<br /> Joy Johnson, Chair of the Housing Advisory Committee, stated that there is a housing investor <br />who fixes up homes and rents them to people in the neighborhood affordably, and she wonders <br />why others cannot do the same. She referred to a comment about homes being lost because of deaths and replied that developers are taking advantage of lower income neighborhood situations to purchase properties. She stated that there needs to be a policy that says to developers to respect existing neighborhoods, and that development around low-income neighborhoods is <br />causing tax hardship for residents. <br /> City Manager Sam Sanders confirmed next steps for the HAC to bring further recommendation. Mr. Stroman stated that a key deadline would be when the Planning Commission will issue its recommendations to City Council. To incorporate HAC recommendations, the recommendations <br />will need to come to City Council within the next couple of weeks in order to meet an <br />advertising deadline. The meeting adjourned at 8:22 p.m. <br />BY Order of City Council BY Kyna Thomas, Clerk of Council <br /> <br />Page 48 of 171
