commission on ethics renee did you have anything to add to this no just welcome miss geiger thank you hello and as i always say calling it a presentation is a little um overblown it's really not i'm just here to say hi i'll remind you that we are here again say we've now just had our 15 year anniversary um we're moving really shifting toward complaints primarily to now answering questions so we're always happy to take phone calls we're always happy to write opinions um i always like to remind everybody to think of three things before they they act the first is and i just went through i know i just went through this with the uh with the commission itself but i'm going to say it again just in case people are listening paying attention we have to have a prohibited entity so a relative an outside business uh something like that we have to have a financial benefit and that financial benefit has to be special which means it has to impact a class of under 100 essentially so before you take an action that will benefit one of those prohibited entities just make sure you kind of run through that process and see whether or not there's going to be a benefit um so that applies to voting and it also applies to um actions that we take just in our in our work and our decisions we make and things that we put forward so remember that um also i think i just said i think you guys are on your training cycle must be coming up so um i'll be happy to come out and do a live training you know i always enjoy coming to delray um otherwise that's actually a great idea we do it for the staff

trainings there i i mean the video we're finally updating the video by the way i know most of you have probably don't laugh that was mean um we're updating the video but i do there is so much more

would you call the roll commissioner carney chair chair casal yes vice chair mollica yes deputy vice chair market yes and commissioner burns yes thank you and we are on to 8a which is an update and discussion on the 2026 amendment to the delver beach community redevelopment agency plan good afternoon commissioners christine tibbs assistant director so we've been working on our amendment for a little bit and the last time that you saw a draft of this was in august 2024 we have been working alongside treasure coast regional planning council and that draft that was presented in 2024 had up included updates to the florida statutes that impact the cra input from community stakeholders residents property owners business owners cra board and other city officials updates updates to cria district goals and needs updates to um our projects programs initiatives um and a re or a slight reorganization to the structure and the format after which um we did undergo a um more substantial um edit to and revision to the way that the document reads and the way that the document looks um so that it's improved and there's more it's more user friendly better pictures better maps and so this is what i will present to you today this is the final 2026 amendment of the plan um and it provides it like i said a more user friendly framework for the redevelopment of our cra district and the projects programs and initiatives and activities that we undertake um to revitalize and improve the conditions within our district so the overview of the changes uh it retains the core four subject matters of the current 2014 plan updates maps images graphics and project progress um and just you everyone on the dais has a full copy of the 2026 amendment yes um there's a more user-friendly design layout and content updates the cra needs and goals based on input feedback received um from the the the parties that i just mentioned and includes updates within the florida statutes significantly from the 2019 um update uh regarding cras connects the cra needs and goals uh projects and programs and strategies to relevant statute or florida statutes so that we all know why we're doing what we're doing updates to the narratives that reflect current conditions community needs and priorities highlights ongoing projects and programs and their alignment with our cra needs and goals and incorporates updated demographic profiles for each sub area using the most recent census and projection data and that's the full report of it is included as an appendix which you also have in front of you so we'll go into it retaining the core subject matter that was in our 2014 plan so you'll see that on the left side is the 2014 table of contents and we've just highlighted that you know we've moved those into our current plan but in a more user-friendly fashion um so that you can better more quickly understand where those things are in our plan and then you'll see again it just the 2014 now on the right side how we just condensed it um and it's easier to read and just find where those things are in our current 2026 amendment slide so before whereas there were three pages of tables of contents with a lot of subsections we now have just one simple easy to read table of contents significantly we've updated maps images graphics so that there's the cover now we have our pretty aerial of our c area district looking out to the beach and then you'll see in 2014 we had those images that needed to be updated maps that needed to be updated so we've gone and had new images highlighting where our district is in comparison to the city boundaries better quality aerials of our district better quality pictures of different sections of our city we've included more graphics of a timeline of our projects is included from 2014 to 2025 and that map that word cloud that you see those are the words that came out of our outreach meetings and then we shaped them into our district so you'll see what was important from the community that came out of that that that's been incorporated in our update so enhances user-friendly design layout and content so the condensed table of contents right there you'll see the three pages moving into one you'll also notice that we've color coded we'll go back we'll call it we color coded all the sections that color coding is translated throughout so you'll see the red bar go across the red pages so you can quickly find where you are in our plan the teal bar the orange bar so you know you're in the financial section or the project section um so it all ties back to being more