The committee backed technical updates to the Solid Waste Services ordinance, including clearer rules for different housing types and business service eligibility. It also recommended using $4,131,000 from housing funding sources to buy a 1.25-acre site for a proposed affordable housing project expected to yield about 145 units, though the exact count is still to be determined. One member wanted firmer commitments on how many units would be affordable and at what income levels, including 30% of area median income. The committee also reviewed proposed housing finance ideas that would tie public support to new mixed-income development and help reduce displacement near transit projects.
