Community Development Commission of the City of Rohnert Park Minutes - May 9, 1995
( 2 )
Commission Member Reilly asked for clarification regarding Innovative Housing
and what information City Manager Netter needs for this meeting. City Manager
Netter indicated he was meeting with representatives from Innovative Housing to
evaluate their administrative budget with respect to other agency fair share
contributions and services provided.
Commission Member Reilly asked if these items were going to be in a staff report
under other possible uses.
City Manager Netter stated Commission Member Reilly could move those items
up and they can become approved budget items.
Commission Member Reilly stated he would like to see Valley Village Mobile
Home Park budgeted in. He stated he would like to vote on these items in the
order that the Commission originally voted on them and they should be
prioritized.
PUBLIC COMMENTS: Chairman Eck opened the meeting to receive public comments on this item.
Joan Picard, Representing North American Mortgage Company, stated she would like to know who
scheduled May 23, 1995 to discuss the priority of set aside funds? She stated it is
her understanding that the meaning of this Commission is to let the first securities
run out before looking at any other lenders and it is not logical that the most
interaction the Commission has had is with Ms. Stornetta. We can utilize these
funds now. She recommended $150,000 be allocated to North American
Mortgage Company and the Commission can review their performance after 6
months and can be shared with a shorter term.
Discussion concluded. Chairman Eck confirmed no formal action would be
considered until the next regular Commission meeting of May 23rd, 1995.
ADJOURNMENT: There being no further business, Chairman Eck adjourned the meeting at
approximately 9:50 p.m.
