Um that is it for now. Okay. Good evening. My name is Christian Maldonado with the Department of Planning and Zoning here to present the application for Commonwealth Center residential proffer amendment. The subject properties located in Commonwealth Center at the southeast intersection of Russell Branch Parkway and Lauder County Parkway in the Broadrun Election District. The site was recently rezoned to the R24 ADU legacy zoning district to support up to 118 multifamily attached residential dwelling units provided as attainable housing units with the approval of LEGGI 2023 0041 Commonwealth Center Residential in November 2023. The applicant is proposing a modification to the approved proffer statement to provide consistency with the Virginia Housing Development Authority policies for funding. The proposed proper text amendment would change the income tiers served in the event of a foreclosure. On May 6th, the board approved public hearing waivers for this application consistent with the zoning ordinance regulations, which allow strict proffer text amendments limited in scope, such as the subject application to proceed directly to a planning commission work session. Staff finds the proposed amendment to be consistent with county policies and support a planning recommendation. Planning commission recommendation of approval to the board. Staff is happy to answer any questions. Do we have any questions for Christian on this application?
