Solis admitted taking a total of $15,000 from three executives of an unidentified firm in August and September 2015, shortly before and after he supported the zoning change that they requested and shepherded it through the City Council.

"The problem is this other body of government reduced commercial properties by $1 billion and that shifted about four percentage points of the burden on to homeowners "
