Council MemberIDirector Leipzig said, "I wish this audience had been able to meet my friend, Tom McClintock,... who is now a state assemblyman... and trying to eliminate Redevelopment Agencies in California." Council MemberIDirector Leipzig - said he found the comment that assessed valuations in the proposed area had declined over the last fiscal year very, very difficult to believe. He said no action would be taken at this meeting, but "I have my own particular opinion. I think it would be an easier sale to the public, and this is to my colleagues and to the staff, if we took care of some of the real blight problems in this City, particularly neighborhoods, other areas that are in existing Redevelopment Areas, before we go into a new area and continually grow the Redevelopment Agency. It is not a comment on Mr. Church, and the governmental process, because there are strings attached." Council MemberIDirector Leipzig discussed the requirement to include 15% low to moderate income units in any housing development, and said, "I think we have enough in Redwood City. That's a fact we have to pay attention to. We'll get back to it on the 22nd." Director Church said staff would provide data regarding assessed valuations, by Areas, and the other issues raised at this meeting, to the CouncillBoard before June 22.