user-friendly and being able to find where you are in the plan more quickly so that's where this is uh treasure coast helped come up with the icon design for our needs and goals so you can again more quickly see where projects fall in terms of you know which CRA need and goal is being fulfilled and then we've also um so we've condensed the sections better for a more complete understanding they were um in two parts in the old plan and now we have just one section with all the sub area information rather than splitting it um apart as it was in 2014. so then this is again going back to making everything more user-friendly with a more complete understanding we've color blocked all of our needs and goals and then the strategies they're all in the same section so you can understand what the need is what the goal is what are the strategies we should be undertaking to meet those needs and goals within our district and they all have the icon um and it just reads easier more simple cleaner layout and that's where we were going with this you know further update from 2024. so now we've updated our needs and goals based on the input and feedback from the stakeholders and other members of the community and we've also incorporated the updates to the florida statutes so you'll see that we used to have affordable housing and downtown housing split up into two different needs we've just combined that now into housing um you'll see recreation and cultural facilities has been updated to public assets and facilities um infrastructure has been updated to infrastructure mobility improvements we've added importantly policing innovation as it's called out in our in the florida statutes as something that we can help accomplish um and then economic development has now been updated to development and investment you'll see the definitions for those needs and goals um and the icons tied into what we're trying to accomplish and as mentioned earlier we have been better about connecting those needs and goals with the florida statutes so as we move through you'll see highlighted it circled in yellow the specific section in the florida statutes that ties into that need and goal and we've also spent significant time with treasure coast updating narratives to reflect current conditions community needs and priorities we've put those narratives at the forefront to highlight what we're doing who we're doing it for why we're doing it what we're trying to achieve so you'll see um more qualitative narratives throughout the plan and significantly these are some of these are highlighted at the very forefront before the sections and then they're also highlighted throughout we've updated the neighborhood plan section to now include the set transformation plan that was recently updated and adopted and then we've also incorporated it throughout the entire plan uh in different ways highlighting ongoing projects and programs and their alignment to cra needs and goals so we've come up with treasure coast we've come up with a table and then you'll see that all of our projects and programs there's a check mark as to which need and goal this project this program this initiative is helping us meet within the cra district so it's more easily understandable and then as i mentioned earlier in other sections of the plan you'll see it tying back to the florida statutes more examples of the overall narrative and projects and programs that were updated you'll see that all the ones that are in our plan right now are long-term ongoing plans we've taken out all the completed ones that we've since completed since 2014. this was in the 2014 plan as redevelopment projects and then this is how it looks now more understandable which need is each program helping us like achieve those goals and then you'll see the icons and then you can go back to the cra needs and goals section for the definitions for those needs and goals and the strategies that are within those needs and goals so this is the 2014 plan and the 26 2026 amendment again these are just the updated tables and then the last thing is we did update um the demographic data so you'll see the income profiles have been updated um and the race and ethnicity projections now go out to 2029 and the full profile is included as an appendix so any questions as to the update um basically how it looks now comments i think it's beautiful good job that's like 10 times better excellent well i just want to mention dana from treasure coast is here and he was a big part in helping us get to the new design and layout that is way more user-friendly and more graphic forward as well yeah great job i mean it's designed beautifully it's user-friendly the color code is amazing great great work same um love this revised version um i think someone with a teaching background had something to do with this because this definitely comes out of the classroom um we use color for as a teaching tool so we really appreciate this it makes it very easy to follow so when i go through it it's going to be a breeze yeah thank you i think someone from a legal background citations the citation good marketing stuff combination and you're a real estate person fabulous and we're humble down here um i like i like this i just you outdo yourselves all the time in a way that i find amazingly shocking that you think the last plane couldn't have been better and this is way better thank you dana very much but um one quick question when this is finalized and online will this be interactive clicking on links to get to different places or is this just going to be up as well we can make that happen i mean do we think that we should i i actually don't know what the cost of that would be or what that looks like but it's such fabulous information that i feel if there's a way that we could do that we should probably do that okay because we have so i know we call it the set transformation plan out but there's actually all the different area plans the downtown master plan um del ida all the plans are in there so they could actually try to click those out so you can go to those links i mean we have all the information up there it's just a question of how do you make it the most accessible for the residents or the individuals who are looking at it so i'll leave that to the experts uh thank you very much i think this sounds like sounds