Top issues during term (6)(Development)
Former City Hall site housing development (Danco Communities)
Advances the sale of city-owned land to Danco Communities and completes a 100-unit affordable housing project financed in two phases.
Citywide Beautification Program Year One Funding
$73,755 from general fund reserves.
Repeal of the Rent Registry program
Staffing limits mean the city can run either the registry or the new rent review program — not both; repeal redirects existing capacity to rent review.
1820 Rumrill Blvd affordable housing deal
Sale price and payment terms were negotiated in closed session.
$3 Million Affordable Housing Commitment at 13717 San Pablo Avenue
$3 million from the housing successor agency's fund — not the general fund.
Housing Production and the 746-Unit State Allocation
Missing the state housing goal exposes San Pablo to losing funding eligibility and streamlined-review penalties under state law.
