Serpa: Yes, we think the three -story homes would come into the market just below $800,000 or about $775,000 and then the two- stories and the larger two -story would come in probably around mid - $800,000 /high $800,000- something like that. Commissioner Allen: Just a couple of questions following up on that. So how many of the 95 homes will be low income, or did I read none would be? Serpa: As Jennifer explained, the Sunflower Hill community -the contribution there; the gift of the land, improvements and all that would satisfy the affordable housing issues. Commissioner Allen: Okay, so all of the 95 homes would be at market rate Serpa: Market rate Commissioner Allen: Okay, the second question I have is regarding Sunflower Hill. I just pulled up today their website and there's a Q &A on their website that says what types of housing units are planned. They said that in Livermore, Sunflower Hill is proposing a development of 45 units on site and an on -site manager. And then it says, "The Pleasanton site may evolve more into a day use campus with opportunities for individuals and adjacent homes to use the service, but tentatively, 17 on -site apartments are planned." So what is the plan? It sounds like, according to their site, that this could be a day use facility and they clearly have a lot more land in Livermore that they would center around housing. Serpa: Well, let me introduce Susan Houghton, President of the Board at Sunflower Hill and let her answer that question. Chair Ritter: Before we go there does anyone have any more questions for Mike? Serpa: I can get back up. Chair Ritter: Okay, then we'll let Susan speak. Thank you. And just so the public knows, we're going to open it up to the public and go through these comments and we'll bring it back. Susan, do you want to help answer Commissioner Allen's question. Beaudin: Mr. Chair, if I could, while Susan makes it to the microphone, just to clarify on the affordable housing question as well, the applicant's proposal is that zero of the units be market rate and that is something that is being negotiated with the City and that will come forward with an affordable housing agreement ultimately. So I just want to make sure it's clear that that's an on -going discussion. It will come through the Housing Commission, and it certainly is an important topic for this project. Chair Ritter: Zero of 95 Commissioner Allen: ... will all be market rate? Beaudin: All 95 units are currently proposed to be market rate with the Sunflower Hill property on the table as a contribution towards the affordable housing component of the project, and the details just need to be worked out.
