
a
lot
of
initiatives
that
are
already
underway,
and
one
of
the
things
that
we
wanted
to
do
was
to
offer
an
opportunity
to
think
about
how
these
phasing
alternatives
are
important
in
to
helping
catalyze
these
for
development.
So
in
the
sequencing
in
the
0
to
3
years
we're
recommending
the
North
temple
station
move
forward.
There's
a
considerable
momentum
up
there,
Pioneer
Park
is
under
improvements
in
the
Rio
Grande
station.
D
Connector
would
be
important
to
getting
people
to
know
that
this
station
is
there
and
that
this
is
a
place
that
they
can
access
easier
than
they
can
today.
The
cont
I'll
color
green
color
is
in
the
3
to
5
years.
That
includes
6
West
and
the
first
and
six
phase,
one
the
Folsom,
Trail
and
so
forth,
and
then
a
lot
of
the
internal
part
of
Station
Center
and
the
corner
of
this.
D
A
A
C
G
E
D
Think
it's
a
good,
excellent
question
in
terms
of
that,
I
can't
speak
to
necessarily
that
the
timing
out
of
your
of
your
of
the
items
you
mentioned,
but
the
what
we
understand
and
for
what
we
learned
from
the
city
is
that
these
and
from
in
a
lot
of
our
discussions,
is
that
this
is
what's
what
was
feasible
and
then
in
the
in
in
in
a
reasonable
time
frame.
So
we
were
kind
of,
and
then
we
were
kind
of
thinking
about
what
are
ket
a
key
to
one.
D
E
D
B
F
Think
I
think
that,
given
the
the
board's
role
as
the
board
of
the
RDA
and
creating
new
project
areas,
it
would
it
might
make
sense
if
you
see
a
project,
that's
you
know
worthy
of
interest.
If
the
board
is
willing
to
consider
a
new
project
area
for
the
accomplishment
of
that
project,
you
might
want
to
say
something
now
and
then
the
staff
can
kind
of
fold
that
into
the
work
going
forward.
So
I.
D
A
I
B
Think
the
role
for
the
board
at
this
point
would
be
to
accept
the
plan.
The
idea
today
is
to
gather
any
comments
that
you
would
like
to
see
incorporate
it
into
the
final
plan
and
then
for
us,
as
an
agency
you're,
essentially
just
accepting
the
work
of
the
consultants
and
the
plan,
and
then
the
process
from
there
moving
forward
is
depending
on
what
the
final
version
is
of
the
plan.
B
We
will
then
start
having
discussions
with
the
planning
staff
in
terms
of
whether
any
of
those
recommendations
or
the
implementation
strategies
require
and/or
would
be
better
served
if
there
were
necessarily
changes
that
needed
to
be
made
to
either
the
zoning
or
the
current
master
plan.
If
there's
not
if
everything's
already
provided
for-
and
we
can
do
this
with
with
what's
in
place
and
the
initiatives
moving
forward,
then
our
role
with
this
plan
is
really
just
to
help
us
guide
development
of
the
agency's
properties
and
doing
that
in
a
way
that
coordinates
with
UTA.
Okay,.
D
Thank
you,
yeah
they're,
pretty
close
to
the
end
of
the
presentation,
so
just
a
just
as
a
summary,
the
development
potential
which
is
important
to
all
of
us,
the
residential
you
developed
up
to
for
1,400
units
in
terms
of
your
residential
goals.
This
is
almost
10%
of
the
entire
Salt
Lake
City
area
in
one
neighborhood.
Getting
people
living
here
is
gonna,
be
important
component
to
the
feeling
of
safety
and
the
kind
of
feeling
this
is
a
place
that's
lived
in,
which
was
some
of
the
feedback.
D
We
got
near
approximately
250,000
square
feet
of
office,
40,000
square
feet
of
cultural
uses
at
the
ground
level
in
about
15,000
square
feet
of
neighborhood,
serving
retail,
that's
meant
to
complement,
what's
going
on
the
Gateway
and
to
create
kind
of
one
neighborhood.
So
that's
really
the
final
slide.
So.
J
J
Appreciate
most
of
the
plan
I
understand,
most
of
it
I
think
the
connections
piece
is
still
a
little
vague
for
me
in
some
ways,
I
know
it's
very
expensive
to
do
elevated
crossing
the
railroad
tracks
in
second,
particularly
yeah
Folsom
Trail.
There
is
funded,
but
it's
only
funded
for
a
basic.
That's
right:
it's
not
the
full
trailer,
a.
H
J
And
it
still
runs
into
that
at
grade
crossing
there
on
six,
so
the
discussion
has
been
for
a
long
time
on
fourth
mmm-hmm
and
I
just
said
I
included
in
here
at
all,
because
that's
the
that's
the
elevated
crossing
from
the
west
side
of
Salt
Lake
to
the
east.
If
the
UTA
station
Center
is
a
major
transportation
hub,
are
there
any
thoughts
about
how
do
you
use
force
south
to
connect
the
hub
to
the
west
side
of
the
Salt
Lake
City,
because
right
now,
there's
a
there's,
a
walk:
there's:
a
pedestrian
walkway
on
4th!
D
J
D
D
J
Would
ask
maybe
I
know
this,
isn't
that
key
piece
of
this
plan,
but
this
is
the
Central
Station
for
the
city
and
a
lot
of
ways
and
if
we're
not
talking
at
least
talking
about
for
South
as
a
connection
point,
both
east
and
west
I
think
we've
missing
something
so
I
didn't
see
anything
on
here
about
that
connection
at
all.
In
the
near
term,
that's
probably
the
only
feasible
way
we're
gonna
connect
it
other
than
north
town.
J
D
Thing
and
I
we
would
welcome
to
comment
and
I
one
of
the
tough
things
about
the
bridges.
Is
that
generally,
they
tend
to
be
really
tough
in
inclement
conditions,
because
you
can't
cut
you
know
you
can't
tree
canopy
them.
You
can't,
you
know,
cover
them
or
you
know,
obviously,
that's
only
a
certain
number
of
months
a
year,
but
they
also
are
tough
to
feel
because
you,
you
don't
typically
have
like
the
street
parking
on
the
side
that
also
become
that
pedestrian
barrier.
D
So
we
would
put
you
know
that
maybe
the
second
south
and
the
Folsom
trail
and
as
maybe
important
at
grade
ones,
and
then
we
probably
put
the
north
temple
and
the
fourth
as
the
kind
of
key
you
know
of
bridge
bridge
connections,
so
I
would
I
think
budge.
You
brought
that
up.
So
we
would
absolutely
add
that
in.
E
B
B
E
E
Actually,
you
know
it's
on
the
median
parking
on
fifth
west
and
that
recent
investment
we
made
there
in
2017
with
Salt
Lake
City
Police
Department,
utilizing
part
of
that,
but
we
don't
have
to
get
into
that
today.
Thank
you
for
the
work
that
you
do.
It's
always
actually
I'm
always
very
pleased
with
the
work
that
your
group
does
and
the
different
iterations
around
the
city.
So
thanks
for
working
on
this
one
too,
thank
you
very
much.
A.
B
Goal
of
today
and
SUSE
can
jump
in
and
the
consultants
can't,
if
there's
different
direction,
that
they're
looking
for
is
just
getting
this
input.
I
think
the
comments
that
we
received
we'll
go
back
and
take
a
look
at
how
we
can
incorporate
those
into
the
plan.
We
will
then
prepare
a
final
draft
of
the
plan,
and
then
we
can
work
with
council
staff
and
the
board
in
terms
of
what
extent
they
either
want
to
approve
that,
as
a
plan
accept
the
recommendations.
What
that
really
needs
to
look
like
from
the
RTA
side.
B
We
will
then
have
the
conversation
with
the
planning
department
to
see
if
there's
anything
that
was
within
this
plan,
that
we
want
to
then
look
at
other
ways.
