City Attorney Vincent Biondo recounted the history of
this project and Council's approval of the higher
density to encourage apartments. Mr. Biondo added
this project had gone forward with a 3 to 2 vote
strictly on the condition that it would be a rental
project with 25 percent for low and moderate income.

and staff does have concerns about the density of 30 to
40 units in that area, due to the parking and traffic
problems.
