Not sure how the cap came into being, but the question, "Got water?" comes to mind.


Rescinds limit of 69,333 set by council in ’89
By Roger Phelps
With little fanfare, Folsom officials have shelved a little-known population cap for the city established in 1989.

City Council members of the time set a population cap of 69,333 residents.

“The exact reasoning behind this resolution is unknown, due to a lack of sufficient legislative history,” wrote David Miller, community development director, in a report to council members. “However, the cap on the city’s population is neither required by law nor mandated by the city’s General Plan.”

“The desirable intensity of development of the city of Folsom consistent with the adopted General Plan is a population cap of 69,333,” the 1989 resolution stated. “This resolution is a statement of purpose and is designed to define the limits of population.”

Council members removed the cap May 13.

“We rescinded the 69,333, but now we need another one,” said City Councilwoman Kerri Howell. “I kind of like a population cap of 99,999.”

Apparently, city officials at the time relied on a per-household population figure of 2.46 persons. Currently, the per-household figure is 2.61.

“In terms of density, the trend for residential single-family development has shifted in the last 20 years from larger-lot, detached structures in the 1980s to more clustered housing developments on smaller lots with a larger common open space,” Miller wrote.

Residents interviewed tended to be leery of the move to remove the cap.

“Folsom already is too crowded,” said Sherry Holsten, a 24-year resident. “Too many houses, too much traffic.”

Michael Simon said, “With all the growth, I guess they’re planning more. But, I don’t plan on moving. I’ve been here 15 years in July. I like it that I don’t have to go to Sacramento to buy things.”

“I thought they weren’t going to build anymore -- that Elliott Homes was the last one,” said Jackie Cook, a five-year resident

More modifications? I wondered why they hadn't started yet...

Looks like the bank wants to take a name off the list before they'll lend.

If approved the new execution date will be June 17th.

Do you think this indicates the bank thinks they don't want the risk?

[mylo]

Do you think this indicates the bank thinks they don't want the risk?

But they're willing to lend the same cash, but with less people "on the line".

Either way, I'm just happy to see it's getting built! I can't watch the video right now, did it go through?

[4thgenFolsomite]

I can't watch the video right now, did it go through?

I only caught part of the city budget discussion on the rebroadcast last night, so I don't know if it went through. sorry!

no volume for me either.

I do remember seeing the city manager offer to review the budget and get back to the council with recommendations. They didn't seem too eager to respond to that though. Not sure what's up, but I have heard there have been significant layoffs/reassignments at City Hall.

I listened. It passed. Quickly.
