Oak tree removal for Oak Road development
The 60-unit Oak Road project requires removing 52 of 53 mature trees, including five valley oaks — one possibly 300 years old. Commissioners and residents clashed over whether the city's tree ordinance has any teeth. The commission forwarded the project with a request that staff try to preserve the trees.
Attainable homeownership and housing affordability
The Oak Road project includes three very low-income units priced around $130,000, aimed at buyers shut out of the market. Supporters called it a rare affordable ownership product; the city is far behind its state housing goals in this category.