We
can
implement
it
within
the
city,
plans
and
recommendations
or
the
code,
and
then,
if
nothing
else,
we'll
take
a
look
at
it
and
have
it
on
available
as
we
look
to
dispose
of
our
property
and
work
with
UTA.
G
D
G
A
B
Okay,
the
board
may
remember
that
back
in
July
is
we
were
having
discussions
with
the
board
about
the
potential
of
a
creation
of
a
project
area
on
block
67.
The
board
asked
that
the
agency
undertake
a
facilitator
process
to
work
with
the
various
stakeholders.
The
point
of
that
process
was
to
essentially
determine
how
to
enhance
the
japantown
neighborhood
that
is
surrounding
that
block
and
specifically
how
to
compliment,
recognize
and
potentially
incorporate
that
as
part
of
the
project.
M
M
Those
interviews
is
that
we
really
needed
to
have
some
deeper
information
sharing
between
the
developer
and
the
japanese-american
community,
that
they
hadn't
had
an
opportunity
to
really
to
really
sit
down
and
talk
things
through,
and
so
we
we
had
anticipated.
We
would
just
jump
right
into
a
facilitated
workshop,
but
that
we
we
took
the
time
to
stop
and
say:
let's:
let's
do
this
a
little
differently
and
we
had
that
information
sharing
session
which
the
result
of
that
was
a
draft
of
this
document.
M
We
learned
a
lot
we
brainstormed
about
what
could
it
look
like
what
would
mitigate
some
of
these
areas
where,
where
there
was
some
conflict
and
we
came,
we
came
out
of
that
with
a
draft
and
I
have
to
say
before
I
move
on
that
the
stakeholders
that
we
have
involved
have
all
been
so
green.
The
developer,
everyone
in
the
community,
the
staff-
everybody-
was
really
really
willing
and
really
what
we
learned.
M
Even
though
we
went
in
thinking
that
there
was
some
really
difficult
things
to
move
past,
we
thought
you
know
there
was
going
to
be
some
some
sticking
points,
and
certainly
there
were
but
I
think
everyone
has
some
really
great
shared
interest,
including
this
board
and
the
administration
who
went
in
asking
us
to
do
the
right
thing,
which
I
really
I,
don't
always
get
that
direction,
and
I
really
really
appreciated.
That
and
I
think
it
did
have
a
lot
of
influence
on
the
outcomes
that
you'll
you'll
see
here.
M
But
what
we
also
learned
is,
which
was
really
interesting
as
we
went
forward.
Certainly,
you
know
there
was
a
short
timeline
Nisour
always
as
with
these
kind
of
things,
and
we
learned
as
we
went
forward,
that
there
have
been
many
processes
that
have
been
similar
to
this,
with
the
expansion
of
the
salt
palace
and
with
some
other
things,
and
so
it
really.
M
But
I
think
we
saw
that
as
a
challenge
to
really
raise
the
bar
and
do
even
better
and
and
push
this
just
a
little
bit
further,
so
that
we
can
get
some
some
meaningful
steps
forward
here
and
so
I'll
I'll
refer
you
to
the
slide
here,
and
so
when
we
went
into
the
the
bigger
facilitated
meeting,
we
had
kind
of
a
draft
and
we
had.
We
had
done
all
the
brainstorming,
I
guess,
and
then
we
sat
down
and
meeting
and
learned
a
lot
more
about
what
it
would
look
like.
M
M
What
we
also
learned
is
that
it's
going
to
take
more
than
just
a
couple
of
weeks
of
discussion
to
really
help
both
development
of
the
area
move
forward
well
and
in
the
way
that
Salt,
Lake
City,
wants
to
see
it,
go
and
see
the
Japantown
not
only
just
be
preserved,
but
to
help
it
to
thrive,
and
so
those
are
things
that
are
gonna
take
just
a
little
bit
more
time.
So
if
you
look
at
the
slide,
I'll
take
you
through
a
little
bit
of
that,
as
what
we
talked
about
is
kind
of
that
focus.
M
M
One
of
the
things
that
the
Richard
group
move
forward
is
to
connect
the
bear
parking
structure
and
there
the
parking
area,
that's
owned
by
the
temple
at
the
Buddhist
temple
and
the
Japanese
Church
of
Christ
and
to
foster
a
future
potential
connection
there.
And
so
there
has
been
some
meaningful
forward
motion
on
that
that
that's
been
taken
to
each
of
their
respective
boards
to
try
and
move
that
forward.
M
That's
kind
of
the
mitigating
side
of
things
and
then
that
focus
to
is
where
we
learned
a
lot
about
what
needs
to
happen
there
to
help
the
japanese-american
community,
really
better,
articulate
and
really
unpack
what
it
would
take
to
make
that
Japan
town
of
reality
in
the
short
term.
There's
a
recommendation
to
establish
a
working
group,
and
this
board
has
already
has
already
done
some
some
action
towards
making
that
a
reality
which
is
wonderful.
M
And
do
you
also
look
at
recognizing
Japantown
in
the
downtown
master
plan,
because
that's
something
that
was
in
an
issue
that
was
discussed
in
this
group
as
well
as
in
the
long
term,
to
have
that
working
group
be
responsible
for
really
articulating
further
what
it
would
take.
What
it
would
take
to
you
know,
for
example,
improve
the
road
or
you
know
you
have
more
of
a
Japan
town
presence,
and
what
was
exactly.
L
So,
as
Siobhan
said
to
kind
of
get
past
this
list
or
brainstorm
phase,
we
really
have
to
start
the
the
heavy
lifting
of
design
and
costing
and
implementation,
which
really
requires
a
collaborative
effort
from
all
the
stakeholders.
So
with
that,
the
stakeholders
are
right
at
the
idea
of
this
working
group
and
it's
a
really
important
step
because
empower
stakeholders
to
lead
the
vision
and
create
a
continued
space
for
collaboration,
which
is
really
important
because,
as
you
know,
with
visioning
and
implementation,
it's
a
very
fluid
process.
L
So
there's
a
continued
seat
at
the
table
to
make
sure
those
discussions
keep
happening
and
see
that
come
to
fruition.
As
far
as
the
format
it's
in
draft
phase,
but
our
next
step
would
be
to
hold
a
meeting
with
the
stakeholders
and
finalize
the
details.
They
would
include
the
logistics
how
the
group's
going
to
operate.
This
can
include
everything
from
seats.
You
know
at
the
Working
Group
a
timeline
and,
very
importantly,
checkpoints.
L
L
So
with
that,
if
the
board
agrees,
our
next
steps
would
be
to
work
with
stakeholders
to
finalize
what
the
working
group
look
like
looks
like
and
how
it
operates
to
work
with
the
working
group
to
hire
a
consultant.
This
lines
up
well
with
you
know
the
funds
that
were
put
aside,
so
they
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
designing
japantown
for
the
community
but
we're
designing
it
with
the
community.
L
So
that's
a
really
important
piece
of
the
consultant
working
with
the
working
group
and
then
also
the
board
would
recognize
Japantown
in
the
downtown
master
plan
or
we'd
work
with
with
that
process
and
the
Japanese
Church
of
Christ
in
Salt
Lake
Buddhist
temple.
Would
their
boards
would
continue
work
with
Ricci
group
on
an
approval
of
the
short-term
connectivity
items
that
Siobhan
mentioned
and
that
are
in
the
report?
And
then
at
this
point,
Siobhan's
contractors
facilitator
would
be
complete
unless
otherwise
directed
and
we'd
move
forward
with
this
process
is
need
an
update.
L
A
G
Just
cannot
say
the
amount
of
work
that
you
all
have
put
into.
This
has
been
incredible
and
I
know
it
wasn't
something
that
was
on
the
necessary.
