application  would  permit  an additional  34  units that  would  be  designated  as 
“affordable” subject to an affordable housing agreement that would be registered 
on the property title.  
 
Janis Gauthier reported that IWAV is asking for 34 additional units that would be 
designated  as affordable  housing  units in  perpetuity  registered  on  the  property
