Review, discuss, and provide direction in the following areas: Immediate Next Steps:
Transition the land use concepts from the Vision Plan to the Planning Department and initiate environmental analysis, entitlements, and regulatory requirements;
Direct staff to continue to develop and recommend financing mechanisms for developing the 710 Stub area;
Direct that the 710 Stub area become the City's first sustainable, resilient and carbon neutral district;
Initiate work on options for City Council consideration of a governance structure to guide the development of the area;
Acknowledge past harms to former residents, businesses and institutions required to vacate the relinquishment and surrounding area to clear the path for the freeway construction;
Consider and/or further research all targets, goals, and programs delineated in the Restorative Justice Framework of the Vision Plan report as part of consideration of a Citywide approach to restorative justice. This includes the draft definition of restorative justice, targets for affordable housing, the creation of a community oversight committee, a community benefits planning framework, policies for wealth generation through home and business ownership, business development support, workforce development, and other public benefits through Restorative Justice;
Land Use:
Set a goal of developing a minimum of 1,800 residential units in the relinquishment area. This will include a mix of units for ownership and rentals of varying affordability and size;
Mobility, Access and Reconnection:
To advance reconnection, accessibility, multi-modal and active transportation, and community safety, include the Boulevard and Paseos street and access concept as the working option to carry forward in the land use entitlement process (item "a" above);
Direct staff to continue to work in partnership with Caltrans regarding the transition of the existing freeway-to-freeway to a local-to-freeway/freeway-to-local access system, as well as in the creation of Transit Mobility Hub on Caltrans property in the area immediately north of and connected to the relinquishment area;
Direct staff to continue to work with Caltrans to identify a new location for the stormwater facility located in the southern portion of the relinquishment area; and
Continue to grow existing partnerships – and seek new partnerships – with public, private, and non-profit agencies and entities that enhance the delivery of positive outcomes from the relinquishment area for the City of Pasadena and its residents and businesses.
