See joint Staff Report dated March 17, 1998 from the Community Development and Public Utilities
Department which recommended approval of the subject agreement.
Agency/Council Member Tait stated that his firm has done some work for one of the parties on Item A20.
and also on Item B1. He will, therefore, be abstaining on both of these items. (Tait temporarily left the
Council Chamber - 5:42 P.M.).
Lisa Stipkovich, Executive Director of Community Development briefed the staff report which explained
the proposal and the recommendation.
Mrs. Stipkovich then answered questions posed by Chairman/Mayor Daly relative to the time frames for
submission of plans by the developer. She feels they are reasonable and also clarified that, although
potential uses for the property were discussed, they do not have actual signed agreements. There would
be commercial uses, something serving the neighborhood, probably retail similar to that in the Savi
Ranch area.
Agency/Council Member McCracken noted that the site is physically depressed. She asked if the
company will be doing landfill in order to make it a site that is not below the level of the river.
Mrs. Stipkovich answered, yes. One of the problems with the site is the requirement for significant
landfill. They will be required to do that and meet all engineering requirements. They will be required to
show the Agency/Council the final site plan and to obtain approval of that plan.
Chairman/Mayor Daly opened the Public Hearing and asked to hear from anyone who wished to speak;
there being no response, he closed the Public Hearing.
