Issue additional clarifications for Point Molate housing development proposals

Substitute motion to keep the existing request for proposals and send to the original larger list of companies originally contacted, along with a comprehensive Point Molate vision and include the following provisions: request that the master developers respondents incorporate concepts into the alternative plan by proposing that the development contains no housing on Drum Lot 2; includes a mix of affordable housing with goals of 2/3 to be moderate to low income; includes an evacuation plan and a transportation plan that describes approaches to bringing bus services; insure that infrastructure costs are self-funded with no additional costs to Richmond taxpayers and includes no bonds backed by the City and also includes former Councilmember Recinos stipulations and suggestions regarding the evaluation criteria

To approve the staff report to extend the filing date to February 4, 2019, with the following additional clarifications: There is no restriction on use of Drum Lot 2, although respondents should explain why they need to propose housing or other uses there. There is no prescriptive requirement for affordable housing other than that under our inclusionary zoning ordinance, although respondents should explain how they determined their proposed affordable housing obligation. There is no upper limit on the number of housing units, although exceeding 1,100 would trigger more intense CEQA scrutiny. The City will support infrastructure financing strategies, such as Mello-Roos, Enhanced Infrastructure Financing Districts and others that do not obligate the general fund. There is no prescriptive requirement for a shuttle; just a discussion of a shuttle or other transportation options that do not involve privately owned vehicles and how that might be handled. Keep the evaluation criteria as is in addendum No. 1 with the addition of the following: Quality and creativeness of the proposed plan and design; proposed sales revenue and subsequent tax revenue accruing to the City; and number and type of jobs to be created
