STAFl REPORT
--
In keeping with the suggestions provided by Mayor Evlyn Wilcox, Councilwoman
Esther Estrada and Councilman Jess Flores, this is to recommend that the
Commission authorize Agency staff to initiate all of the preliminary steps
required to consider the potential designation of a Redevelopment Survey
area(s) for the Mt. Vernon business corridor and appropriate surrounding
areas.
The preliminary steps required to initiate redevelopment planning consist of
the following activities:
1. Develop a detailed schedule of redevelopment planning activities;
2. Develop and issue a Request For Qualifications (RFQ) for
professional redevelopment planning services, evaluate
qualification proposals and recommend an appropriate planning firm;
3. Develop an Agency staff services plan;
4. Develop a comprehensive redevelopment planning budget and
financing plan;
5. Develop citizen participation options.
-
It is estimated that these activities can be accomplished within the next
three months. Subsequently, staff will recommend a detailed action and
financial plan for Commission consideration. It is important to note, that a
Redevelopment Survey Area will not be initially recommended by staff.
Instead, staff believes it is appropriate for the chosen planning firm in
cooperation with the Commission appointed citizen's group to recommend
appropriate Redevelopment Survey Area options to the Commission at a later
time.
'-
Since it is appropriate that these activities be initiated concurrently with
the NArB proposal, it was not possible to first submit them to the
Redevelopment Committee for review. However, the matter was discussed with
the Committee's Chairperson.
It is, therefore, recommended that the Commission authorize the staff
activities described above.
