Description/Analysis
Issue Detail: The Housing Authority owns a vacant parcel at 4501 9th Avenue (formerly known as Donner Field), which is adjacent to a charter school operated by the Fortune School of Education (Fortune School). The site was originally acquired by the Redevelopment Agency in 1986 for housing purposes and was transferred to the Housing Authority in 2012 when redevelopment was eliminated. On September 1, 2012, the Housing Authority and the Fortune School executed a one-year lease with three one-year extensions for the Donner Field site. Since that time, Fortune School has operated the Ephraim Williams College Preparatory Middle School in the adjacent building, and uses the parcel (1.23 acres) for outdoor recreation. In return, Fortune School has maintained, secured, and insured the parcel during the term of the lease. The original lease expired on August 31, 2016, and a subsequent lease was executed which expired on October 31, 2017. Since that time, Fortune School has been using the property under various use permits. The current use permit expires on December 31, 2019.