like ai to me we'll figure something out we'll be creative so just for next steps just to mention so we have to bring this back we're still tweaking a few little things through the plan and doing a little bit of cleanup so we also want to see if there's any comments from the board so if there's none we'll finish up on our end and we'll bring this back in july to adopt so would you like us to each go through this and then respond to you with and what's our time frame for that um within a month or so okay so with everybody we have a month to go through this and then send any email with any comments questions concerns or thoughts right and then after the cra board approves it then it goes to the city commission for the city to approve so we have to allow for that planning and zoning sorry planning zoning first thank you so we have to allow that time so we just wanted to present it to you all since we're very near completion so it was great very exciting yes does that conclude yes oh just one more thing yes well um so with this the last plan amendment um in 2014 the cra sunset date was able to be extended through 2024 so the florida statute allowed for the plan amendment to extend the life for 30 years so from 2014 30 years 2044 then the statute changed um saying um saying that the cra's would sunset in 2039 except for approval with the governing body the city did um on november 1st 2022 through a resolution did extend the series um sunset date through september 16th 2044 however um with this plan amendment we are hoping um that florida statute section 163.382 says that a cra created before july 2002 um has the ability to extend for 30 years um from the what is it 30 years from the cra plan amendment adoption wow with but not extending beyond 60 years from the creation date so through this adoption of this amendment we are hoping to extend the sea area until june 17th 2045 because we were created in june 18th 1985 so just a few more months that's still exciting i was gonna say it's a few months just confused it oh yeah there's a lot in here all we have to say for just a few more months basically taking advantage of the entire 60 years that the statute allows us to be in existence right and it'll be important because as we look at bonding for different projects in the future i think every month that we can have still in existence will be beneficial so that's something that we'll also present in more detail once we bring this back in july thank you so much appreciate this okay we are on to new business 9a delray beach community redevelopment agency fiscal year 2026 2027 draft budget overview yes okay good afternoon everyone so um this is the time we are we start looking at oops oops we look at it'll be a moment one moment one moment there we go okay so this is the time of year where we start looking at our budgeting for the next fiscal year so as you know a lot of our funding um goes towards the city for different various projects and then we also budget for cria projects as well so at this time we're just starting that process we have not received the city's budget request yet so we're just looking really high level so i just wanted to provide an overview of things that we typically find for the benefit of course of our new commissioner as well and for those who have been here of what we usually fund and kind of send the outlook of what we're looking at we don't have numbers attached to these things yet but they're just talking generally and you'll see as with previous years a lot of our projects are continuing on from the year before because they are longer term projects there's not a lot of new things but this is also a chance if you guys have anything you want to bring up or discuss we can start talking about that now as we're starting the budgeting planning process so here are the overall needs from our current plan these will change as we adopt our new plan amendment but this is what the current overall needs are in our cria district so this is what we use to come up with different projects that we're working on throughout the year and this is what we just touched on with the extension so this is the statute that we referred to before so we won't go too far into it we can grab well i'll just keep going well or we can grab our slides if you'd like yeah we have it printed out for you okay there we go thank you so going on to the next couple slides so um if you recall last year we set out a few slides that cover cra priorities so we have a work plan that's much more detailed but we wanted to have a more condensed version so you can have this on the go if you want to look at what the the priorities are that we're working on so we updated this with where we are currently on each of these projects and programs and we broke it up into short short term and long-term planning initiatives property management and activation so you'll see here we have all of the updates the biggest thing we worked on through the year was really the set transformation plan which you'll see as scratched off as complete yay and then now we're working on our redevelopment plan which will be complete as we go through the rest of this fiscal year jumping into property management these are just our normal property maintenance things that we have that go on from time to time throughout the year we're finishing up with 95 southwest fifth avenue i think that's the biggest thing that i'll call out and we will be planning a ribbon cutting for that very soon next are CRA development projects which we've talked a lot about the biggest things i'll say is definitely west atlantic avenue we have a few agenda items covering those later on in this present this meeting but this is where we gave updates on all the different things that we're working on as far as property development and then last on this slide is demolition so as you know at times we buy properties for the land and we have to buildings that are dilapidated need to be demolished so we do have a few of these demolitions that we have on slate for this fiscal year and this slide covers a few of the ongoing priorities that we have with the city of delray beach and again they're noting everything that's ongoing and what's been completed i'll just call out that we did finish the accessory dwelling unit study with the city of delray beach which