Like
here's,
your
list
to
do
of
things.
It
was
more
of
we're,
gonna
throw
this
at
you
and
we
expect
you
to
do
a
lot
of
work
on
it
so
really
from
we've
talked
about
it.
G
From
our
perspective,
it's
just
been
such
a
unique
process
in
such
an
important
one
and
I
can't
I
can't
thank
all
of
you
enough
for
really
delving
in
and
taking
the
the
efforts
and
that
the
workload
to
do
this
for
us,
because
I
think
we're
really
moving
forward
in
a
positive
way
there.
So
that's
all
I
wanted
to
say
was
think
so
huge
shadow
thanks.
Thank
you.
Thank.
E
Please,
thank
you
I.
My
question
I
want
to
thank
you
again.
Amy
did
a
good
job
same
King,
but
you
mentioned
the
great
participation
by
all
the
stakeholders
involved
in
I'm
curious
about
that
continued
participation,
particularly
when
I
read
the
the
line
in
the
staff
report
that
the
development
can
move
forward
prior
to
the
entire
japantown
vision
being
completed
with
the
work
group
in
place
and
I'm
wondering
around
what
we
might
forfeit
by
allowing
the
development
to
move
ahead
before
we
really
know
what
we
need
from
the
visioning
process.
E
That's
the
section
I'm
looking
at
where
it
talks
about
creating
the
placemaking
and
the
ideas
that
are
are
probable
to
come
out,
which
may
include
things
like
street
lighting
and
other
enhancements
to
the
area,
and
that's
no
surprise
to
anybody
at
this
table
that
those
are
expensive
propositions
and
that
we
usually
involve
neighboring
property
owners.
Actually,
we
always
involve
neighboring
property
owners
with
those
kind
of
enhancements.
E
So
what
I'm
talking
appreciate
that
we
have
willing
stakeholders
right
now
in
the
I
wonder
about
the
willingness,
when
we
don't
tie
the
participation
component
in
a
financial
sense
to
the
outcome
that
I
think
we
all
are
very
committed
to
with
regard
to
the
Japanese
community
here
and
I.
Don't
I
think
that
the
intention
is
sincere
here,
but
history.
E
If
history
is
a
predictor
of
the
future,
we
need
to
be
quite
sure
that
we
can
guarantee
these
outcomes
happen
and
come
to
fruition,
because
we
haven't
in
the
past
as
a
city,
and
this
community
has
not
been
well
served
by
the
developments
surrounding
them.
I
don't
want
that
to
happen
again
and
and
I
think
we
can
talk
about
ways
to
do
that,
but
in
terms
of
moving
ahead
with
a
significant
there
are
several
steps.
E
I
understand
it
in
the
development
process,
and
this
isn't
the
last
time
that
the
Ricci
group
will
be
before
this
body
in
councilor
RDA
format.
But
I
want
to
know
about
that
and
I
think
it's
a
curious
recommendation
that
we
allow
the
development
to
move
ahead
before
we
know
what
we're
asking
for
well,
I.
M
Would
say
from
a
stakeholder
perspective,
there's
a
lot
of
technical
that
won't
Danny,
I'm
sure
from
a
stakeholders.
Perspective
I,
think
that
I
like
that
the
two
are
are
separated,
because
that
doesn't
mean
that
the
Japantown
ideas
don't
move
forward
if,
for
some
reason
the
development
sells
and
and
and
vice
versa-
that
that
that
the
two
can
can
have
independent
lives,
even
though
they
are
interdependent
in
a
lot
of
ways.
So,
from
my
perspective,
that
I
think
that
there's
benefit
to
be
had
there,
but
I
know
that.
L
One
piece
to
that
was
on
the
Ricci
group
had
a
lot
of
ideas
around
developing
the
Buddhist
temple
and
the
Japanese
Church
of
Christ
property,
but
they
weren't
ready
to
commit
to
that
to
that
extent,
so
that
referenced
in
a
lot
of
ways
setting
up
their
development
in
a
way
that
when
the
community
was
ready,
develop
their
land,
the
connectivity
was
there,
but
they
didn't
necessarily
wait
until
the
churches
were
ready
to
develop
airwing
because
it
could
be
pretty
far
out.
Okay,.
L
E
Regard
to
that,
that's
regarding
the
private
property
ownership
and
I'm
talking
about
the
public
right-of-way
improvements
that
are
more
I,
can't
imagine
that
the
visioning
process
would
contemplate
the
private
property
opportunities.
That's
not
really
the
role
of
the
city
or
something
I
could
see
that
we've
been
asking
for
funding
around,
but
talk
to
me
about
the
public
investment.
Okay,.
B
I'll
start
by
saying
your
comments
are
extremely
accurate
because
that's
exactly
kind
of
where
we
started
with
what
we
thought
the
goal
of
this
process
would
be
is
to
understand
exactly
what
we
would
need
to
do.
And/Or.
What
components
of
the
Ricci
group
development
would
need
to
be
done
to
address
the
concerns
of
the
japanese-american
community,
and
this
is
where
we
as
staff,
really
appreciate
the
fact
that
we
went
through
this
process,
because
what
we
learned
early
on
with
shavon
is
that's
not
the
end
goal
of
what
we're
trying
to
do.
B
Is
the
agency
to
make
sure
that
we're
doing
it
in
a
way
that's
fair
and
equitable
for
all
partners.
That's
why
we
started
this
process
and
I
think
we
owe
that
to
the
developer,
just
as
much
as
the
rest
of
the
stakeholders.
So
a
lot
of
that
burden
will
fall
on
us
as
the
agency
to
really
provide
that
plan
the
cost
and
lay
out
the
path
moving
forward
of.
If
we
want
to
do
this,
who
are
the
stakeholders
that
need
to
take
that
on?
How
do
we
pay
for
it?
B
And
then
what's
the
timeframe,
and
so
the
basis
for
that
comment
within
the
staff
report
is
understanding
that
the
Ritchie
group's
time
frame
is
probably
a
lot
faster
than
what
we
will
do
in
terms
of
develop
this
study
and
really
lay
out
the
process,
and
so
we
want
to
be
respectful
of
that
and
I
think
this
is
a
better
way
to
do
it
and
that's
again
going
back
to
the
study.
That's
how
we
got
to
this
point.
B
I
think
it's
a
much
better
process,
but
to
your
comment,
you're,
absolutely
right,
because
that's
what
we
all
want
to
make
sure
that,
as
we
do
any
participation
agreement
and
we
commit
public
funds
that
we're
doing
it
in
a
way
that
doesn't
miss
this
opportunity
that
we
make
sure
we're
incorporating
everything
we
want
to
do
as
part
of
this
project.
Thanks.
E
Danny
and
just
in
closing
I
appreciate
your
comments
about
equity
and
fairness.
I
think
it's
absolutely
appropriate
and
I
can't
help,
but
look
down
the
road
at
the
decisions
we're
going
to
have
to
make
as
a
body
regarding
15
million
dollars
of
our
city's
tax
increment.
That
was
decided
for
us
by
another
entity
with
regard
to
this
project.
So.
A
And
so
I
had
an
idea
that
you
know
we
could
consider
potentially
doing
a
ceremonial
resolution
of
sorts
where
we
as
a
body
make
make
clear
that
we
we
support
the
process
and
we
are
committed
to
finding
a
way
to
see
this
vision
through
and
in
some
way.
You
know
in
one
way
or
another
you
know
we
could.
We
could
do
that
today,
with
the
with
the
CIP
I.
Think,
staff
probably
wouldn't
be
able
to
pull
that
resolution
together
that
quickly,
but
we
could
look
at
maybe
doing
that
next
next
month
for
our
RDA
meeting.
A
H
I,
like
the
idea,
my
other
question
is
I
mean
there's
so
many
different
timelines
that
this
really
could
take
and
I
I
think
we
need
to
have
something
kind
of
laid
out.
