The proposed proj ect will not only allow staff to provide better services to the tenants but will also create a visually identifiable entry for the complex. Because this residential complex is a condominium and the owner may choose to commence unit sales at any time, the leasing and on-site management operations are considered a temporary use of the building. This building is intended to convert to a multi-purpose building for the use of the condominium owners at the conclusion of the sales program, if and when it occurs. To offset the loss of passive open space resulting from the proposed building location, the applicant is proposing enhancements to the remaining passive open spaces areas. The enhancements include playground equipment to accommodate children from 2 to 12 years of age, four barbeque grills with picnic tables and one park bench. Additionally, the applicant will be remodeling the current recreation building to meet with current accessibili ty requirements, further enhancing the recreational amenities of the complex. Lastly, by relocating the current leasing/management services to the proposed building, the applicant will be able to re- instate the residential use of the unit that currently serves as the leasing office.
