A resident asked the Planning Commission for an update on Paradise Estates during the meeting’s non‑agenda public comment period, saying news reports and an earlier ground‑breaking suggested dozens of houses would be built quickly but that as of the meeting “there's been 6 houses started. About 1 of them, as far as I know, has been completed.”

City planning staff response
City planner Eric Schrader replied that he was aware the project is progressing more slowly than originally expected but that staff did not have details on the developer’s timeline. Schrader said he would contact Noel Anderson, the Community Planning and Development director, and the developer (identified in public comment as Corey) and promised to pass an update back to the neighborhood.

"We'll reach out to Noel Anderson and maybe we can reach out to the developer and see if we can get some sort of update that we can pass along to the neighborhood," Eric Schrader responded.

Ending
Staff committed to seeking a status update from the director and developer and to provide that information to the resident and neighborhood contact who requested it.
