CA New eComment for Regular Meeting of the City Council/Closed Session-4:30 pm/Regular Meeting-6:00 pm Michael Luebbers submitted a new eComment. Meeting: Regular Meeting of the City Council/Closed Session-4:30 pm/Regular Meeting-6:00 pm Item: 12. FIRST AMENDMENT TO DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT 2022-0002 — THE JESSUP AT 17802 — 17842 IRVINE BOULEVARD A request for the first amendment to Development Agreement 2022-0002, an agreement between the City of Tustin and Tustin 40 Development LLC (Property Owner) for "The Jessup" residential project. The proposed amendment is a request to eliminate the Property Owner's requirement to pay the Voluntary Workforce Housing Incentive Program In -Lieu Fee ("In -Lieu Fee"). On July 9, 2024, the City of Tustin Planning Commission held a public hearing on the proposed request and adopted Resolution No. 4492, recommending that the City Council adopt Ordinance No. 1544, approving the first amendment to Development Agreement 2022-0002. On September 17, 2024, the City Council held a public hearing to consider the Property Owner's requested amendment to Development Agreement 2022-0002. The City Council's motion failed due to a 2-2-1 vote (Attachment 3). The Property Owner is now requesting that the City Council reconsider the matter and adopt Ordinance 1564, approving first amendment to Development Agreement 2022-0002 (Attachment 4). eComment: As a resident of Tustin I support affordable housing. I also believe that once a compact is agreed to, it should be respected. I oppose the developer's motion to not pay the sum he agreed to as a condition of approval of its project. I think granting this appeal would set a dangerous precedent. All developers who have either built affordable units or paid a sum in lieu of building affordable units would logically be entitled to get compensation for the affordable units they did build or for the monetary amount they paid in lieu of same. Further, if any other laws are modified that affect Tustin, those affected by such laws would logically be entitled to a redo or a new day in court. Thank you, Michael Luebbers, Tustin resident View and Analyze eComments This email was sent from httos://tustin.aranicusideas.com. Unsubscribe from future mailings