is great because we also have our townhouse project that we're working on so they kind of work hand in hand with this completion of this study and you'll see the rest of the information here as ongoing in our reports in the beginning of our agenda we have full detail on updates on all of these projects if you want to see it in more depth this was just a highlight of this area priorities for some of the more standout things we wanted to call out and then on the bottom of this slide just want to keep it in the back of everyone's heads we do have a future infrastructure project a little asterisk there for the southwest neighborhood infrastructure project we're working on the northwest but i always like to throw in the southwest so it doesn't get forgotten about as we budget year to year but you also recall our years of existence are shortening and the project costs are getting higher and higher so just something to think about but i always want to just mention that we do have the southwest project for a future project with the city of delray beach and here's additional details these are just again some little random quite type things we've been in the process of updating or renovating our seri office building so that was the first thing on that slide okay there we go and that's a pretty big overhaul so we are looking to relocate our hvac system which is currently underneath in our crawl space into our actual office space roof repair siding repair painting so this is a pretty big project that we're well on the way and working on also another large project we've been working on pretty heavily is arts warehouse improvements you'll see more about that in future agendas but that's been a major um renovation project there that is almost complete with the first part we're starting to get into the roof and exterior work after we finish up the interior and this is just a summary of other ongoing things the list goes on and on we try to make it as as condensed as possible this is going to turn off again um but that was an overview of our ongoing activities outside of things that are in our work plan for the year all right sure um would it be okay if miss burns asks oh sure the lake ida um property on here what's the status of that so lake ida um we are going to be hiring an architect soon to start doing designs for the what will be there that the homes we were trying to wait for the accessory dwelling unit study and to do some multi-family there but it is zoned single family so we're going to start looking at that a little more in detail coming into the fiscal year we'll budget for it it'll be on it'll be on for next fiscal years in the budgeting we just didn't call this was just what we did for this current fiscal year okay yeah for future that will be on our project list yes definitely oh actually we have it here um so this is a list of all of the affordable workforce housing sites that we have in the status so you'll see actually lake ida it's at the end of this one this is for going forward into the future this slide covers the typical funding requests received for the city of delray beach so capital improvements is probably the biggest one um okay is it the clicker i know is it my clicker does someone else okay so the typical funding requests from the city are capital improvement projects clean and safe program contractual services which covers the housing rehab inspector northwest southwest code enforcement officers northwest southwest litter prevention officers engineer inspector two project managers for the cip projects and also it services and here are as an overview of the long-term projects which the biggest one is pompey park which we just discussed earlier in this meeting so we will have to discuss budgeting for that um i'll work with gina maybe doing a budget request in july or august so that we can look at where we can kind of shift some funds around to help start paying the additional for that project but we do have 45 million currently in the budget so that's for sure already budgeted for pompey but we'll have to look at the additional could i ask a question with respect to that it's still we should have money in next year's budget will we really have to shift at this point do you think to make it work with the amount of money we currently have i mean we have the whatever 14 million in acquisitions so clearly we could move money around and we we won't it won't be a problem but the way this is laid out we shouldn't really need it in the immediate future all of it at any rate not all of it but i think we have to see what we're getting from the city and the county and what we're budgeting for now so we'll probably be able to get a substantial amount of that you know the biggest one is the northwest neighborhood infrastructure project and the cost estimates were high so it's really those two that were are the biggest ticket items that we have um but we don't know the amount we're getting from the city northwest we're doing with bonds so this is this money is just what we we have in our budget and what we plan on acquiring in the future correct exactly yes look coming into the next fiscal year right so we will end up budgeting we'll have to look at i think we should have a better idea by july so maybe we won't have to do a budget amendment maybe we will but once the city enters in the contract i think we would probably not we typically transfer the funds to the city once the city enters into the contract and then the money is managed that way so once the contract is approved we will do the transfer for the the 45 i'll discuss that with um public works to get that done right away and then we can look at the rest as we go forward thank you right um so the other one is northwest which yes we are looking at the um the bond for that we were trying to save up some money to see if we could help with that bond number um but we we had to shift some funds out for pompeii recently from the last budget amendment and now we're looking at this one um but again we are looking at the bond so i just talked to henry actually about that i told him we need money so um it's typically the city would issue the bonds and then we pay the debt service got it so we have to start that conversation again um because the city started the project with the cm at risk recently so we do have