Of the units, 58 will be set aside for extremely low-income households at 30 percent of the Area Median Income, 26 units will be for permanent supportive housing for persons experiencing chronic homelessness, and one will be maintained as a manager's unit. In particular, 10 of the 26 permanent supportive housing units will be for transitional aged youth (i.e. emancipated foster youth). The three- and four -bedroom units will be designated for large families, while the one- and two- bedroom units will be designated for permanent supportive housing. Common open space includes a 5,000-square foot playground and picnic area, two residential rooftop patios, internal courtyards, and community rooms. The playground, lawn and picnic area along Huron Drive will be accessible to the public, but maintained by the property owner and managed by the on -site property manager. The development consists of two buildings that vary from three- to four -stories in height. The portions of the' buildings that are closest to the single- family residential homes will tier -down to three -stories in height. In addition, the playground and parking lot will serve as a buffer between the multi -family buildings and the single-family homes with setbacks of 50 and 185 feet. The perimeter of the property will be planted with trees to screen the project. The project has contemporary architecture with a variety of materials including glass tile arches, wood veneer, batten board siding, art graphics, plaster and a mix of warm and cool colors. On - site vehicular circulation is designed to provide access from Westminster Avenue (with right -turn in and right -turn out access) to the parking lot that is located behind the buildings (Exhibits 6 -11). There are no driveways along Huron, a local residential street.
