My leadership skills and your ability to work with others.
Last April, when the Council was discussing residential units on the 68 acre lot now referred to as site A, the members were divided on the number of high-density units required to have a healthy residential-commercial mixed-use environment. After a careful analysis of the situation and the impacts of several options, I proposed an 800-unit ceiling and a $50,000 surcharge above and beyond the ceiling. My objective was to provide a balance of commercial and residential units throughout Alameda Point. I was able to relay and explain my ideas successfully, leading the Council to accept and approve my proposal. I am the only council member who has introduced three resolutions, of which all three, including a resolution to protect open space/ a nature reserve, were unanimously approved by the City Council.
