Nicoley Collins, part owner of the project, introduced herself. She said she hopes they can answer any questions and move the project forward. She said she fears that they have hit a wall with city staff. Robert McGillis, project architect, spoke about options for the tentative map. Shona Armstrong, Boatworks attorney, spoke about the unusual order of the approvals for this project. She said there was an approved density bonus application in 2011 that specified the number of affordable units. She said the inclusionary housing and density bonus issues only reappeared in the March 8th, 2016 letter and that is why they feel it would be appropriate to have more time to work those issues out. Board Member Sullivan asked where visitor parking would be. She confirmed that there were no backyards for any of the units. Mr. Banta explained that Blanding Ave. would have street parking along one side and Elm would have perpindicular parking along one side. Board Member Mitchell asked what the distance between the water and the adjacent property lines would be. Mr. Banta said the smallest distance would be 50 feet.
