Discussion: The proposal from the subdivider is to provide ten percent of the total market rate homes proposed in the development. Thirty eight market rate units are proposed within the subdivision; with thirty three detached homes and five townhomes. The proposal is to provide four townhomes as lower priced homes @70% AMI for a total of forty two homes within the subdivision. The subdivider proposes to provide the four lower priced homes in phase IV to be developed concurrent with the market rate homes. The location of the proposed market rate and affordable townhomes is south of Student Drive located on and facing South 11th Avenue. The lots are alley loaded.
