<br />an existing "B" residentially zoned area. He assured the Council that this development was not
<br />considered public housing such as a Turnkey project. He said FHA will provide financing for the
<br />multiple family units, which will be 100 apartments in total, or, 60 single - bedroom and 40
<br />two - bedroom apartments. He stated that they will not be low income or rent subsidized units but

<br />be a two phase development, such as, East development and West development. Mr. Seely said
