Top issues during term (11)(Development)
Mobile home park rent control and overcharges
Residents warn hundreds of mobile homeowners could face thousands of dollars in increased space rents if changes are delayed.
Managing citywide growth and infrastructure
About $1.8 million total, funded through water and sewer enterprise funds — not Measure R.
Adaptive reuse of vacant Rite Aid building
Filling industrial space would add jobs and diversify the city's revenue base.
Affordable Housing at Alma Santa Paula (Missing Middle)
A one-time $53,000 city loan/grant ($1,000 per unit), repaid through the project's tax structure.
Hillside home at 286 View Drive
Construction on the lot likely won't start until mid-2027 after plan check, so neighbors have time to prepare.
Affordable Housing Projects — Gateway Grove and Topa Vista Villas
$1.6 million from the Affordable Housing Trust Fund, returned over time as 3% loans.
East Harvard infill site redevelopment vision
No cost to the city right now — the concept work was grant-funded; anything further would come from city funds.
East Gateway neighborhood retail center
Estimated net positive fiscal impact of about $346,000 per year to the city, plus one-time construction permit fees.
Santa Paula East retail center continued
A major retail center that would become the city's largest shopping destination remains in review.
Independence at the Harvest — 298 condo units
No immediate change to what residents pay; after 30 years half the facility tax continues and would help fund the sports park.
Future of the Triangle Property
Any eventual sale or development deal could bring revenue and new business activity to a currently non-taxproducing vacant lot, but terms are still being negotiated behind closed doors.
