"People elect us to make decisions that benefit the community. I don't think these two projects benefit the community, as a matter of fact,"

Some councilmembers and residents raised objections about insufficient affordable units and the loss of land valuable for long-term economic development. State housing law Senate Bill 330 limits local ability to delay or block new housing, constraining local decision-making. Federal prosecutors charged former DeNova owners in April after an alleged attempt to influence a councilmember with cash in a coffee thermos related to a different Aviano project. One councilmember proposed delaying decisions to allow further staff review.
