TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Sharon Wood, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: Extension of Term of Affordable Housing Task Force
Recommendation
Adopt Resolution No. 2002- , extending the term of the Affordable Housing Task
Force for one year.
Discussion
The City Council adopted Resolution No. 2000 -27, establishing the Affordable Housing
Task Force, on March 14, 2000. The Resolution provided for a term of one year, which
was extended through March 2002 by the adoption of Resolution No. 2001 -9. Current
members of the Task Force are Mayor Ridgeway, Mayor Pro Tern Bromberg and Council
Member O'Neil.
The Task Force has been very involved in discussions with The Irvine Company and The
Related Companies regarding the development of a senior affordable housing project on
the Lower Bayview Landing site. Staff believes continuing participation of the Task
Force will be instrumental in the successful implementation of this project. In addition,
the City Council recently declined proposals the City received in response to our request
for proposals for another project that would use the City's affordable housing in -lieu
fund. The Task Force is needed to develop another strategy for use of this fund.
Therefore, staff recommends extending the term of the Affordable Housing Task Force
for another year.
