Motion
ITEM:
Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding waiver of city fees associated with construction of a house the proceeds of which will be used towards a domestic violence safe house in the City of San Luis, Arizona. (Augustin Tumbaga, Jr., Director of the Non-Profit, Pueblo Housing and Community Development)
SUMMARY:
Vice Mayor Maria Cecilia Ramos has worked towards bringing a safe house for protecting domestic violence victims to the City of San Luis. She brought to staff's attention the non-profit Pueblo Housing and Community Development's project to construct a house and sell it with 100 per cent of the profit from the sale going toward funding the construction of a domestic violence safe house in the City of San Luis, Arizona.
Pueblo Housing and Community Development has been obtaining materials and services at cost or near cost to increase funds available from the sale of the house in order to construct the safe house. As part of that effort, Pueblo Housing and Community Development requests a waiver of city fees associated with the fund-raising house's construction.
A contract is proposed at the request of Pueblo Housing and Community Development. Under the contract, if the safe house is not constructed within the next 5 years, then the fees would be paid to the city. Staff has estimated the maximum cost of city fees would be $8,500.00 and so the contract caps the waiver at that amount.