to get get going on that pretty soon every year that goes by every month that goes by it's less time that we have an existence so uh we do need to start working on that and then again i'll call out the southwest neighborhood project because that still is on the list of to do's and long-term projects obviously west atlantic development is the biggest thing that we have going and then assessing other opportunities in other sub areas i think that's something still in the future if we want to look at that i think we've been really really focused as you can see with budgeting and all of our discussions on developing west atlantic because that is the area of biggest need right now but as we come up with plans and things for the area we can maybe start looking assessing other sub areas considering funding availability because we have such large amounts of funding projects that we have in the west atlantic so these are just pictures of the um the vacant blocks i'll just kind of go through these quickly but this is the northwest 600 block where we're looking at the affordable townhouses with the accessory dwelling units next is the northwest 800 block which we have an item on our agenda today to discuss the rfp that's in the drafting phase this is also an area we have a few pieces of property on the northwest 900 block we also have a few on the northwest 1000 block southwest 600 block is where we received the unsolicited proposal for the supermarket commercial space southwest 700 block which we also have an rfp on the agenda to cover this area and also the southwest 800 block we also own a bit of property behind the fairfield on the southwest 900 block that is all for the property so next step is basically to review the city's budget request actually prepare the draft budget and then start working on the work plan so i think we should hopefully get the budget request from the city soon not sure we usually ask for it by may the end of may so we'll see what happens oh gina wanted to say yeah i was told it's probably going to be mid-june okay so mid-june we'll have the budget request from the city so hopefully by july we'll have something a little more concrete with numbers to be able to present to you if not then august thank you any questions mayor carney no no miss burns mr marker i'm good miss mollica okay thank you then on to 9b discussion and direction regarding request for proposals for the development of the southwest 700 and 800 blocks of west atlantic avenue yes okay so we're going to be starting with the request for proposals for the southwest seven and 800 blocks um so i will start this by saying that we i recently had a conversation with the individuals that provided the unsolicited proposal they're still looking at and assessing if it could be shifted and what opportunities they have there so we'll i'd like to go through the rfp so that we have them prepared if we need to make any adjustments we can do that later but i don't know if we are in the position at this point to issue until that is resolved since they're still looking at the other block that that came up at the first meeting if that's okay totally agree i'm in agreement on that i'm still i'm still not positive that we shouldn't give the people options to do all three six seven and eight as opposed to carving them up that's just well you may find a different someone with more of a master plan kind of a concept that could be useful to us as opposed to but maybe you build it into the each rfp saying if you want to also do the other and create us a master plan just invite them to do that and do it the way you are i just i just i and i don't know that they're going to do that i just but could they could do unsolicited right now if they submit for the seven eight they could just put in a right in addition to we'd like you know so i mean i think anyone who has enough knowledge about the area and what's going on probably knows where we're at perhaps maybe i'm mistaken in thinking that but right we can i think well we need we actually need the unsolicited group to come back so we have the second meeting and that's when we go we vote yes or no so i was just checking in to see where they were at i guess they're still in that assessing and trying to respond to the comments that we had so once we have that meeting then we'll know where we're going with that block but i know they were also assessing as part of the comments about relocating it potentially so that's why it's a little bit tricky and difficult to have a concrete issue date for these rfps since they're still looking at that and we still need to have a second meeting to be able to say yes or no and do the next vote that we need to do so do we have an anticipated date for the second meeting not yet that's what i was trying to assess from them but they are i guess still looking at it so hopefully i'll follow up with them again next week they said there was someone out of town that would be back next week and maybe we'll have some more information at that time but so we at least wanted to get these rfps finalized we incorporated the comments that we had at the last meeting so we just wanted to go through those really quickly i can definitely say this is a well also well thought out rfp that is extremely comprehensive and if we need to to shift it to a different block we can do it pretty easily because i think the the bones of it is there this incorporates all the past rfps lawsuits and comments and everything are in these documents so i think they're very comprehensive so we'll just go through the changes very quickly and then that's it we'll just come back our next meeting is until july if we need to have a special meeting in the meantime we can reach out and schedule that if they're ready so we don't have to wait till july all right so here's an overview image of the properties and this is a highlight of the the changes that we made so we had discussed the architectural styles of the last meeting building heights the affordable workforce housing unit count also using additional cra properties as off-site workforce units and also we looked at the evaluation criteria so here are the properties this is the southwest 700 block and this is the southwest 800 block so for the architectural style we decided to have five architectural styles so the florida