Ramirez, Deputy City Clerk. REPORTS OF OFFICERS DISPOSITION AND DEVELOPMENT Attorney Alvarez-Glasman stated that the purpose of AGREEMENT WITH BALDWIN PARK this study session is to allow Council/Agency members SENIOR HOUSING APARTMENTS the opportunity for the developer and staff to provide KAUFMAN & BROAD information and additional explanation as the Council/Agency deems appropriate. Kevin Payne, Senior Vice President of Kaufman Broad opened by stating that his company has addressed the many concerns that have been raised by both neighboring businesses and Coundl members. Kaufman Broad has conducted an aggressive outreach campaign for the purpose of providing information and answering questions of concern to neighboring businesses and residents. Kaufman Broad is committed to making this a state of the art facility, one that will make the City of Baldwin Park proud to have in the community. Councilwoman Gair acknowledged the outreach campaign that Kaufman Broad had initiated, however feels that the campaign did not begin when it was initially requested by Council. Mayor Pro Tern Van Cleave stated that he had the opportunity to visit a Kaufman Broad project and was extremely satisfied with the quality and aesthetics of Kaufman Broad's project. It is obvious that a question of parking already exists, and if we consider a use other than this proposed senior housing development, the parking problem will be disastrous. The best use for this property is the proposed Kaufman Broad development.
