Yeah. If this was a strictly commercial condo venture, I wouldn't support it in this state. But the fact that it's
A) affordable housing
B) A church group not cashing out, but remaining in the building (since they're owners, will likely keep it in very good condition)
C) In Bridgeport, which never gets any of the love it desperately needs.
D) A really important and prominent property at the gateway to Bridgeport Village that's not getting wasted on a suburban drive-thru tim hortons.
I believe Phase II is to go in the northwest corner (bottom right of the site plan) and thats where the neighbours are putting up more of a fight. This layout still allows for another potential development on Lancaster, which would be killer.
There's also some notes about providing extra energy/utility efficiency in hopes of keeping utility bills to a minimum (since those aren't included in the rent). Above and beyond for the area.