vernacular anglo-caribbean main street vernacular mediterranean revival and classic traditional and here are pictures of what each of those look like and the building height we did state that the code allows for four however the set your information plan and there's been a preference stated for three to give the flexibility in case somebody wants to you know propose the three but we did not want to limit it just to three so this gives the flexibility if they want to just follow the code with the four we also asked for the residential component to be the at least 40 for the workforce low moderate units and then we also made an allowance for off-site workforce units so right now we have five vacant that are in the area if we want to include these we can if we acquire more and we want to throw those in there too we can as well or we could develop them before but we just wanted to put this option in that it takes a pressure off of the actual development that they have some off-site units that would be available um in case they would like to take advantage of that and here's where they're located we don't have many units left and that's something we'll talk about in july is this the cost of buying lots is getting really expensive so these are lots that we've just had over the years um that we are trying to incorporate into this project to get them developed otherwise we can look at developing developing them otherwise but there's um the costs are just getting really expensive so we only have five right now that would be available to be used in this project and then we also highlighted our CRA incentive opportunities the development infrastructure program land value investments and any other opportunities that the successful proposer would like to discuss or a co-ownership or master leasing with the CRA so we're still working on the language for the first two programs with um with sana as our attorney but in concept these are the programs that we've had for many years that we're just updating right now and we included in the submittal requirements if there's any proposed zoning change we didn't really call this out the first time but we just wanted to highlight that because when we did this for the um southwest 600 block six seven eight hundred years ago the southwest 600 block was fully rezoned for that entire block so i we just kind of thought we should include that here if there's any proposal to rezone any blocks that we would want to know about that in advance and they need to call out how they would go about doing that and then this is the evaluation criteria i know there were some questions that came up about the financing structure fiscal impact so we split that up a little bit so it's a little bit more clear as to what we were looking for based on what we're asking for in this particular rfp so most of the changes took place in the financial structure and the fiscal impact so the financial structure is really more so about what their project is and their audits and their financial statements and their financial information fiscal impact which we put that at five points is how their project impacts which is very speculative so we just included that at a five percent and broke it out from the financial structure just to make it more clear and then basically next steps is there any other comments that the board has you can let us know um we have here discussion issue date but i think we should hold off until we actually have more information about what's happening with the north south west 600 block so we know what we're putting out any comments miss mollick no i agree with holding off mr marker holding off yeah same thing and thank you for this very comprehensive if i can understand that it is comprehensive thank you we're ready to go then we did it mayor and i don't have any additional comments either thank you that was a lot for you to incorporate from our comments and i appreciate it um did you need anything else from us no that's it okay thank you so we're on to nine c discussion and direction regarding requests for proposals for the development of the northwest 800 blocks of west atlantic avenue so i'll just say same um yes i know a lot of this is the same but since there are two different rfps essentially they're structured that way right now again if this changes later on we can adjust it but this one um a little more unique because it does have that remediation site included right so they do have to address how they're handling that so that's why we did it as a separate um agenda item and rfp so i'll skip through here's a picture of the block by the way um i'll skip through some of the early comments about the architectural style building height those are all pretty much the same as the previous one so this is a summary of the parcels same design guidelines and design standards here are the five again and then we also had the building height as exactly the same the maximum four but the allowance and preference for three if they'd like to go that route the residential component here was thirty percent not forty percent right um and then we only have one parcel on this north side that could accommodate for off-site workforce housing that's actually within the block i could show you a picture of that so we included this if somebody wants to use that as off-site workforce housing it's right here where is that this is the northwest ninth and northwest first okay so this is within the same block okay just on first same comments for the incentives and opportunities we're still working on drafting and revising the two programs also we incorporated the same change for those the addition for the zoning for them to identify if they are planning to rezone and how they would go about doing that and why and then for the evaluation criteria we made the same changes with the fiscal impact in the financial structure but we also had here about the remediation information so that's something that's different to this one so that's addressed in the proposed project development but same point structure overall that's it thank you um one thing we're buzzing through the slides quickly you have the 30 percent uh residential on that but did we want to give a particular component of commercial we had talked about how this property should probably have a commercial component