The impact of how the loss of affordable housing units on the DA and whether enrollment capacity needs to be amended should be further analyzed
Issues • Loss of approved open space - The original master plan site plan was approved by the City Council. The impact of how this Proposal may change the overall site design, tree protection and aesthetics would be further analyzed • FAR and height averaging - The applicant must provide updated calculations to show how the elimination of parcels and structures from the master plan would impact the maximum allowed FAR and height averaging on the overall smaller campus
