Accordingly, the application <br /> is before the City Council, which may confirm the Commission's approval without <br /> changes, modify the approval (e.g., by requiring project modifications or adding <br /> conditions), or overturn the Commission's decision (i.e., deny the applications). <br /> The applicant provided staff with updated plans on December 8, 2020. The plans modify <br /> the design of the building, maintain a manager's unit on site, and slightly change the <br /> proposed landscape, as described further below. In addition to discussion of these <br /> proposed changes, the agenda report provides additional analysis of the value of the <br /> proposed amenity contribution, against the value of the increased floor area ratio (FAR). <br /> The requested Affordable Housing Fee reduction falls under the City Council's purview <br /> for review and action and was therefore not considered by the Commission.
