Ms. McGovern believed the City needed to study these programs to find how to make them more successful. Mr. Bocian agreed. Ms. McGovern hoped that this is one of Council's priorities and that it is discussed in the future. Mayor Hosterman declared the public hearing open. There being no speakers, Mayor Hosterman closed the public hearing. It was moved by Mr. Sullivan, seconded by Ma. McGovern, to adopt Resolution 05-025, s resolution approving the allocation of Federal and City funds relative to the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and Home Investment Partnership (HOME) Programs for Fiscal Year 2005 (2005/06) and to direct staff to move forward with some of the issues that have been discussed regarding the silent second mortgages and the construction of the Assisted-Living Facility. The roll call vote was taken as follows: AYES: Councilmembers - Brozosky, McGovern, Sullivan, and Mayor Hosterman NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None Mr. Sullivan thanked the Human Services Commission, Housing Commission and staff for all their hard work. He recognized Tim Sears from GRID Alternatives and congratulated him on the program that is available which provides solar power systems on affordable homes and reduces the utility bills on affordable housing and meets some of the City's energy goals. He indicated that this program meets many of the City's General Plan goals. 6._~b Consideration of Public Restroom Alternatives for the Downtown (SR 05:101) Jerry Iserson, Director of Planning and Community Services, presented the staff report. Mr. Brozosky believed that the last time this was brought to Council, staff was to return to Council with a report outlining potential locations, costs and the length of time it would take to complete the project. He requested clarification of the process. Mr. Fialho mentioned that staff was looking for Council to narrow the options down so that staff could spend constructive time identifying the potential costs. He hoped Council would select one, but no more than two options for staff to bring back to the May 3 meeting for an idea on what a traditional restroom would cost, similar to restrooms located at the Sports Park or Val Vista Park, as well as one that was less permanent, portable in nature, and similar to the restroom facility that is located at Creekside Park. Council could then give direction to staff on which option they would like staff to proceed with. If the City built the restroom at Delucchi Park near West Angela Street, Ms. McGovern asked if it would restrict the construction of a restroom on Neal between First and Railroad. Ms. McGovern indicated that if the City placed restrooms there and that portion was closed, it would allow easier access for families to get to the restrooms at Delucchi at West Angela.
