Councilman Pearson objected. (Mayor Wheatley announced a recess to Executive Session for the purpose of discussing litigation frorn 9:.0 to 9:35 p. rn. ) Lytton School Building (CMR:790:1) Councilman Norton reviewed the proposal of Community Housing, Inc. , dated May 5, 1971 which further supplements their offer to purchase the Lytton School property outright for $455,000 with the proposal that at the conclusion of the mortgage payments, the City of Palo Alto have the alternative of (1) accepting payment of $300, 000 over the period of three years as originally proposed or (2) acquiring the entire prop- erty with improvements for the nominal surn of $1.00 plus whatever title and closing expenses might he incurred. MOTION.: Councilman Norton moved, on behalf of the Finance Com- mittee: a. that the City Attorney be directed to draft a contract which incorporates the proposal of Community Housing, Inc. dated May 5, 197!, Discussion as to how it could be assured that the proposed housing would be contz'olled insofar as assignment of unite to the elderly ensued and it was stated that the mode of financing from the Federal Government would include this assurance. Marshall Virello, President, Community Housing Inc., P. 4. Box 1160, Palo Alto, explained that it would be their aim to provide a project to serve the needs of Palo Alto and Palo Altana. He stated they were concerned with people no longer able to afford to rent, particularly in the downtown area of Palo Alto. Mr. Virelio noted, however, that th e e would be no definite grounds for refusing an applicant from another city. 87 5/17/71 City Attorney Stone said it is true that the Department of Housing and Urban Development_does not allow inclusion of the requirement that a person be a resident of Palo Alto hefore he may be successful in his application to live in a project such as the one proposed by Com- munity Housing, Inc., This is also true in respect to case law on residency requirements for the use of Federal funds. It does not mean, however, that the elderly in Palo Alto would not be given first opportunity to become residents of apartments such as this because HUD realizes that this project is being built for this specific reason. In response to further questions, City Attorney Stone stated that the City would assume that the validity o; the contract would depend upon the granting of a P -C zoning which would be applied for by Community Housing Inc., therefore the contract would not be in effect until the zoning has been definitely obtained. He said many of the concerns raised could be handled at the Council level at the time of granting the P -C zoning, but this would not prevent certain conditions being included in the contract. The motion directing the City Attorney to draft a contract which in- corporates the proposal of Community Housing Inc. , dated May 5, 1971, was approved unanimously on a voice vote. MOTION: Councilman Norton, do behalf of the Finance Committee, moved that the Council refer to the Planning Com.mission the sub- ject of land use and F -C development for the Lytton School site: AMi:NDMENT: Councilman Norton moved; seconded by Fserwald, to add the words "particularly with respect to the question of proper density". Mayor Wheatley recognized Mr. E. M. Schraffren, consultant re- presenting Community Housing, Inc., Mr. Schraffren said it is to the city's advantage as well as Com- munity Housing Inc. 's to be able to submit a feasibility application as soon as possible. In order to pubinit this application it is nec- essary for Community Housing Inc. to have: aj land control and b) an indication that a project of the size proposed is acceptable to the City. Mr. Schraffren said it was his judgment that if the pro- posed rontract specifies that a project of ZZO units is encouraged, that the land would then be sold for ZZO units, subject to granting of the P -C application. Community Housing inc., would then prn- ceed with the hill scale P -C zone application proceedings, but at the same time would be in a position to submit a complete applica- tion to HUD for funding. He said they hoped that the models and slides which had been prepared and shown to the Council at a pre- vious meeting had indicated that to develop this site with ZZO units would be entirely in keeping with the community standards in terms of low land coverage. They did not wish to proceed further with detailed plans before the P -C proceedings are commenced. 88 . 5/17/71 In response to questions, Director of P1enning and Community De- velopment Fourcroy recommended the Attorney be requested to draw up a conti act which would include the condition that the main con- tract be subject to the proper zoning being obtained. The exact number of units should be specified in this contract. He further recommended that the applicants be inept::ucted to proceed with the standard zoning application procedure with their plans and that the Planning Commission not be consulted prior to the application con- ing before them. City Manager Morgan pointed out that the Council could, if they so desired, request the Planning Commission to consider the zoning for thin site and what densities night be most appropriate. He in- dicated that the Council should reply in a policy vein to the recom- mendation of the Finance Committee. Following discussion, City Attorney Stone noted that the matter of the number of units could be handled by his office and confirmed that the number of tanits would he included in the contract he had been directed to draft.
