In explaining this information to Angelic Sutherland, I also questioned where are the documents that reflect a modification because the original proposal was approved as a fishing camp site and then in 2004 the property was purchased and converted into a permanent residential development, which should have enacted a modification that was not done. I further express, in discovering such lack of action, the proposal is not meeting the state laws, and therefore it should not be allowed to go forward. In addition, in studying the area soils, it was not found to be suitable for full-time living quarters. However, Angelic Sutherland’s response was this project started before she was the Director, so we are to still move forward with the request.
Please review the attached DA to verify whether the 165affordable senior apartments portion of this project would also be subject to Chapter 17.35 (Park and Recreational Land).

Green buildings could become one of the main factors to preserve our rapidly decaying environment. There is no easy way to define a green building, but a green building is essentially a structure that amplifies the positives and mitigates the negatives throughout the entire life cycle of the building (Kriss, 2014). There are many definitions for a green building, but all of them include the planning, designing, constructing, and operating of the building while taking into huge considerations of the energy use, water use, indoor air environment, materials used and the effect it has on the site the green building is being built on. The first green buildings dates back to as far as the 1970’s, when solar panels went from experiments to reality. Green buildings were not as popular as they are today due to their extremely high pricing. With technology rapidly growing, solar panels are becoming cheaper and cheaper, making the transition to creating green buildings more affordable. This is the primary reason for the increased growth of green buildings today. A modern company that is paving the way to the growth of green buildings named LEED, Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, focuses primarily on new and effective ideas for environmentally friendly buildings projects. With more than 60,000 commercial projects worldwide and 1.7 million square feet being certified every day, LEED is one of the leading groups for promoting green buildings. LEED has popularized the entire
