Rob mentioned that the county could override a local resolution on this development. That is legally possible -- in this case it would require a super-majority vote of the county council. (That means 2/3 of the council, not just a simple majority) From what Park and Planning has said, it would be very unusual for the county council to override the local municipality's desires in this instance.
<br><br>Earlier, someone on the list mentioned unit size. When asked about the dimensions of the units for this building, the developer said that the average unit size is 900 sq.ft. -- they reported that 2 BR units will be around 1,100 and efficiencies will be no smaller than 610
sq.ft. Someone said that the development lacks amenities like a gym or common room. The plans do offer amenities, in this case a business center. According to the developer, that is the sort of amenity package condo owners want right now - basically a place w/ high speed access, photocopier, deliveries etc.
