Attorney

Obtain the amended affordable housing loan agreement for Palo Verde

Why now: Ordinance Enactment No. 034014 passed second reading on September 8, 2026, increasing the incentive to $2,000,000 and appropriating $1,000,000 from the Type B Affordable Housing Fund, but the record shows no amendment terms.

What to do: Pull the executed First Amendment to the loan agreement between the Corpus Christi B Corporation and Corpus Christi Huntwick Avenue LP. Check whether the added $1,000,000 carries new disbursement conditions, affordability covenants, or repayment terms, and whether the agreement was signed after Enactment No. 034014.

Act before: After the next material record update

Ask why senior apartment incentive was pulled, then doubled

Why now: The item was withdrawn by staff and postponed to September 1, passed first reading on consent, then passed second reading 8-0 with Mayor Guajardo abstaining, bringing the total incentive to $2,000,000 for 75 units.

What to do: Request the staff memo or agenda materials explaining why staff withdrew the Palo Verde Senior Apartments incentive increase from the consent agenda on August 25 and what changed before it returned. Also ask why the Mayor abstained, since the public record gives no reason.

Act before: After the requested records are produced
