JACKSON: - - - KAY: - -KAY: Maija, we can't hear you. CARR SMITH: Unmute. KAY: You are still muted. JACKSON: Thank you. So I just want to offer one point of clarification. The current housing conditions for Suffolk and Puaa are different. Only the Suffolk ordinance currently requires the 20 percent at 80 percent AMI. The Puaa condition currently does not have that requirement, so if this condition would stay in place as it is, they would just have to comply with the housing code requirements for the Puaa property, which is zoned CN, which they are proposing 100 housing units on it at this time. CARR SMITH: Thank you, Maija. Commissioners? Mr. Van Pernis. VAN PERNIS: Point of clarification—two points, actually. We are treating these two applications as one, so, should the affordable housing apply to both? And secondly, when is this affordable housing supposed to be done; in other words, how long of an extension do they want? Do they want the 25 years, or what? KAY: At this point, Commissioner Van Pernis, they have removed the request for the administrative time extension, and they are asking for a, the timing of the completion of construction is five years to begin construction and ten years to substantially complete construction. We don't have an idea of the definition of substantial completeness, it's, so there could be some subjective interpretations of what that might mean, so it would be good to nail that down. And secondly, there is a condition in the Puaa, the commercial zone property that ties the requirement of the provision of housing, not necessarily affordable housing, outside of these housing code requirement,prior to certificate of occupancy for any of the commercial; so I believe its 50 units need to be under construction and then need to be essentially bonded to complete construction prior to CO for any portion of the commercial, and then if it goes beyond a certain square footage of commercial, then another 50 units would need to meet that same requirement. The timing requirement for Suffolk would be, you know, have to do with the five years to start, ten years to complete, as substantially represented within that ten years. Anything beyond that would then have to come back to the Planning Commission and County Council for additional time if necessary, as is, as is proposed by the applicant. To your question as to, or your thought about how this is being treated as one project, we kind of have been doing that, but to be clear, these are two separate ordinances that have conditions, on each of those ordinances that the applicant is asking you to consider proposed changes to. As commissioners, if you feel like the conditions should apply to both ordinances, you have the opportunity to propose that. 16 EXHIBIT C