So
we
understand
you
know
our
options
if
one,
if
we
decide
to
go
this
route.
Well,
it's
going
to
put
it.
You
know
it's
gonna
screw
it.
No
I,
don't
want
to
say
screw
up,
but
it's
going
through
the
permitting
process.
H
B
B
B
Arguably,
it's
a
process
that
we
really
should
just
follow
in
terms
of
recognizing
that
community
and
and
how
to
incorporate
that
with
what
the
city
is
doing,
as
well
as
the
improvements
that
could
be
done
independently
and
part
of
the
project,
and
so,
if
your
point,
we
certainly
can
set
up
what
the
different
options
are
in
the
time
frame.
But
ideally
this
process,
the
beauty
of
it
is.
B
H
A
M
We
did
talk
with
Vivid
and,
and
they
are
supportive
of
everything
that's
been
going
on.
Of
course,
they
are
interested
in
seeing
the
development
move
forward
that
are
also
supportive
of
of
japantown
and
I.
Think
that
the
county
was
an
active
participant
in
this
and
did
come
up
with
several
ideas
and
potential
funding
sources,
so
I
can
see
them
participating
in
real
ways.
Moving
forward,
certainly
I'm
not
in
a
position
to
commit
for
them,
but
just
in
watching
them
participate.
A
Anything
further
before
we
move
along
okay.
Thank
you
should
I
appreciate
your
work
on
this
things
Corinne.
Thank
you
very
much.
All
right
next
up
on
our
agenda
today
is
the
loan
request
for
55
West,
800,
South,
otherwise
known
as
the
Charlie.
We're
gonna,
try
and
move
this
one
along
in
15
minutes,
if
possible.
So
at
the
desk
I
know
we
have
Danny
and
Tammy
hunts
acre
as
well
as,
if
I'm,
not
mistaken,
I
see
the
property
developer
in
the
audience,
so
they
may
be
available
for
questions
as
well.
So
go
ahead.
B
I
Thank
you
so
very
briefly,
this,
as
was
teed
up
as
a
loaner
quest
from
CW.
The
Charlie
Partnership
was,
which
is
a
partnership
between
CW
urban
and
McKinley
partnership
for
a
two
million
three
hundred
and
thirty
five
thousand
dollar
loan
for
a
residential
project
located
at
55
West,
800
South
in
the
West
temple
Gateway
project
area.
The
project
will
consist
of
a
multi-family
condominium
project
with
90
units
ranging
from
studio,
one-bedroom
and
1
plus
bedroom.
I
It
will
be
the
adaptive
reuse
of
the
former
toffee
town
building
with
a
tower
built
to
the
south
connected
to
the
building.
The
tower
will
have
a
podium
with
72
parking
spaces
and
5
stories
above
the
units
will
be
priced
between
two
hundred
and
forty
five
thousand
and
four
hundred
and
forty
four
thousand.
The
project
is
estimated
to
cost
at
about
23
million
CW
urban
is
looking
to
break
ground
late
2018
that
could
slip
into
early
2019
with
a
15
month.
Construction
schedule
so
really
quickly
of
a
financial
overview
of
the
site.
I
The
senior
lender
is
coming
in
at
about
75%
of
the
project
costs
with
the
RDA
loan
at
10%
and
the
remainder
being
filled
with
developer.
Will
partnership
equity,
and
this
RDA
fund
request
really
is
needed
to
fill
a
financial
gap
that
has
been
created
by
challenges
acquiring
conventional
condominium
construction
funds.
The
market
is
very
hesitant
still
to
land
on
condominium
projects
and
when
they
do,
they
typically
lend
at
a
smaller
proportion
of
total
project
cost.
I
So
this
is
really
to
fill
a
gap
with
project
financing
and
the
applicant
has
maximized
the
amount
of
senior
financing
they
can
get
and
they're
putting
in
15
percent
equity.
A
few
renderings
of
the
project
will
actually
a
site
map
of
the
project
to
orient
you.
This
is,
as
I
said,
the
former
taffy
town
building
on
eight
south
and
55
west
in
the
West
temple
Gateway
project
area,
a
site
map
it's
hard
to
see,
but
the
lighter
cross-hatched
square,
that's
the
toffee
town
building
and
then
the
darker
square.
I
I
So
that's
just
through
construction
and
sell
of
the
units
and
it
will
be
sufficiently
collateralized
and
guaranteed
through
a
personal
guarantee
from
the
CEO
of
CW
urban,
with
the
project,
its
meeting
already
a
loan
program
policy
with
no
exceptions.
It's
also
providing
additional
public
benefits
to
the
neighborhood
adaptive
reuse.
It
will
preserve
the
building,
the
historical
building
typology
and
the
identity
and
unique
character
of
the
neighborhood.
It's
a
great
building
with
12-foot
ceilings
a
barrel
roof
inside
it
was
built
in
I've,
heard
two
different
years.
It's
either
1938
or
1940
also
provide
workforce
housing.
I
We
did
an
internal
analysis
and
the
majority
of
units
will
be
sold
at
between
two
hundred
and
forty
five
thousand
and
three
hundred
and
twenty
two,
which
is
ranging
between
90
and
a
hundred
and
twenty-five
percent
of
AMI,
and
it
will
also
provide
homeownership
in
a
neighborhood
that
has
a
high
concentration
of
rental
housing.
So
we'll
provide
some
diversity
in
homeownership
there
and,
as
Danny
said
I
believe.
The
development
team
is
behind
me,
headed
by
Darlene
Carter,
the
division
director
of
CW
urban,
and
she
has
some
of
our
team
members
with
her.
E
B
I
B
I
So,
even
with
a
15%
equity
contribution
from
the
development
team
or
partnership,
there's
still
a
financing
gap
where
they've
maximized
the
amount
they
can
get
from
a
bank
and
they're
putting
in
15
percent
of
their
own
money
essentially
and
there's
still
a
remaining
gap.
That's
what
the
RTA
would
fill.
Okay,
Thank,
You,
Danny.
A
Before
we
bring
up
the
developer,
if
we
decide
to,
can
you
talk
to
me
about
whether
or
not
a
loan
like
this,
which
I'm
supportive
of
by
the
way,
but
just
logistically
and
sort
of
high
level
it?
Would
this
expose
the
Redevelopment
Agency
to
any
sort
of
viability?
I
know
that
the
lending
market
for
a
condominium
development,
in
particular,
has
changed
in
recent
years
and
tightened
quite
a
bit,
and
so
I
wonder
and
I
also
realized
that
certain
courts
have
expanded
viability
issues
when
it
comes
to
defects
with
construction.
B
That's
a
tough
question,
that's
a
great
question
and
and
I
will
say
this
and
I
assume
katie
sitting
behind
me
and
ready
to
jump
up
if
I
say
something
or
she
has
anything
to
add.
I,
don't
believe
this
would
expose
the
agency
to
any
additional
liability
outside
of
just
normal
financing
position
on
a
project.
B
Usually
what
you
have
with
the
condominium
projects
and
the
liable
that
is
happening
is
between
the
HOA
and
the
contractor
itself
in
terms
of
future
lawsuits
regarding
the
quality
and
craftsmanship
of
the
project
and
and
going
back
and
trying
to
extend
those
warranties
that
they
provide
within
construction.
So
I
don't
see
this
as
exposing
us
to
anything
outside
of
our
normal
lending
criteria
and
risk
position.
I
should.
I
Also
mention
the
RDA
Finance
Committee
reviewed
this
loan
request
and
they
recommended
approval
of
the
terms
as
presented
in
your
packet
and
they
actually
looked
at
liability
as
an
issue
just
in
in
the
expected
profit
to
the
developer.