um but we didn't really identify how much of a commercial component are we leaving that flexible just to see what we get well by code it has to be on at the atlantic avenue has to but we want to do on top of that if we want to do additional then that's what we'd have to add that in there if you would like to do that um i get no i just want to make sure i know it has to be right on the front but i thought we were talking about it more as a as primary commercial with some element of residential but i guess at this point we just have to wait to see what the applications look like right i mean we can add that in here if you'd like if it's a if there's a desire of the board to add that we'd like to see a higher level of commercial or maybe office space or something or we can look at language and bring that back to the board um but since it had the atlantic avenue that we didn't add on top of that but we can we just did less of the um affordable workforce on this particular parcel right i guess should you think before we ask you to dive into more should we wait and see what the grocery situation is because that could answer that question yes please i mean have you done i mean i i happen to be with a grocer over the weekend he used to run a big grocery chain and he said that there are studies done as to what side of the road it should be on i mean i don't know whether he said he doesn't know whether the north side of the road is better than the south side for a grocery for example are we getting market studies just to tell you which the best activity we could do commercial activity whatever are we are we doing are we getting these studies we don't have it ourselves i guess we're taking it from the grocer from they are what they right exactly i'm sure that they are i can ask them right i can ask if they are we had jll assessed grocery stores generally we can go and ask them if they would do a separate study but we didn't do it particularly for us my expertise expertise i'm just saying this is what they described to me and they said because it's very important what side of the road you're on i don't you know i'm sure that all these figure that out and said they want it there so that's fine but but when you're doing commercial and other activities you we need to know what kind of commercial would go there so we can say this is what we'd like to have right we'd have to pay for that they typically don't share that with us because probably because they don't want their competitors seeing it but just having come out of that world myself they have teams of people this is all they do for a living because they can't afford to make a site mistake um they spend a lot of money on it i'm sure we we did it off of steepo i can tell you right now i'm sure you do sure you did so do we want to just leave this as it is at the moment until we hear back from the grocer with respect to potentially moving to this location or do we want to have further engagement with respect to what we want to see here gross is also looking at this location we asked them to last time yes that's part of the questions that the comments that they're addressing waiting okay we should wait to see what the grocer does comes back with okay thank you and it shouldn't be too long right couple weeks no no i think yeah i think we'll have something pretty soon okay so i think the consensus is we just wait until we hear further with respect to the grocer on the um on that block is that do you need anything else from us no that's all we'll finalize these documents and whenever we're ready to issue we know we have a document ready to go we don't have any lead time on preparation so fabulous thank you so we are oh sure i just have a question about another property i keep all these properties in my head what about the the garaway property on northwest 10th and first ganaway so that one we're planning to issue um for that to be built now or an rfp now exactly so we were looking at some of the parcels we have that are more into the neighborhoods that we are going to be coming back and asking the board to issue those if we want to shift those into this project we can um but we are planning to have an item on our july meeting about housing so we can no i just wanted to know because i know that it's available now and yes it wasn't listed as an available property right so we actually have about three or four parcels in there that once some across the street that we're going through some replatting and different things so we were planning to put those all out because it's kind of like a two street block that we can put out in advance of this or again we can include it in here so when we bring it up in july we can we can show you all of those parcels and see if we want to wait but yeah that will make a really good impact though that's why we wanted to put it out earlier so it wouldn't have to wait thank you yes great so that concludes our new business and we are on to other business uh comments by our executive director so we have a um cra social so this is where we invite members of the public in the community just to come and meet us and talk to us and get to know our staff a little bit more um get to know a little bit more about the projects this isn't really like a formal presentation necessarily unless it becomes that uh but we found it's a really great way to engage with members of the public in a more casual informal way there's stations that will be set up around the room that you can learn more about what we're doing at the cra and this particular one we've invited the business on the northwest southwest fifth avenue so you can come and have a meet and greet so hopefully we'll have a lot of them there but we wanted to focus this really on fifth avenue and getting to know the people that are business there on fifth so please come and join us if you can that'll be next thursday from five to seven and that's all i have thank you thank you to our attorney any comments thank you to the board mayor carney no thank you miss burns no mr market no thank you miss mollica nothing for me okay well i would just say thank you again to our staff and i wanted to say uh miss uh our executive director's evaluation was sent to all of us and we should get that in as quickly as possible and thank you mr duty it's lovely seeing you um have
