“Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I appreciate the questions and the answers so far. I've got a couple questions for staff first. In condition 3.48 on the... Park approval for the plan. It identifies an in lieu fee of $1.8 million, and that is sort of conflicting with the actual amount of park dedications for a neighborhood.”

“It's page six. I'm looking at the conditions of approval, so I'm looking at page six.”

“The other thing I had for staff was this is a, project in which there's existing structures and site work on and we've got some standard and they're not standard conditions, but the 2.39 through 2.45 I would assume that these conditions were met at the time that I The initial structures were built and the project was developed, and this is calling out for the developer to provide specific services for some of the existing tribes in this”

“Okay, so it doesn't take into consideration that it was already disturbed in the beginning and foundations were built and structures were built on the site?”

“Seems like a little bit of redundancy and extra cost for developing product. Question on the DIVs. We've got an excess accounting for 40-some thousand square feet that is not being used. Who retains that, the ownership of that number? Or how does that work? Can it be sold by the current property owner to somebody else?”

“So KB Homes, when they develop their product and they sell... the individual condominium units, they don't retain that ownership, or do they?”

“Okay. What I'm asking is there is an underutilization of impact values. And I'm trying to understand currently they have a certain number of DIVs.”

“Property is being sold to KB Homes and there is an under use by 43,000 square feet, 44,000 square feet, who retains ownership and are those saleable by the HOA, by KB Homes, or is it retained on the property?”

“What is the value of 43,980 square feet of DIVs? Do we know?”

“Okay, so... there is a benefit right now to KB Homes where they would be able to process the sale of DIVs in which they are the owner. And it would not transfer to the HOA?”

“Okay. That just seems to be an extraordinary benefit to the property owner. I'll go back and rephrase my questions. Obviously, I have to compliment your design team for crossing all the T's and dotting all the I's. You've ended up with a very good project. Question as far as the perimeter walls. What are they made of?”

“Von Karman, right. Are they planted, or is it just going to be existing concrete block wall walls?”

“You know, I still have a major issue with the 50 tu's per acre that we're asking a deviation from. You know, to go down to 23 is a considerable reduction of what we initially agreed to for the IBC. The justification for the deviation is for sale condominiums versus stacked condominiums, not apartments. And we set a minimum of 50 DUs per acre as something that we wanted in the IBC. Now we're going back. Luckily, we have a no net loss condition, but we're still deviating from the 50 DUs per acre that this planning commission had set as a minimum. And the justification, although it is you know,…”

“Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. Tiffany, Nick, thank you very much for such a voluminous presentation tonight. I actually went through and read all of it. I'm not sure I agree with all of it, but Commissioner Grossman and the rest of the commissioners pretty much stole my thunder. I do have a couple of questions. If you could define for me low barrier navigation centers, I'm having a difficult time understanding what that really means.”

“Okay. I just wasn't familiar with the actual definition or the terminology. So I appreciate that. As it relates to the bicycle minimum parking established, can that be overcome by a waiver?”

“Okay, very good. I appreciate the additional need for a concept plan that's been introduced. I think that's a very good measure. I think that's it.”

“I was just going to pair it off of what you just said. In my neighborhood, we did have a home that was owned by an individual that leased out five or six rooms within the house. So it does happen.”

“Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. I've just got a couple questions. I want to commend AC Martin on a phenomenal design. I think it's very striking. I would like to know, what are the building materials on the outside?”

“Another question is, on the mezzanine level, looking at the floor plans, it appears that There are residential projections. Is that a second story? My question is, you've got condensers for the air conditioning systems all around there. And I'm uncertain as to the noise level that could be created at that location.”