If
say,
the
market
changed
and
the
units
weren't
sold
at
a
level
that
the
developer
is
currently
projecting,
it
would
eat
into
the
developer's
profit,
but
the
Finance
Committee
felt
there
was
sufficient
cushion
there
that
the
RDA
would
be
sufficiently
covered
to
have
the
loan
repaid
great.

That's
a
good
question:
I
assume
that
that
would
be
something
that
the
developer
would
potentially
include
within
the
CCN
ours
or
the
HOA
documentation.
I.
Think
that's
a
good
question
for
the
developer.
If
they're
going
to
include
that
provision
within
that
to
prevent
that
from
happening
and
or
limit
it
or
provide
that
as
an
opportunity.
What.
B
Think
that
would
be
a
condition
of
our
loan
agreement
of
whether,
as
part
of
us
funding
and
continuing
that
they
have
the
obligation
to
pay
us
back,
then
that
obligation
comes
with
it
to
to
sell
the
units
and
basically
pay
us
off
with
the
sale
of
those.
If
the
developer
were
to
decide
during
construction
that
they
were
going
to
transfer
this
to
be
a
rental
project,
that
would
be
something
that
they
would
need
to
come
and
negotiate
with
us.
B
J
A
A
A
Right,
it's
been
moved
for
approval
by
board
vice
chair
fowler,
a
second
by
board
member
luke.
Any
discussion
on
this
item
all
in
favor
and
that
motion
carries
congratulations.
You're
welcome
all
right!
We're
gonna
move
along
to
item
number
five
on
our
agenda
this
afternoon,
which
is
that
the
cap
CIP
RDA
CIP.
A
H
Board
discussed
discussed
the
five
RDA
capital
projects
last
month
and
based
on
the
board's
discussion.
There
is
a
motion
sheet
in
your
packet
and
I'm
pulling
it
up
right
now.
It
includes
an
option
to
approve
the
RDA
capital
projects,
as
requested
with
the
change
that
the
RDA
board
discussed
of
the
taking
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
from
the
downtown
placemaking
incentive
program
and
instead
using
it
for
the
100
South
streetscape
improvements,
studies
related
to
Japan
town.
H
There
is
also
an
option
to
approve
some
of
the
projects,
with
the
exception
of
Station
Center
in
infrastructure
and
650
south
new
track
station
and
the
reason
those
are
listed
as
exceptions
is
the
board
had
several
questions
on
both
of
those
projects
at
the
October
briefing
and
the
questions
were
related
to
the
uncertainty
about
the
total
cost
for
each
of
the
projects,
as
well
as
coordination,
especially
with
UTA
on
the
new
track
station.
And
so,
if
there
are
additional
questions,
now
is
a
chance
to
ask
our
TA
staff.
E
E
We
have
just
finalized
two
project
areas
that
have
been
years
in
the
making
on
the
nine
line,
project
area
and
State
Street
project
area,
and
there
have
been
I
think
of
the
five
years.
I've
been
an
RDA
board.
Member
I've
heard
more
conversations
around
a
17th
south
potential
track,
stop
station,
that's
associated
with
the
Salt
Lake
Community
College
population
that
comes
in
from
all
over
the
valley
to
take
classes
there
at
1,700
South.
E
In
addition,
we
have
an
existing
project
area
abutting
that
so
anyway,
the
the
idea
of
a
650
South,
Main
Street,
light
rail
station.
That
is
really
at
the
behest
of
a
private
property
owner
or
developer.
I.
Don't
have
any
interest
in
this
and
a
budget
amendment
if
this
is
a
need
that
UTA
also
recognizes
and
that
UTA
plans
to
take
care
of
them.
Om
of
this
kind
of
a
station
I
understand
that
there's
major
congestion
issues
north
in
this
area
on
the
light
rail
line
that
it
is
another
reason
I
I,
don't
support
this
budget.
E
A
E
E
First
is
the
downtown
placemaking
incentive
program
at
two
hundred
forty-four
thousand
three
hundred
fifty
six
dollars?
Second,
is
first
south
streetscape
improvement
study
I
want
to
be
specific.
That
is,
this
is
between
second
west
and
third
west,
and
that
will
come
from
the
CBD
the
and
that's
from
the
placemaking
funding
which
I,
don't
it
doesn't
say
specifically
on
the
motion
sheet.
But
that's
our
intention.
Isn't
it?
Yes,.
A
E
The
third
is
the
north
temple
school
fund
at
thirty
one
thousand
eight
hundred
dollars.
The
fourth
is
three
hundred
west
streetscape
Phase,
two
at
four
hundred
thousand
seven
hundred
fifty-four
dollars
and
no
appropriation
for
Station
center
infrastructure
and
six
fifty
South
Main
Street
light
rail
station.
A
A
B
The
purpose
of
this
request
within
our
annual
budget
was
essentially
set
aside
the
funds,
given
that
this
was
the
last
year
for
the
West
temple
Gateway
project
area.
We
felt
that
this
would
be
a
project
that
we
may
want
to
set
aside
the
funds
and
explore
the
possibility
of
whether
that
station
was
warranted
and
or
whether
UTA
actually
wanted
to
incorporate
it.
So
we
as
staff,
have
no
problem
at
this
point
with
not
allocating
those
funds
for
the
specific
project.
B
However,
I
request
that
those
funds
sit
there
until
we
can
come
back
to
the
board,
with
information
after
we've
reached
out
to
UTA
after
we've
reached
out
to
some
of
the
owners
and
stakeholders
that
we've
heard
from
and
then
provide
the
information
at
that
time
of
whether
this
is
something
that
could
fit
within
the
the
light
rail
plan
and
or
if
it's
something
that
we
want
to
make
a
priority
decision
on
this
station
over
another.
So
do.
B
Center
in
terms
of
coming
back
with
the
budget
amendment
and
requesting
that
the
funds
for
the
station
center
infrastructure
be
allocated,
this
request
was
essentially
just
an
allocation
of
a
portion
of
the
depot
district
annual
budget
in
anticipation
of
not
necessarily
having
those
final
costs.
Yet
we
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
had
the
opportunity
to
have
enough
fun
set
aside
and
again,
we
would
come
back
to
the
board
with
what
that
final
cost
is
and
ask
the
board
at
that
time
to
allocate
those
funds.
B
E
Anybody
like
me
to
amend
my
motion
so
that
we
take
the
400,000
from
the
station
Center
infrastructure
project
proposal
in
the
550
8,000
from
the
Main
Street
Light
Rail
Station,
which
totals
958
thousand
and
change
and
divide
that
into
two
B
seed
money
for
the
nine
line
and
State
Street
project
areas.
Or
do
we
want
to
have
that
conversation
later?
A
B
H
It
but
I
think
I.
Think
one
of
the
wrinkles
in
this
particular
instance
is
that
the
State
Street
project
area
was
extended
to
overlap
with
the
West
temple
Gateway
project
area
and
I'm
unclear
on
what
flexibility
might
exist
once
that
project
area
has
expired,
since
there
is
the
overlap,
if
some
of
those
tax
increment
funds
could
also
be
used
in
the
new
project
area
of
State
Street.
E
E
A
A
B
Can
set
the
stage
we've
provided
for
her
her
comments
after
Tammy
speaks
and
just
to
set
the
stage
in
terms
of
this
item.
This
is
a
follow
up
to
previous
board
discussions,
as
the
agency
has
worked
towards
adopting
a
housing
allocation
funding
policy,
and
this
is
the
the
request
from
the
board.
As
we
came
before
you
back
in
May,
in
terms
of
trying
to
understand
the
different
roles
and
responsibilities
of
our
da
in
hand,
the
projects
and
programs
that
we
have,
as
well
as
the
funding
sources
that
are
provided
for
those.
I
Danny,
yes,
the
ultimate
goal
of
what
we're
doing
here
is
to
draft
an
RDA
housing
funding
allocation
actually,
as
motioned
by
the
board.
