in a combined affordable housing project to satisfy the inclusionary housing
requirement for the Farber Jefferson Street Condominiums will provide two (2)

and priorities as expressed in the Housing Element and the Consolidated Plan.

Commission on September 1 1, 2003, the Housing Commission hereby ADOPTS
