E
Good
morning,
this
request
for
PFC
approvals
for
tentative
developer,
designation
of
Madison
Park
Development
Corporation
for
the
parcel
identified
in
the
vote
package
in
the
Roxbury
neighborhood
of
Boston
D
and
E
conducted
an
extensive
public
process
that
resulted
in
this
vote
request.
One
community
meeting
was
held
in
2019
to
discuss
the
development
proposal
for
the
parcel
following
over
one
dozen
meetings
and
engagements
for
the
plan
deadly
initiative
between
2016
and
the
issuance
of
the
RFP
in
2018.
E
A
request
for
proposals
was
issued
on
July,
16th,
2018
and
advertised
in
the
state
Central
Register
and
Boston
Herald,
one
development
team
applied
to
the
RFP
and
one
was
determined
to
meet
the
eligibility
criteria.
The
eligible
developer
was
invited
to
a
community
meeting
to
present
their
proposal
based
on
community
feedback,
community
PR,
C
and
D
nd
review
of
the
eligible
application
against
the
RFP
evaluation
criteria.
E
We
recommended
the
tentative
developer
designation
of
Madison
Park
Development
Corporation
in
particular,
Madison
Park
Development
Corporation's
proposal
stands
out
for
its
emphasis
on
diversity
and
inclusion
and
the
development
team,
the
production
of
affordable
homeownership
opportunities,
the
low
market
office
rents
and
a
commitment
to
piloting
an
anti
displacement
measure.
The
vote
package

a
