“We’re not against redevelopment. We’re for redevelopment. But the community has to be for it to.”
“He planning that um they have. Hes thinking that affordable housing is section 8 government assistance is affordable housing and that’s not affordable housing assigned to moderate income that’s just ah government assistance”
Ah nothing really, What we’ve been doing is working with the organizations. NAACP. We’re working with a bunch of other different organizations as well.
“We need a community benefits agreement. With the developer whoever they choose will have a development that will benefit the community. Affordable housing, more infrastructure, We would also want the right to hosuing to anybody displaced because of redevelopment.
Well they wanted to build approximately 2500 condos which is out of the question, luxury condos which people can’t afford. At least nobody in this neighborhood, where they gonna get people who’s gonna move into these condos. The thing is Urban America didn’t want to talk to us.
What will impact the schools with more people coming in could be signifigant.
I don’t know the amount of the people that will be displaced, because we have not gotten the new plans from the new developer.
We’ll take a look at what the plan is before we decide what kind of an impact it will have on the community.
Well we want 50 percent low income or housing that the lower income tier can afford, and that what we want.
The last plan failed because of the housing market. If you look at the housing it is not very good right now, people are selling their homes, lots of people are having foreclosures. I guess a lot of people didn’t want to see them come in here and buy 2500 luxury units.
“I do not know.
We haven’t seen any proposals yet, so we have put out what we said we wanted, and we’ll see from there.
“The community”
