He noted that his house qualifies for 200 green points and that the roof component is very important.

Steve Reichenbach stated that he has been a resident of the Avila development for the past 14 years and expressed concern regarding integration and affordable housing. He noted that the three properties proposed for rezoning are very close together, are isolated, and are already in a high density area, and that adding high-density housing in a small area would be equivalent to segregating the less affluent, affordable housing rather than integrating it into the community.
