City staff corrects housing project application from 115 to 100 units; local match to be in-kind
Summary
Deputy Commissioner Michelle Stefanski told the council that a housing project previously described as 115 units is being applied for as about 100 units. The administration asked that the final ordinance reflect the corrected unit count and said the local match will be provided as in-kind services.
Michelle Stefanski, deputy commissioner of neighborhood development, told councilors the city should reflect a corrected unit count for a housing application now expected to seek about 100 units instead of 115.
“Instead of a 115 units, we think that this is gonna be closer to a 100 units, and that’s what we’re applying for,” Stefanski said during the meeting and asked that the final ordinance reflect the change.
Stefanski also told councilors the local match for the project will be provided as in-kind services rather than a cash match. Councilors agreed to ensure the ordinance title and final materials reflect the updated unit count before the voting meeting.
Separately in the agenda discussion a councilor noted an effective date of Sept. 1 would be added to an item so the community would have notice if the ordinance passed. No formal vote on the application or its funding match occurred during the study session.
