Both of the amendments contained <br />in he resolution are in the best interests of the citizens <br />of oath Bend and, more specifically, in the interests of <br />dow town development. <br />The first amendment requests an increase in the number <br />of iesidential dwelling units allowed in the Block 6 area from <br />200 units to 350 units. This change is necessary to facilitate <br />the construction of the elderly high rise apartment block which <br />requires 211 units to permit the inclusion of handicapped units <br />req fired by federal regulations. The additional units may be <br />req fired because the developer of Block 6 has been approached <br />by Earties interested in constructing luxury dwelling units in <br />the area. <br />The second amendment is necessary because the completion <br />of Century Center will generate a need for additional transient <br />housing as close to the new Center as possible. Block 6 is <br />ideally placed to provide a land area on which can be <br />constructed additional transient housing. <br />Thank you for your consideration of this request, and I <br />will appreciate it very much if you will give it your prompt <br />attention. <br />Ver truly yours, <br />eter J, Ne th <br />PJN bjb <br />
