圣迭戈「Midway Rising」过委员会关：2,000套保障房须全部建在体育馆原地块 融资区方案一并送全会
圣迭戈——位于加州圣迭戈县的San Diego市，据《圣迭戈时报》10 月 17 日报道，被称为加州史上最大保障性住房项目的「Midway Rising」重建计划，已获圣迭戈市议会土地使用与住房委员会通过，将在未来数周内送交市议会全会作最终表决。该计划拟重建市属的 48.5 英亩体育馆（Sports Arena）地块，开发商为亿万富翁斯坦·克伦克（Stan Kroenke）。
委员会 10 月 16 日的表决附带了委员们关切的修改要求。约 50 名居民在公众评论环节发言：支持者称赞项目带来的住房与就业，反对者则集中于环境隐患与地块的洪水风险，并有人以市政府过往的房地产失误为例，质疑这笔交易对市府不利。据《圣迭戈之声》（Voice of San Diego）报道，委员会的关切集中于开发处置协议（Development Disposition Agreement）中缺失的一段文字——该条款要求 2,000 套保障性住房全部建在原地块之内、不得计入周边项目。市议员 Kent Lee表示：「我坚信，确保我们对 Midway 的愿景——通过这个项目真正产出新的保障性住房——得到实现，符合本市的最佳利益。」同委员会的肖恩·埃洛-里维拉（Sean Elo-Rivera）、薇薇安·莫雷诺（Vivian Moreno）与斯蒂芬·惠特本（Stephen Whitburn）均表赞同，并指示市府人员就协议缺失文字进行核查。
关于环境隐患，埃洛-里维拉表示，体育馆地块「基本上是化学物质与毒素污染我们的河流、海滩与海湾的一条快车道」，重建后将配备现代化系统收集并净化径流，「从基础设施的角度看，这是一个胜利」。
委员会在同次会议上还表决同意设立强化基础设施融资区（Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District），以该区域新增的房地产税收入偿还开发商的基础设施投入。圣迭戈市独立预算分析师办公室估计，克伦克 4.6 亿美元的基础设施投资中，最高可获偿还 3.78 亿美元。融资区方案将先送市议会、再送县政府作最终批准；市议会预计在未来数周内就「Midway Rising」整体计划进行表决。
San Diego Committee Advances Midway Rising: All 2,000 Affordable Homes Must Be Built on the Sports Arena Site
San Diego — San Diego is a city in San Diego County, California. The Midway Rising redevelopment, described as the largest affordable housing project in California history, is headed to the San Diego City Council for a final vote in the coming weeks after the council's Land Use and Housing Committee voted on October 16 to move it forward, the Times of San Diego reported on October 17. The plan would redevelop the 48.5-acre, city-owned Sports Arena property, with billionaire developer Stan Kroenke's team behind the project.
About 50 residents spoke during public comment. Supporters praised the number of housing units and the jobs the project brings, while opponents focused on environmental hazards and the site's potential for flooding, with many also citing the city's past real estate blunders as evidence of a potential bad deal. The four committee members' own concerns centered on an excerpt missing from the Development Disposition Agreement, which requires that all 2,000 affordable housing units be built on the site and not counted in surrounding projects, as reported by Voice of San Diego. "I strongly believe that it's in the city's best interest to ensure that our vision for Midway to produce new affordable units is actually met," Councilmember Kent Lee said. Committee members Sean Elo- Rivera, Vivian Moreno and Stephen Whitburn agreed and directed staff to look into the missing language.
On the environmental hazards, Elo-Rivera said redevelopment would benefit the whole community: "The Sports Arena site is basically a fast lane for chemicals and toxins to pollute our rivers, beaches, and bays. What we will have is a modern system that will capture and clean runoff, and will make the entire city healthier. That's a win, especially from an infrastructure perspective."
After voting to move Midway Rising to the full council with the affordable-housing change, the committee also voted in favor of establishing an Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District to reimburse Kroenke for new infrastructure, using property tax revenues generated within the project area. The city's Office of the Independent Budget Analyst estimates the developer could be reimbursed up to $378 million of his $460 million infrastructure investment. The financing-district vote will go to the city council and then to the county for final approval, and the council is expected to vote on Midway Rising in the coming weeks.
