He would like paragraph 17.36.050(D) to be amended so that not all the units would have to come out of first-come, first-served units. He requested Council to consider four things: 1) the number of units in the major projects and first-come, first-served projects be made ranges; 2) for a project 70-99 units in size; that the maximum number of building permits per year be changed from 35 to 45 units per year; (3) for a project 40-69 units in size, the maximum number of building permits be changed from 25 to 35 units per year; and (4) a project of less than 40 units be allowed to build out all in one year.
