McGowan <br />Robert Gonzales <br />Guadalupe Bugariv <br /> <br />project area, but is not <br />requested written information <br />affected.) <br /> <br />(Jerrold Fadem filled out a form to address the Council, but <br />declined to speak on two occasions) <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Robert Hoffman, Redevelopment and Real Estate Manager, stated that most of the <br />property acquisitions anticipated in the project area are going to be in <br />conjunction with the widening of Bristol or parcels acquired for the street <br />widening and remaining parcels acquired by the Redevelopment Agency for <br />repackaging into better development sites. Since the street widening is a <br />long-term project, many acquisitions will not occur before the street widening <br />gets underway. <br /> <br />PUBLIC COHlŒNTS <br /> <br />There were additional public comments regarding the Redevelopment Plan. <br /> <br />It was brought out that the public hearing will be broadcast on numerous <br />occasions prior to the meeting of November 6. <br /> <br />The Chairman declared the hearing closed at 8:20 p.m., and solicited comments <br />from members of the Redevelopment Agency/City Council/Redevelopment Commission. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Commissioner Raya commented that if social and community needs are not <br />addressed in the redevelopment process, it is doomed for failure. He <br />suggested the Plan should include a commitment to the residents for their well <br />being and safety, and that tax increment funds be specifically directed, i.e., <br />code enforcement officers, so that they know their paycheck is coming from <br />that area. <br /> <br />-3- <br />
