INFORMAL MATTER
CASE NO. 3304 – VILLAGE GATE CONDOMINIUMS – STATE ROAD (James LaCava)
Mr. Manfredi requested that the Board make a determination regarding the occupancy permits for two units that are built and ready to be conveyed. A letter addressed to Mr. Manfredi from Attorney Angley was submitted to the Board for review.
The Board determined that the occupancy permit should not be withheld pending the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding as the condition does not require that the affordable unit be constructed prior to the sale of any other units. The condition requires that the petitioner designate a unit as “affordable”.
Mr. Main made a motion to authorize Mr. Manfredi to issue the occupancy permits on the two units that are ready to be conveyed.
Mr. Peck seconded.
Unanimously granted.
No further business came before the Board.
Respectfully submitted,
Peggy Fitzgibbons
Administrative Assistant
