ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
Mrs. Janice Boer, 912
No. Lowell, stated she
wanted to call attention to the fact that the Downtown Redevelopment Plan will
have a definite impact on the City and that it is hypocritical of the Agency to
state that it will not; that the entire City will be integrated by legal means;
that any amount of taxpayers' money could be loaned to the Agency; that
general obligation bonds could be issued for capital improvements without
a vote of the people; that subsidized leased-housing rentals could be built;
that joint powers agreements with school districts and other agencies could
be established; that the City may "use" the staff members of the Department
of Housing and Urban Development. She further stated that the School
District had already been allowed to build a permanent structure in the
public-right-of-way; and that the property had never been abandoned.
The meeting was
adjourned at 2:30 P.M.,
on the unanimously approved motion of Commissioner Evans, seconded
by Commissioner Yamamoto.
