Approved 21.17-21.21 with discussion. Santiago Romero wondered why they aren't working with Detroit at Work to offer CDL trainings. The contract they are discussing focuses more on heavy duty specialty equipment rather than CDL certifications.

They don't know how many units will be new and how many preserved.

They don't know how many units will be new and how many preserved.
Their current strategy launching for 2040 is to create 3,000 new units and preserve another 10,000. They estimate the section 108 program can get the city about 1,000 units (a mix of new and preserved units) with the $75 million they're looking to borrow.

Council member Coleman Young II asked how this fits in the overall plan to reduce the housing availability gap.
LeBeau said they see a greater demand for units than they can create, so they're trying to be more aggressive with their development strategy.
