There’s a big discrepancy across racial groups in terms of the median household income, and yet, you know, MIH forces us to, like, think about One, everything, as you know, in one way.Juan Camilo OsorioCommissioner · City Planning Commission · Aug 24, 2026Open the meeting at 1:07:21

    My question is really, if we were increasing the residential FAR by any other mechanism, they would be required to provide some affordable housing. And the affordable housing, the permanent affordable housing, is so much more expensive than the transit improvement. I’m just wondering how we balance those 2, those goals?Gail BenjaminCommissioner · City Planning Commission · Jun 1, 2026Open the meeting at 1:21:14
  • And it sounds like the UC-1, at least, which is most of that additional, couldn’t be built on, and also is a visual corridor requirement. So, is that really additional open space?Raju MannCommissioner · City Planning Commission · Dec 15, 2025 1:07:40Open the meeting at 1:07:40
