103-unit apartment building proposed with 20% of homes income-restricted

The plan calls for mostly studios plus 16 one-bedrooms and a manager's unit, with surface parking and a reduced parking requirement tied to the income limits. The Design Review Commission is reviewing it, and a separate access variance request is also pending.