Last
December,
you
asked
us
to
come
back
with
a
policy
and
in
carrying
out
that
process,
we've
provided
a
briefing
to
you
on
statutory
housing
requirements
and
past
practice.
So
this
is
a
follow
up
to
that.
To
that
discussion
that
talks
about
coordination
between
the
RDA
and
hand
and
then
the
next
step
will
be
to
come
back
with
an
actual
draft
of
the
policy.
I
So
in
your
memo
we
have
broken
down
kind
of
hand,
focus
areas
and
RDA
focused
areas,
hands
areas
range
from
citywide
housing
plan
and
policy
development
to
program
activities
to
developing
actual
projects.
They
their
focus
areas,
in
a
nutshell,
are
the
HUD
programs,
the
US
Department
of
Urban
housing,
an
urban
development,
so
they
administer
CDBG
home,
ESG
and
HOPWA.
They
expand
homeownership
opportunities
through
mortgage
financing
and
the
Community
Land
Trust.
I
They
provide
critical
improvements
to
homeowners
of
existing
housing,
low
and
moderate
income,
honimaru
moaners
through
home
repair
programs
and
obviously
gap
financing
through
the
Housing
Trust
Fund.
In
addition,
they
utilize
city-owned
property,
disposing
that
to
promote
the
city's
housing
goals,
including
affordable
housing.
So
hands
programs
really
range
from
service
delivery
and
working
with
partnership
organizations
to
working
with
homeowners
to
working
with
development
partners,
whereas
the
RDAs
focus
area
is
really
on
development
projects
on
real
estate
transactions
and
our
focus
areas
are
a
little
bit
different.
I
I
We
implement
mixed
income,
housing
and
project
areas
to
provide
economic
diversity
of
housing
to
make
sure
there's
a
mix
in
neighborhoods
in
certain
neighborhoods
like
West,
Capitol
Hill
will
foster
historic
preservation
and
stabilization
of
the
existing
housing
stock
and
will
support
additional
housing
stock
just
to
get
increased
population
and
vitality
within
our
project
areas.
One
of
our
other
priorities
is
to
ensure
the
growth
of
the
tax
base
and
generation
of
additional
tax
increment
in
project
areas,
so
that
not
only
keeps
our
funds
sustainable,
but
it
spins
off
additional,
affordable
housing
funds.
I
We
support
the
needs
and
objectives
of
our
taxing
entity
partners.
In
fact,
we
recently
met
with
the
Salt
Lake
City
School
District
during
for
our
project
area
creation
activities,
and
they
expressed
a
need
for
workforce
housing
within
project
areas
to
support
housing
for
teachers
and
their
staff,
and
also
family
housing
for
students.
So
we
look
at
taxing
and
partners
priorities
and
then
under
the
umbrella
of
economic
development.
I
We
also
look
at
furthering
the
city's
house
economic
development
goals
through
housing
and,
of
course,
we
are
also
able
to
spend
housing
funds
outside
of
project
areas
to
support
citywide
housing
goals
and
implementation
of
growing
SLC.
So,
while
our
programs
are
very
different
and
our
priorities
are
very
different,
there
are
areas
where
our
priorities
and
programs
overlap,
and
this
is
primarily
seen
in
gap
financing
provided
through
the
Housing
Trust
Fund,
the
RDAs
loan
program,
and
we
also
have
the
NOFA
and
the
renovation
pilot
program.
I
I
The
director
of
hands
sits
on
the
RDAs
seven-member,
Finance
Committee,
so
reviewing
loan
requests
and
tax
increment
melissa's
they're
participating
in
those
conversations,
and
then
a
committee
participation
we've
been
participating
in
each
other's
selection
committees.
Our
ta
staff
sits
on
the
fleet,
block
Development
Committee
hand.
Staff
has
sat
on
like
the
selection
committee
for
the
overnight
or
site
and
255
State
Street,
and
likewise
our
ta
staff
has
participated
in
selection
committees.
That
hand
has
run
like
the
Barnes
Bank
redevelopment,
so
there
has
been
a
lot
of
coordination
between
the
two
departments.
I
We
also
the
RTA
when
we
look
to
dispose
of
a
property
before
we
market
that
property.
We
evaluate
the
property
to
see
if
the
inclusion
of
affordable
housing
is
appropriate
for
that
site
and
part
of
that
process
is
reaching
out
to
hand
to
get
their
opinion
on
the
particular
site
and
if
housing
is
deemed
to
be
appropriate
for
that
site,
for
example,
the
overnighter
and
State
Street
properties.
We
work
with
hand
to
dial
in
the
level
of
affordability
and
the
ami
mix
that
were
requesting
through
the
disposition
process.
I
So
there's
been
quite
a
bit
of
collaboration
between
our
two
organizations.
Recent
projects
we've
actually
closely
worked
on
is
the
exchange
the
Barnes
bakery
development,
another
project
that
has
been
open
for
a
while
now
was
ninth
east
lofts.
That
was
an
RTA
led
project
but
hand
participated
through
a
loan
through
the
housing
trust
fund.
I
So
in
your
packet
there's
a
lot
of
words
on
it
and
I
think
you
have
a
copy-
that's,
hopefully
a
little
bit
easier
to
read,
but
we
have
provided
a
housing
programs
and
tools
matrix
that
provides
an
overview
of
all
of
the
housing
programs
that
the
RTA
in
hand
has
there's
quite
a
few.
Most
of
them
are
hands.
The
RTA
has
four
so
I'll
go
through
rdas
four
and
then
turn
it
over
to
Melissa.
I
So
we
have
the
RTA
loan
program
that
we
just
funded
the
Charlie
out
of
so
that
can
be
used
for
affordable
housing,
market
rate,
housing,
commercial
development,
all
sorts
of
different
development
projects.
So
we
don't
really
have
an
ami
max
with
the
RTA
loan
program,
but
if
the
project
has
60%
ami
in
below
there's
an
interest
rate
reduction,
so
there's
an
incentive
there.
We
have
the
tax
increment
reimbursement
program,
so
that's
committing
future
tax
increment
to
the
project.
I
We've
funded,
affordable
housing
projects
through
that
one
of
the
examples
of
that
is
art
space
Commons
in
the
grainery
district.
There's
an
annual
reimbursement
going
out
to
that
project,
property
acquisition
and
disposition.
Recent
examples
again:
the
overnighter
and
255
State
Street,
so
we'll
acquire
property
for
the
purpose
of
disposing
for
affordable
housing.
And
then,
as
you
all
are
aware,
we
had
the
10
million
dollar
notice
of
funding
availability
for
affordable
housing.
I
We've
committed
5.5
million
of
that,
and
we
have
now
released
the
4.5
million
dollar
NOFA
for
areas
of
opportunity
and
that
program
really
the
policies
for
that
one:
we're
tailored
to
incentivize
more
deeply,
affordable
housing,
lower
a.m.
eyes
through
the
NOFA
and
I
will
turn
it
over
to
Melissa.
To
talk
about
Hounds
programs,
hi.
K
So
of
course,
you
have
the
housing
trust
fund
that
is
traditionally
a
gap.
Financing,
but
I
would
say
in
a
different
way
than
the
RDA
funds
is
it's
it's
generally
viewed
as
a
subsidy
oftentimes.
It's
soft
loans
are
very
low
interest
rate
for
some
of
our
permanent
supportive
housing.
It's
no
interest
rate
and
sometimes
on
those
we
don't
anticipate
getting
paid
back,
although
we
do
formal
notes
and
Loan
agreements,
so
that
tends
to
be
the
purpose
because
we
are
targeting
you
know
at
minimum,
60%
ami
and
below
the
renovation
pilot
program.
K
K
The
Community
Land
Trust
is
both.
