The Canyon View Apartments project, resubmitted by the Applicant, has undergone some modifications due to the density variance being denied by the Planning Commission on January 6, 2021. The submission (attached) now eliminates the middle-income units in favor of 104 market-rate units that comply with the R-3 zoning for lot area per dwelling, along with setbacks and height. The elimination of the middle-income units means the Applicant will need to gain allocations through the open pool and save those allocations in 2021 and 2022 (up to 5 years per banking plan allowance) for construction of the entire project.
