“I'd like to thank the chairman for asking the questions that I was going to ask. I do believe that we need to give the city, staff, code enforcement all the tools necessary to make sure that our neighborhoods are safe and do not have problems that have happened in other jurisdictions and cities. I think that this amendment is a very positive step forward and I support it tremendously.”

“Peter, I have one question. And it's similar to all the ones I ask you. You've got a diesel generator. Have you thought about using something that does not create the toxic fumes that periodically will be let out by that generator on a certain you know, scheduled operating time?”

“Again, I'd like to compliment you on the choice of location. Given my age, I'll probably want to have a membership there for probably everything that you'd offer. Going through your operational plan and your scheduling, I'm very confident that with the conditions of approval that this facility will run as you have indicated. And I don't believe that we would have any question as to the parking, as to the usage, the maximum number of employees. If there are complaints, I'm sure code enforcement will be knocking on your door. But other than that, I'm very pleased to have this type of business…”

“Thank you, Mr. Chairman. A couple of things that I wanted to talk about was I do wish that we were getting a 50% increase in the housing bonus. That would have meant we would have more low and very low units. I agree that we need to have a workplace workforce location. Now, I understand the dynamics of the profitability of a project, the cost of this project, but I would ask the applicant to look into the potential of increasing the affordable units. I've got a question relating to a couple comments The applicant is reserving the option to file a condominium plan or track map for the project…”

“Okay. That answers my question on that. I've got to commend Architects Orange and the design staff for probably one of the best looking projects that I've seen in a long time. The utilization of the property is extremely well thought out. I know there's elevation changes. You're asking for various waivers because of some of the physical and limitations of the design. I think that from an architectural standpoint, we've got a very good project. The map that we're approving, I do have a question Is this vesting map eliminating lot lines and easements? Are we putting a new map over and…”
