r <br /> 12 • <br /> see something graphic and more definite. <br /> • On the subject of the off-site provision of open space and affordable housing for density <br /> bonuses (page 28), the Board recommended a compromise. If off-site dedication is <br /> needed, the Board recommended that the road be easier for off-site provision within the <br /> same Township, by somehow "streamlining" the means of approval. If the off-site "in- <br /> lieu" land is in another Township, the Board recommended that it be allowed, if some <br /> (unspecified)parameters are met- but not be "automatic." The Board felt that this might <br /> provide an incentive to provide land within the same Township. Larry Reid indicated that <br /> he didn't think the affordable housing density bonus section was feasible. <br /> • In Section III(page 34); regarding the Public Information meeting, Arnie Katz expressed <br /> a concern (echoed by others) that notification of property owners within 500 feet was not <br /> sufficient for developments that could have a profound impact on the area. He suggested <br /> a larger radius of 2000 feet or more. After some discussion of the purpose of the Public <br /> Information Meeting (and Black Walnut Farms), staff proposed that instead of <br /> recommending a 2000 feet radius that staff explore other means of notification and report <br /> back at the August 21 meeting. The Board agreed. <br />
