Alexis Rodriguez noted that within the Board’s meeting materials there is a letter from the project advising why the extension of time is needed and what the current status of the project is.
A. Rodriguez stated that the OCIDA team had a follow-up call 2 weeks prior with the project and they advised that they have successfully built the 33 units that were included in their first phase. A.

Susan Stanczyk inquired if the change in the description reduces or increases the footprint of the original project or if it’s just a description error.

She explained that the original documents of the Agency encompass a larger area of the property, therefore revisions are being made to the description to include only the portion of land that the approved project is on.

lender documents.” Motion was made by Susan Stanczyk, seconded by Fanny Villarreal.
