• While toxics are being cleaned up, County has a community planning process
(paid for by public health grant, run through local non profit) to clarify
community desire (beyond the Urban Vision Plan) for site prior to sale to clarify
conditions of sale.
• County tries to find a developer partner without having any financial incentives
to sweeten the pot.
• Developer works with community to come up with a plan that fits the Urban
Vision Plan and more detailed community planning process.
• Developer finds grants/financing to build project.
20. Property is required to be sold by State:
• County removes toxics
• County creates conditions of sale to go with property (through a community
planning process (paid for by public health grant, run through LandPaths or
CAP) to clarify community desire (1 acre square, streets, minimum percent
of affordable housing, etc.)
• Local Roseland community non-profit joint venture could be formed to
purchase site, this entity does a planning & entitlement process and finds
grants to build project: streets and parking laid out, plaza installed by
community volunteers and grants site is subdivided into smaller parcels and
finally, developers purchase these smaller sites that come with clear
expectations, guidelines, build-to lines,
- OR –
• Typical developer finds grants/financing to build project.
