Description: The Proponent has filed a Notice of Project Change to advance the residential concept to insure the unit designs were fully compatible with restoration standards. A review of fenestration standards dictated by the International Building Code revealed that the existing windows did not provide sufficient light for the three bedroom units proposed for the Rope walk’s Mill Building. To solve this conflict, the three bedroom units have been changed to two bedroom units, some with dens. As a result, the overall unit count increased from approximately 90 to 97, an increase of less than 10%. It also resulted in a decrease in the number of bedrooms overall — from 172 to 143, a decrease of approximately 17%. This meeting gives the community the opportunity to review the Notice of Project Change.
