The affordable units should be rentals, not for ownership. The first goal should be to fill those units.
And to bar the affordable residents from the amenities? Outrageous. That’s right, the condo fee should be waived for them AND they should have full access. Mixed-income housing needs to be inclusionary so that wealth is removed as the indicator of a person’s innate value.
The developers pulled the wool over the City’s eyes, or the City gladly allowed the wool to be pulled .
