EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On October 2, 2018, the City Council approved a Fifth Amendment to the Site A Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) with Alameda Point Partners (APP), for a 68-acre area within Alameda Point.

The requested action would reallocate the funds as follows: $4.5 million for the senior project and $500,000 for the family project. The requested change is financially neutral for both housing projects and has no fiscal impact on the City.
