Mr. Plucker noted that the Commission has the ability to set a limit on the FAR and let staff and the developer worry about how to make it happen. Chairperson Roberts suggested that the Commission require that the project maintain a 36% FAR and ten-foot setback, with the exception of the moderate-income housing lots. She stated that she also wants to include input from the Fairgrounds regarding the fencing. Commissioner Maas stated that she would like the communication with the Fairgrounds to be reciprocal. Chairperson Roberts stated that she wants to include the bonding for the fence across the Nolan property. Commissioner Kameny stated that he wants to include all of the house designs to be reviewed by the Planning Commission. He noted that this is the ideal location for the affordable housing and he hopes the applicant can find a way to make it work. Chairperson Roberts stated that she agrees that the Commission should review the plans for the moderate-income homes and any changes to the house plans. In response to a question from Commissioner Maas, Mr. Plucker noted that the street lighting would be included in the final map.
