Councilmember Salas asked Mr. Dominguez if he is interested in moving forward with this discussion with other neighborhoods. He stated the League of Neighborhoods is inactive at the moment, but he would be interested in re-instating it. He says that the absentee landlords are usually not interested in joining discussions due to them not seeing the issues on a daily basis like residents do.

Ms. Deborah Harris addressed Mayor and Council and stated that she was a part of the Southside Community Association when they formed the League of Neighborhoods and they started discussing this fifteen years ago. She is supportive of a property maintenance ordinance.
Councilmember McCarthy stated that the reason this did not get anywhere previously was that it was perceived that this would be like a nanny-state. He stated that he supports moving this forward, but that it cannot be done in a way that provides for a nanny-state.
Councilmember Salas stated that she would like to see the item move forward and would like to involve the League of Neighborhoods and if some of the conversation could occur in a few weeks in conjunction with the League of Neighborhoods update.
Councilmember Odegaard also spoke about the past discussions of overreach of a Property Maintenance Ordinance. He would like to see this item move forward.
Mr. Clifton stated that at least two of the three neighborhoods in the League will be at the update and that staff can add this discussion to that meeting.
Mayor Evans stated this discussion has been ongoing since at least 2008 and there are tools to address this. The neighborhoods are bringing up issues that affect quality of life and health and safety.
The Council was in favor of moving this forward.

Discussion and Consideration for future action of an emergency resolution declaring a housing crisis in Flagstaff
Housing Director Sarah Darr provided a presentation to Mayor and Council on a draft Housing Crisis Resolution in response to a Citizen’s Petition.
Slides Included:
Councilmember Aslan added that he has concerns about the confluence of this matter with the Climate Emergency declared that summer. He is concerned about priorities. He stated that he does not believe that the City is in the position to declare another emergency. However, he stated that he believes that the City can tackle both problems.
City Attorney Solomon stated that the Climate Emergency Resolution does contain the word “emergency” and clarified that the Housing Resolution does not have the same designation.
Ms. Darr highlighted the language contained in the resolution. Housing staff did talk to Sustainability staff on how both resolutions could work together.
Councilmember Odegaard stated that he does not see a conflict in the two resolutions.
Councilmember McCarthy proposed an amendment to the draft resolution. He suggested adding a new sentence in Section 2 preceding the plan elements that reads:
“The plan elements will also include ways the City can encourage more housing construction by the private sector, especially for reasonably-priced housing, and more occupancy by local residents.”
Vice Mayor Shimoni thanks everyone working hard to get people into housing. He sees this as a crisis/emergency and the status quo is not working. If it continues we will become the next Aspen or Vail and that is not the Flagstaff that is envisioned.
Councilmember Whelan stated that she is interested in hearing specifics on how the two emergencies would push up against each other. She stated that she believes the housing crisis is an emergency.
Councilmember Aslan stated that he would not be in favor of the resolution if it includes Councilmember McCarthy’s new language.
Councilmember Salas does not care for the verbiage, but there is obviously a need to address housing. She does not believe declaring a housing crisis is not mutually exclusive with the climate emergency. They are interdependent. She would like to see this move forward.
Councilmember Aslan clarifies that he does not believe that the housing crisis and the climate crisis are mutually exclusive. But he thinks the solutions to these problems carry conflicting issues.
A break was held from 6:57 pm Break through 7:10 pm.
Mayor Evans stated that she is an advocate for affordable housing. Mayor Evans stated there has been 11 plans to address affordable housing. She asked Ms. Darr about the 2,070 families that are on the waiting list for affordable housing and what is the longest time a family has waited on the list. Ms. Darr stated that it has been many years. There is a gentleman that has been waiting for a one-bedroom apartment for about ten years. Mayor Evan feels that the community has become apathetic to the issue of affordable housing. It is an emergency for the 40% who are cost burdened. She defines Sustainability as programs, initiatives, and actions that are aimed at the preservation of a particular resource. Sustainability refers to four areas: social, economic, environment, and human. She feels that environment has been championed in Flagstaff, but we have failed at the human aspect. She agreed with the added verbiage from Councilmember McCarthy.
Vice Mayor Shimoni stated support and that he supports Councilmember McCarthy’s edit.
Councilmember Aslan is not supportive due to the overuse of emergency declarations. He does not inherently disagree with the necessities in the resolution.
Councilmember Salas and Councilmember Whelan noted their support.
The Resolution will come back to Council next week and an executive session will be added to the calendar.
