HomeMy WebLinkAbout181210-WS_Page_2• The composition of the Housing Tools and Strategies working group was admittedly lacking
in representation by the rental community.
• Concern expressed that there was no minority report provided.
• Clarification requested about whether the working group was addressing issues associated
with affordable housing or subsidized housing.
• Goal of work is to identify what the City can do to increase the supply of affordable housing;
criterion used to assess each strategy should be how much it moves the dial to achieve this
goal.
• Further analysis requested that would add metrics to show the effects of each strategy.
• Expectation by work group participants that any differences of opinion would be reflected
in report and that those opposing a recommendation would receive follow-up from staff.
• Unclear in report which items were being tacitly approved by council and which items
would require more discussion.
• Important to have a review after two years of whether the CET funds and other implemented
strategies are achieving the goals they are intended to address.
• Validity of study questioned, based on the composition of the work group members and the
inadequate timeline.
• Council not ready to act on recommendations; more analysis needed to develop better
strategies.
• Suggestion made to more clearly outline those strategies that are administrative in nature
and require no more analysis.
The meeting adjourned at 7:06 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
