story structures containing a total of 38 low-income affordable units, community room, and
leasing office, on a site designated for affordable housing. The project includes an 80% density
bonus, as a standard incentive for projects consisting of 100% affordable housing. The project
also includes a reduction in setback requirements, requested as an alternative incentive,
allowing a setback of four feet, where five feet is the minimum required within the Planned
