This is a request for a Minor Amendment and change of use
as a referral to the Planning and Zoning Board to convert an

Access would be gained from South Mason Street by means
of a shared public and emergency access easement through
the adjacent property.

PROJECT
DESCRIPTION:
This is a request for a Project Development Plan for 52 multi-
family apartments located in one building. The multi-family

Cooperative Corporation. Each share is held through an
official Membership Certificate upon purchase. All of the units
have 2- or 3-bedrooms. The overall density of this proposal is
19.04 dwelling units per acre. The site is located on a 2.73-
acre parcel in the Medium Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood
(MMN).
