The forty units are reserved for persons at least 62 years <br /> old,who tarn no wore than fifty per cent of the median income for the County. Therefore, <br /> this property qualf6es for the 5e6 105-27&6(a)(8) exemption. <br /> W didtnot file our Application for Exemption until July.9, 1998. The reason for the <br /> late was that UCC Livuig Centers, Inc., a non-profit co ration formed solely for the <br /> purpose f pvic this low income housing, was advisedby its counsel that it did not <br /> need to 4e an Applic saion until the property was "placed in service." I am enclosing a copy <br /> of the letter from our attorney, dated April 1, 1996. We relied on this advice, and thus our <br /> Applicatipn was late. We hope and believe this good with reliance on our professional <br /> counsel sufficient good cause to justify approval of our late Applicatiom <br /> Tbank you very much for your consideration of this matter, and please call me if you <br /> require r information. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Malcolm Ray Hunter, r. <br /> Co-Chair <br /> UCC Living Centers,Inc. <br /> Enclosure <br /> cc: Mr.Wilmer Brown <br />
