Mr. Art Dunkley, 4672 Second Street, stated he is concerned about Condi- tion No. 5 "That the existing renters located on the site shall be afforded the same renters relief as detailed in Section 2-25.10 (Tenant Provisions) of Ordinance 980 concerning Condominium Conversion Projects; existing tenants shall be so notified within one week of project approval" He stated this condition is irrelevant to the proposed project, and would create a dangerous precedent. He suggested it be eliminated from this application and others similar to it as it would have a major negative impact on the housing program. Mr. Brent Wilsox, representing his parents at 3988 Stanley Boulevard, stated that Mr. Payne had contacted the surrounding neighbors to discuss the project.

Mayor Mercer stated he is still concerned about the project as it relates to the ultimate street width and noise buffering. Mr. Payne stated the project is designed taking into consideration the most extreme streeet width projections. He stated the complex will have double paned windows and be stucco to reduce noise impacts. Mayor Mercer expressed concern about the pool being at the front of the project next to the street.
