| | 6. | | Resolution authorizing execution and recording of satisfaction to terminate of record a completed, expired, and obsolete Redevelopment Plan.
Minutes note: Mr. Misky stated the Redevelopment Plan for the Solvay Coke property will expire in two days. The plan was adopted twenty years ago to prevent certain uses from being allowed (e.g. junkyard) and to promote other uses (e.g. manufacturing). The site has been redeveloped by Komatsu Mining Corporation with an occupancy permit being issued in late 2022.
Commissioner Galvan asked how close the Komatsu redevelopment aligned with the Plan. Mr. Misky stated the redevelopment was in perfect alignment since the City was promoting manufacturing uses with job generators. Komatsu has 1,000 employees.
Commissioner Charlier asked if coming to the Board was necessary if the Plan was set to expire on its own. Mr. Misky stated each Redevelopment Plan has different language in how to deal with an expiring or obsolete Plan. In this case, staff felt it was important to bring it to the Board to highlight the success of the Plan. In addition, it is prudent to get Board approval when we are recording an instrument (i.e. Plan satisfaction) against the property’s title.
Commissioner West moved for adoption of the resolution and it carried by a vote of 6 ayes - 0 nays. Adopted resolution is No. 10965.
