Top issues during term (18)(Development)
Housing Authority parking easement for City Park project site
No direct cost — it's a paperwork cleanup for the park project.
Jordan Creek East development density and traffic
No direct city cost; the denial preserves existing street conditions but forgoes 40 additional housing units.
Workforce housing near downtown
About $440,000 in fees at stake for the city, with up to 70 percent potentially covered by the CRA.
Release of 2005 senior-housing deed restrictions
No direct financial impact; the release was consideration for a $10 transaction tied to the broader deal.
Wilcox lot parking agreement dispute
Unresolved — could affect the city's municipal development plans and any required space acquisition.
Ware's Row building height increase at 500 15th Street West
No direct city cost, but the project skips the usual workforce-housing and LEED contributions that normally buy extra height.
CRA Impact Fee Incentives for Met IIB and Met III Workforce Housing
Could eat into CRA net revenues on future affordable projects.
Newstar affordable housing at 1801 13th Avenue East
CRA commits up to $84,000 if City Council signs the funding form.
Sale of surplus 1706 9th Street East parcel
Sale proceeds recover roughly 75% of the original 32-acre Tropicana parcel cost; shared road and utility costs could trim the Public Works build-out.
SHIP housing rehabilitation loan for 1002 3rd Avenue East
$71,312 in SHIP program funds for one home's rehabilitation.
park development public input
Your tax dollars will likely help pay for whatever park plan moves forward, so the public input phase is your chance to influence how that money gets spent.
Ballard Park brownfield redevelopment
The developer's 30 percent city-side share is not yet quantified in dollars.
Sale of Bryant Commons CRA Property
Potential $511,000 sale plus an estimated $5-10 million in follow-on private investment.
City Hall sale and mixed-use development
The developer is investing roughly $18 million in an on-site parking garage alone.
Old City Hall site traffic improvements
Potentially funded through transportation impact fees; amount not yet determined.
426-foot dock through Braden River mangroves
Privately funded; the city bears no cost.
Workforce housing follow-up on Met IV extension
Staff plans to show the Board exactly what the CRA contributes and what additional funding would be needed.
CRA-owned BPD substation house sale falls through
Removes the property from CRA rolls; sale price not stated.
