2. STATUS REPORT: GARVEY SENIOR HOUSING TENANT SELECTION
PROCESS
Steve Copenhaver, GRC Consultant, stated that the housing units will be completed on
Monday, October 28 Mr. Copenhaver explained that the Levine Management Company has
gone through the first grouping of 135 seniors, inviting them to submit a complete application.
They were interviewed and certain materials were requested as needed. Of that group, there are
approximately 50 that qualified, pending the last field check presently underway.
Director Taylor asked how many have actually qualified.
Mr. Copenhaver replied that all of the 50 have met citizenship and income requirements,
and the Tax Assessor's Roll of last known addresses. Mr. Copenhaver continued that a few more
applicants are being physically checked that are not showing up on the Assessor's Roll. The
next grouping of 50 applications from July 2, 2001 on will go through the same process. Mr.
Copenhaver stated that out of that list, they are hoping to qualify another 20 or 22 applicants.
The building will then be filled. Mr. Copenhaver continued that should they not get enough
qualified applicants, then they will process the next grouping of 50 applications. Mr.
Copenhaver stated that the qualified applicants will begin to be moved in by floor, hopefully by
the second week of November, and that they will not wait until all 72 applicants are qualified.
President Bruesch asked if the completion will coincide with the punch list.
Mr. Copenhaver replied that any items that would prevent occupancy have already been
taken care of, or will have by October 28 Mr. Copenhaver added that a security system will be
installed, which will not prevent the start of the use of the buildings.
Director Taylor asked when the security system will be completed?

Mr. Copenhaver replied that a simple system needs to be selected and approved.
Director Taylor stated that the concern is that the buildings will be occupied soon. What
security will be present to monitor any activities?
Mr. Copenhaver stated that there is not any camera security yet, and that 24 -hour guard
services are currently on the premises.
Director Clark asked that the security guard remain until the camera system is installed.
Mr. Copenhaver replied that a security camera system will not be difficult to install as
everything is pre- wired. Mr. Copenhaver explained that there will not be a staff security person
hired just to monitor the screens all day.
Director Taylor asked how will the screens be periodically monitored?
Mr. Copenhaver replied that the computer screens will be at the front desk, enabling staff
to periodically monitor the screens.
President Bruesch thanked GRC and staff for the meticulous method of checking the
applications. Mr. Bruesch stated that he would rather err on the side of caution to make sure that
everyone qualifies fairly for the units. Mr. Bruesch asked about the plans for a ribbon cutting
ceremony.
Bill Crowe, City Manager, replied that a date will be set once the Community Center has
been occupied for at least one month, and the seniors are housed. Mr. Crowe stated that perhaps
by December or January.
There being no further comments, this item was received and filed.
