Why This Vote Matters

The council voted 4-2 to extend a land sale deadline for Point Molate development until April 2011, with Butt and McLaughlin voting no. The developer, Upstream Point Molate LLC, will continue paying the city $90,000 per month while they work toward completing the purchase. The extension also requires staff to include community outreach for alternative project ideas and incorporate changes requested by the Point Molate Committee. This vote was notably divided compared to most contract decisions, where these council members typically vote together.
