Dear Councilman Uranga,
I understand that there has been no CEQA documentation whatsoever done for this project (other than the Program EIR done for the entire General Plan Land Use Element), and that this project requires 16 pages of conditions! In addition, there is no mention of low-cost, or even affordable housing being provided with this development.
Even though this is not in the 7th district, I feel very strongly that it is your responsibility, as our representative, to ask why there is no CEQA documentation and no mention of low-cost, or affordable housing, especially if nobody else will.
This absolutely reeks of blatant look-the-other-way-ism, MORE in service of a developer, and LESS in service to the community.
Please request & support moving this off of the consent calendar so that it can be discussed appropriately.
Item 10. Please remove this from the Consent Calendar for more discussion.
Recommendation to find that all requirements of the final subdivision map for condominium purposes, to construct a 23-unit townhouse style residential dwelling development project located at 2200-2212 East 7th Street, 600-620 Dawson Avenue and 621 Dawson Avenue have been met; approve the final map for Tract No. 83035; authorize City Manager, or designee, to execute subdivision agreements; and Determine the project is within the scope of the project previously analyzed as part of the General Plan Land Use Element and Urban Design Element Program Environmental Impact Report (State Clearinghouse Number 2015051054) of the General Plan and warrants no further environmental review pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines section 15162. (District 2)
Sincerely,
Roger Martin Holman