We
use
federal
funds,
but
then
also,
as
you
know,
we
recently
allocated
sales
tax
dollars
to
the
Community
Land
Trust.
So
that's
where
you'll
kind
of
see
a
convergence
of
different
funding
sources
and
then,
of
course,
all
of
the
sales
tax
dollars
that
are
going
to
be
and
are
being
implemented
at
this
time
for
new
programs
is
obviously
very
different.
K
We
really
look
for
gaps
in
our
federal
funding
and
where
we
could
see
those
dollars
most
leveraged,
so
I'm
happy
to
take
questions
on
any
of
the
programs,
but
I
thought
I
would
focus
on
ones
that
weren't
federally
funded.
As
this
body
knows,
those
are
very
highly
regulated
and
determined
that
policy
is
sort
of
written
for
us.
G
Think
there's
some
going
to
be
some
interesting
policy
questions
coming
up
as
we
we
start
to
look
into
that
a
little
bit.
So
we
kind
of
wanted
to
do.
We
had
talked
about
it
yesterday,
our
chair,
Vice
Chair,
meeting
of
just
this
was
sort
of
a
brief
overview
so
that
we
as
board
members,
could
start
thinking
about
some
of
those
policy.
Discussions
and
questions
that
I
think
will
be
coming
up
and
that
that
we've
talked
about.
G
But
so
that
was
more
just
a
statement
than
a
question
and
sort
of
I
guess
a
heads
up
more
than
anything
and
then
the
other
thing
I
wanted
to
say
is
Tammy
I
love
your
chart
and
I
appreciate.
All
of
the
work
that
you
put
into
this
I
was
actually
just
like
fantasizing
about
it
last
night,
because
I
was
thinking
about
all
of
this.
It's
so
just
like
it's
stuck
in
my
brain
and
I.
You've
really
done
outdid
yourself
on
all
the
work
on
this.
So
thank
you
for
pulling
all
of
this
together
for
us.
G
E
You
I
and
in
anticipation
of
broader
discussions,
I
think
that
I
would
like
to
have
a
discussion
about
where
there
is
some
overlap
in
the
functions
of
RDA
financing
and
hand
finance,
and
particularly
around
gap
financing,
and
whether
or
not
we
should
differentiate
those
respective
funding
pools
through
policy
at
the
RDA
level.
Perhaps
if
it
or
hand-
and
we
can
have
that
discussion,
yeah.
I
At
a
high
level,
I
guess
I
would
say
there
is
overlap
in
that
they
both
provide
gap
financing,
but
RDA
loan
program
policies
really
drafted,
not
it's
not
as
friendly
to
deeply
affordable
housing
projects
as
Melissa
spoke,
usually
affordable.
Housing
projects
was
very
low.
Am
eyes
need
like
a
cash
flow
loan,
very
low
interest
rate
or
no
interest
rate
deeply
subsidized
loan,
whereas
RDA
loan
program
policy,
we
have
a
base
interest
rate
and
we
have
interest
rate
reductions,
but
by
standard
policy
you
can't
get
below
the
US
Treasury
yield.
I
However,
we
have
funded
affordable
housing
projects
through
the
RDA
loan
program,
but
it
takes
exceptions.
You
approving
exceptions
to
the
standard,
already
a
loan
program
policy,
so
our
da1
program
can
do
affordable
housing
loans,
but
we
target
market
rate
commercial,
all
sorts
of
different
types
of
loans,
whereas
the
niche
for
affordable
housing
loans
really
is
more.
The
Housing
Trust
Fund
and.
K
E
Can
you
just
give
me
a
snippet
or
you
could
tell
me
we
can
address
this
next
time
of
how
those
those
board
conversations
either
intersect
or
don't
or
where
there
might
be
some
potential
for
cross-pollination
when
a
project
maybe
fits
better
with,
and
hopefully
it
doesn't
get
to
the
point
that
it's
out
there,
the
Advisory
Committee
in
the
wrong
place.
But
did
your
process
uncover
any
opportunities
there?
Yeah.
I
I
think,
with
the
increased
collaboration
between
our
groups,
there's
more
dialogue
on
what
funding
source
or
what
application
process
would
better
suit
the
project,
for
example,
when
it
became
apparent
that
the
exchange
needed
additional
gap
financing
than
what
the
RDA
board
approved
through
the
21
million.
You
had
approved
1.4
million
pending
an
application
process,
but
it
was
apparent
that
the
gap
was
more
like
3
million.
I
So
at
one
time
they
thought
about
the
housing
trust
fund,
but
we
thought
well
that's
kind
of
silly,
because
then
they'd
have
to
carry
out
two
different
application
process
he's
two
different
loan
documents,
so
they
came
to
the
RDA
for
the
additional
gap.
So
there
is
more
dialogue
between
us
and
in
helping
our
applicants
and
supporting
the
project.
I
appreciate.
E
That
but
I
think
that
our
job
at
this
desk
is
to
ensure
that
when
Tammy
and
Melissa
and
Danny
are
gone,
that
there's
something
in
policy
that
ensures
we're
being
the
most
efficient
and
collaborative
to
do
the
best
with
the
taxpayer
dollars,
and
so
maybe
at
the
next
conversation
we
can
talk
more
about
how
to
solidify
those
improvements
that
have
come
from
this
process.
That
right
now
are
working
with
you
as
individuals,
but
in
the
future,
when,
when
different
people
are
in
different
positions,
we
want
to
make
sure
those
efficiencies
are.
Are
there
right
may.
K
I
just
add
for
the
Housing
Trust
Fund,
it's
it's
largely
driven
by
the
ordinance,
the
Housing
Trust
Fund
ordinance,
which
lays
out
our
ami
is
etc,
and
one
of
the
things
that
we've
talked
about
and
housing
any
broad
development
for
some
time,
as
does
that
need
to
be
resurfaced
and
relooked
at
so.
We
would
certainly
take
the
opportunity
to
work
based
on
direction
that
you
might
have
with
some
updates.
K
For
example,
it
allows
for
some
single-family
home
financing-
that's
never
used
because
it
doesn't
make
a
lot
of
sense
to
go
through
our
process,
for
you
know,
$20,000
or
something
like
that.
So
I
think
it's
for
us
from
our
perspective
that
has
our
primary
guiding
document
and
then
layering
on
growing
SLC
and
sort
of
the
priorities
that
the
City
Council
has
set
out
for
funding.
But
certainly
would
welcome
continued
a
conversation
about
that.
Thank.
K
Process
in
practice,
I,
don't
think
it's
for
housing,
a
Neighborhood
Development.
We
don't
have
a
specific.
So
first
of
all,
the
housing
trust
fund
does
not
have
a
representative
from
the
RTA
right.
That's
a
full
constituent,
LED
board
for
our
internal
committees.
It's
for
housing,
a
neighborhood
development
has
been
practice.
J
Thing
from
my
perspective
and
echo
Inlet
council
person,
Mendenhall
said
it
would
be
helpful
to
maybe
think
through
that
process
a
little
bit
I
think
as
effective
as
anything
might
be.
It's
having
each
other
on
those
knees.
Talking
to
each
other
and
saying
look
I
know
we're
talking
about
here.
I
know
what
you're
talking
about.
H
H
H
F
Just
based
on
some
past
councils
that
have
asked
to
track
metrics
I
think
that
one
is
that
they
talked
about
the
people
and
tracking
the
people,
and
you
know
what
happened
to
the
people.
But
actually
previous
councils
were
interested
in
the
cash
return
because
of
the
revolving
nature
of
it
right
and
at
a
certain
point,
if
you
don't
have
any
cash
return,
you
lose.
F
I
A
That
answer
your
question
for
now:
okay,
great
so,
can
we
talk
about
housing,
money
allocation
from
the
Redevelopment
Agency?
