Chair Majerus likes a combination of the alterna tives such as B., C. and H. and that the HRA should ask the Council to direct the HRA to establish a Citizen Advisory Group. Member Kelsey noted that Alternative A. s hould be included so that the HRA can provide funding for additional support to implement th e maintenance code if needed for it to be successful. Member Bean said the HRA should focus on A lternative B. and make a recommendation from that to the City Council as soon as possible. Motion: Chair Majerus moved, seconded by Member Bean, to recommend the following to the City Council and discuss the recommendations with the City Council on March 20, 2006. • Delay in action on the establishment of a rental licensing program to more fully evaluate the affects of th e Council adopted Roseville H ousing Maintenance Code. • Reallocate the HRA budget for rental licensing to fund necessary contracted inspection staff to successfully help address the increase in code compliance generated by the Housing Maintenance Code. • Establish a Citizen Advisory Group to mo re fully review and study the issues associated with rental properties incl uding the review of Roseville’s draft ordinance, evaluation of data and compla ints, and seek additional public comment from neighbors living next to rental hous ing, people living in rental housing and landlords. • Participate in the Council visioning proce ss regarding housing issues in Roseville. The housing component of the visioning process would address affordability, neighborhood balance, life cycle housing, and diversity. Subjects to study and address could include neighborhood changes, lot size standard s, redevelopment standards, infill development, design standards, open space, etc. Ayes: 6 Nays: 0 Motion carried. c. Adoption of 2006 Work Plan and Priority Action Steps (HF0041) Executive Director Bennett noted that the HRA Fina nce Subcommittee met to review the priority action steps against budget resources and a modified 2006 priority action steps has been prepared for HRA review and discussion. Member Kelsey noted that the finance subcomm ittee had a discussion regarding the use of levy funds allocated to the rental housing if th e program was not implemented and is seeking Council’s support to use the funding for suppor t of the housing maintenance code and help supplement a Citizen Advisory Group as well as a broader housing visioning process and that this allocation of priorities reflect that change.
