the

vote
of
March
16
2022
to
extend
the
tentative

intent
to
sell
period
from
12
to
18
months
to

Incorporated.
B
G
You
TT
I'm
here
requesting
PFC
approval
of
the
extension
of
the
tentative
developer,
designation
of
the
Edward
L
Cooper
Community
gardening
and
education
center
here,
also
known
as
elcc
for
the
parcels
identified
in
the
vote
package
in
the
Roxbury
section
of
Boston.
As
background
prior
to
the
developer
designation
in
March
2022
moh
conducted
an
extensive
public
process.
I'm
only
told
a
community
meeting
in
May
2021
to
discuss
with
community
members.
The
preservation
of
these
Parcels
is
open
space,
including
the
continued
use
of
66
Center
Street.
G
As
a
community
garden
support
by
the
community
and
dividers
was
strong.
A
request
for
proposals
was
issued
on
September
20th,
2021
and
advertised
in
the
States
state
Central
register
the
Boston
Herald
and
the
City
record
one
development
team
applied
to
the
RFP
and
was
determined
to
meet
the
eligibility
criteria.
G
G
They
expect
to
submit
plans
to
Boston,
Water
and
Sewer
by
the
end
of
this
week.
In
addition,
as
they
have
been
finalizing,
their
design
and
budget
elcc
has
realized,
they
may
require
additional
fundraising
to
complete
the
entire
design
there
are
awaiting
quotes
for
landscaping,
work
to
determine
if
they
will
require
additional
funding
to
complete
the
full
design.
G
G
This
will
make
possible
the
development
of
an
important
community
resource.
The
vote
package
includes
a
comprehensive
memo
about
the
project
and
PFC
vote
reports.
I've
also
provided
four
handouts
related
to
this
book
request,
which
are
displayed
on
the
screen.
The
first
is
an

of
the
parcels.
G
In
summary,
if
PFC
approves
the
vote
request
to
extend
the
developer
designation
by
six
months,
that
will
lead
to
the
following
public
benefits:
we'll
preserve
a
long
vacant
property
is
a
community
garden,
oven,
woods
and
open
space
for
the
neighborhood.
In
addition,
the

avoid
approximately
two
thousand

thirty
six
dollars
a
year
in
annual
maintenance
costs
and
return
this

F
F
Great
thanks
TT
good
morning,
commissioners.
F
I'm
here
requesting
PFC
approval
of
a
six-month
extension
of
the
developer,
designation
of
Norfolk
scattered
sites,
LLC
for
the
scattered
site,
Standalone
neighborhood
homes,
initiative
development,
which
includes
the
four
vacant
and
Parcels
that
a
TT
outlined
in
the
agenda.
The
Norfolk
team
proposes
seven
new,
affordable
units,
including
four
sales
and
three
yeah.
Three
three
rental
units
on
March,
16,
2022
PFC,
approved
a
tentative
developer,
designation
and
tent
assault
in
Norfolk
design
and
Construction
LLC.
F
They
in
turn
created
Norfolk
scattered
sites,
LLC
a
single
purpose
entity
created
for
the
development
as
a
little
more
background.
Moh
conducted
a
public
process
regarding
the
disposition
of
the
pros
of
the
parcels,
including
moh
staff,
met
with
Community
residents
to
announce
the
inclusion
of
the
above
parcels
in
the
nhi
program
and
to
discuss
the
development
and
discuss
design
criteria
for
the
RFP
based
on
community
meeting
input.
F
A
request
for
proposals
was
issued
on
March
9th
2020,
with
advertisements
appearing
in
the
Boston
Herald
at
the
State
Central
register
and
and
the
City
record
all
following
chapter
30b
requirements.
The
due
date
for
the
ROP
was
May
22nd
2020
and
at
that
time
six
proposals
were
received
and
then,
as
noted
earlier
at
the
March
16
2022
PFC
meeting
moh
recommended
npfc
approved
the
tentative,
develop
a
designation
and
intent
to
sell
to
Norfolk
design
and
Construction
LLC.
F
F
So
the
development
plan
includes
seven
affordable
new
homes,
including
four
ownership
units
and
three
rental
units,
as
I
mentioned,
it's
under
the
neighborhood
homes
initiative,
but
it'll
consist
of
three
two
family
structures.
This
is
the
building
type
where
you
have
an
ownership
and
a
rental
unit,
and
then
an
additional
single
single
family
home
that
will
be
for
ownership
homes
will
all
be
affordable
and
they'll
be
split
between
80
Ami,
which
we
consider
the
moderate
income
and
100
Ami,
which
is
the
middle,
and
the
mix
of
affordability
will
include
two
sales
at
80
Ami.
F
Then
there
will
be
two
sales
at
100
Ami,
including
one
single
fed
in
my
home
and
a
two-family
home
and
again,
a
two-family
home
will
have
an
owner
and
a
renter,
and
it
will
be
pegged
to
the
100.
Ami
Norfolk
has
accomplished
a
good
number
of
tests.
Since
the
designation,
if
received
bpda
and
GBA
approvals,
they've
got
their
stamp
signed,
engineered
drawings,
approved
by
one
restore
Commission
Department
of
Public
Works.
The
permit
signing
off
is
approved
permits
are
ready
at
ISD.
F
F
If
PFC
approves
the
extension
vote,
request,
Norfolk,
scattered
sites,
LLC
will
accomplish
the
following
task.
So
the
finalize
the
development
budget
finalize
funding
commitments,
and
then
you
expect
to
return
to
PFC.
This
fall
for
a
conveyance
for

Commissioners
and
I'm
here.
To
answer
any
any
