Subject: Questions regarding PB motion last Thursday

Below I have posted the Planning Board motion passed last week regarding height modifications.  

 My questions for now are:

1.  What is considered a complete site review application?   

2.  What specific projects are included in the motion that have a  "completed site review application by January 21, 2015"? 

The motion passed by PB last Thursday is below:

"The Planning Board recommends that Council adopt ordnance 8028 amending the  Building Height regulations and requirements of Title 9, land use code BRC 1981 for certain areas of the city that meet the following conditions to be considered an exclusion:

1)  A complete Site Review application that has been submitted by January 21, 2015

2)  A site review application that is for an upgrade of an emergency operations antennae.

3)  A concept and site review application for Fraiser Meadows

All other exclusions in Ordinance 8028 are recommended to be removed.

Planning Board further recommends that before other exclusions are added to ordinance 8028 that the following take place:

1)  City Council expands the Affordable Housing Linkage fees, that are currently only applied in the DT zones, to all commercial zones and the fees are at the same rate that
 are currently applied in the DT zones until a new study is complete and adopted.  In addition the Affordable Housing Linkage fees should be for the entire building’s square footage.

2)  City Council adopts site review criteria for height modifications that define community benefit."

Approved by Planning Board 4-2