It's
been
a
historic
practice
that
we
set
aside.
10%
I
believe
that
the
the
board
at
one
point,
did
request
to
have
a
more
formal
conversation
so
that
we
could
get
this
practice
codified.
Can
you
talk
to
me
about
this
is
question
for
RTA?
Can
you
talk
to
me
about
where
that
policy
conversation
is
in
your
preparation
and
when
we
might
be
able
to
have
that
formal
dialogue
having.
B
To
you
in
May,
this
was
one
of
the
speaking
points
at
that
time
that
you
wanted
to
understand
how
the
RDA
enhance
roles,
kind
of
intersected,
coordinated
and
so
prior
to
deciding
on
that
policy.
We
came
back
with
this
information,
this
discussion
and
these
points
will
then
be
taken,
and
our
next
step
would
be
to
come
back
with
that
housing
allocation
funding
policy
that
incorporates
any
comments
or
direction
that
we
receive
as
part
of
this
conversation.
H
A
F
I
think,
in
the
spirit
of
that
this
is
maybe
the
first
of
many
conversations
I
think
the
first
step
was
sort
of
establishing
the
baseline
of
what
we
have,
because
we
didn't
have
it
all
in
one
place
and
it's
nice
to
have
it
all
in
one
place
now,
and
so
maybe
now
that
board
members
have
received
all
the
information,
the
next
conversation
can
be
more
focused
on
individual
feedback,
about
areas
that
you
want
to
see.
Enhanced
or
areas
that,
like
the
single-family
home
program,
might
not
be
a
focus
of
the
city
anymore.
F
Based
on
you
know,
progress
I,
think
that
would
be
hugely
informed
by
some
data
about
the
previous
five
years
of
activity
and
what
what
programs
are
are
more
successful
and
from
different
metrics
right,
there's
different
ways
to
define
success.
So
maybe
that's
up
to
you
guys
too,
and
then
maybe
when
we
get
that
information,
we
can
schedule
the
next
conversation
and
and.
A
That
might
be
helpful
for
us
to
maybe
generate
more
pointed
questions
on
our
policy.
Conversation
down
the
road
and
I
would
also
encourage
other
board
members,
maybe
to
come
up
with
some
thoughts
in
the
interim
on
that
as
well.
Anybody
else
would
you
like
to
speak
to
policy
questions
on
this
or
something
else
just.
J
A
I
To
clarify
each
project
area?
Well,
there's
the
requirement
varies.
It
depends
on
the
statute
that
was
in
place
the
year
the
project
area
was
adopted,
so
our
new
State
Street
and
nine
line
project
area,
the
requirements,
10%
gateway,
north
temple
and
depot-
is
20%
and
then
CBD,
there's
actually
no
requirement,
but
the
RDA
board
has
traditionally
allocated
a
minimum
of
10%
from
each
project
area.
A
H
We
also
have
the
this
discussion
of
a
policy
discussion
on
money
coming
towards
us
for
the
northwest
quadrant
the
10%
for
housing.
On
that.
So
that's
another
thing
that
we
need
to
discuss
is
I
mean
it
really
is
coming
from
an
RDA
area
right.
So
we
need
to
put
that
on
the
agenda
for
a
discussion
as
well
and
actually
have
some
sort
of
foresight
to
see.
What
are
we
looking
at
in
terms
of
money
that
we
could
we
could
be
receiving
I.
A
Think
that's
a
really
good
point
because
we
almost
didn't
have
that
10%
from
the
Northwest
quad
inland
port
area,
so
I
think
that
that's
a
success
for
the
City
Council
in
the
RDA
board
to
really
determine
how
that
is
spent
going
forward,
because
in
the
next
couple
decades
that
could
be
a
hundred
million
dollars
or
more
so
that's
sizeable
I
agree.
So
that's
definitely
a
point
of
action
going
forward
board
member
fowler.
Do
you
have
any
questions
I
just.
G
I
think
Jen
is
absolutely
right
that
this
I
appreciate
this
sort
of
high
level
yeah.
This
is
going
to
be
on
our
radar
I
think
quite
a
bit
and
and
councilmember
Rogers
bringing
up
the
10%
out
of
the
northwest,
quadrant
I
think
it
will
also
be
an
interesting
discussion
and
something
we
maybe
you
should
think
about
as
board
members
of
what
this
policy
we'll
look
like
as
it
relates
to
what
we've
dedicated
to
with
sales
tax
revenue
to
affordable
housing
and
I.
G
Think
that
those
two
policies
I
will
need
to
take
kind
of
a
little
bit
bigger.
Look
at
those
two
things
so
I,
just
it's
been
on
in
my
head
about
how
those
two
will
relate
together
and
maybe
something
as
we
continue
to
move
forward
with
these
discussions.
We
can
all
kind
of
think
about
and
again
that's
another
heads
up
to
all
of
you.
But
this
is
what
I've
been
thinking
about
that.
A
A
B
That
that
contract
is
close
to
being
fully
executed
and
in
place,
I
think
there
was
a
question
in
our
meeting
yesterday
in
terms
of
the
costs
and
I
wanted
to
clarify
that
that
the
original
allocation
of
2.2
million-
that
includes
two
million
dollars
for
the
contract
itself,
and
then
the
balance
of
funds
are
available
as
a
contingency
and
if
they're
not
used
as
a
contingency.
We
have
an
agreement
in
place
to
utilize
those
on
the
plaza
in
support
of
the
art,
and
that
can
be
everything
from
additional
art,
signage
placemaking
whatever.
So
we.
A
B
A
B
B
We
understand
some
by
personal
experience,
others
by
rumor
and
stories
that
it
may
get
a
little
chilly
up
on
the
hill,
sometimes
so
leave
that
to
your
own
personal
interpretation,
but
we
wanted
to
give
you
at
least
a
small
gesture
of
our
appreciation
for
your
involvement,
not
only
on
the
City
Council
but
the
RDA
board
and
as
our
chair.
So
thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank.
A
G
Obviously
this
was
my
first
year
on
the
council
and
certainly
my
first
year
as
a
RDA
board
member,
let
alone
in
leadership
with
it
all,
and
you
have
been
an
amazing
mentor
and
guide
and
a
wealth
of
knowledge
as
we
have,
and
so
incredibly
kind
and
sincere
and
generous
every
time.
I
ask
some
dumb
question.
You
never
make.
G
It
seem
like
a
dumb
question
and
give
the
most
positive
and,
like
I
said
sincere
and
genuine
answer
and
I
cannot
tell
you
how
much
I've
appreciated
that
and
I've
appreciated
our
friendship
and
and
growing
to
know
you
and
getting
to
work
on
these
projects
with
you
and
for
everyone
out
there.
Some
of
the
things
that
Derek
has
been
able
to
do
as
our
TA
chair
has
helped
to
finalize
and
adopt
three
different
community
reinvestment
areas,
the
State
Street,
the
nine
line
and
the
northwest
quadrant
we.
G
So
you
should
certainly
be
incredibly
proud
of
that,
and
obviously
the
the
huge
thing
that
the
council
did
before
we
knew
council
members
came
on
was
allocating
that
very
large
chunk
of
money
to
affordable
housing
really
pushing
our
goals
to
create
a
better
and
more
welcoming
city
to
everyone,
so
that
we
have
everyone
stay
and
enjoy
the
city
that
we
all
love.
So
much.
G
You've
helped
to
really
push
those
those
goals
forward
and
I
have
no
doubt
in
my
mind
that
you
will
do
just
the
same
up
on
the
hill
as
much
as
humanly
possible
as
a
Democrat
can
do
you
move
forward
and
build
bridges
and
work
very
hard,
not
only
for
our
city
but
for
our
state.
So
congratulations
to
you
and
thank
you
so
very
much
for
everything.
You've
taught
me
thank.
