'lbe feasibili~y letter has been received ·and our entire proposal is pow before the FHA for firm commi~ments. 'lbe ea~liest we oould expect these cornmit- 1qents would be some time in April, at which tj.i!ie we would be ready to break ground. But, because of the tremendous paperwork delays at FHA, we would better be on the safe side and request the full 60-day extension. · If there is any further L"lformation or doctl!Ilentaticu L.hat you need for this re~ucst to pre$ent to the ?lsning Ccr.-~ission er the City Council,_ plea~e do not hesitate to call.

" . -_, Mar~h 25, 1971 Attention: Mr. Glanville Dear Sir: It is my understanding that at the Planning Commission me~ting last night, there was some question raised as to our application to the Federal Housing Administration for the proposed 235 project at our Oregon Green development. At the present time, the project is at the FHA awaiting firm commitments •. 'Ibey are many weeks behi..'1d, ( ; You -should also be aware of the fact that at the present time; there is no federal funding for FHA 235 projects. Mr. Parenti at the FHA informed me that they are ~ot even accepting applications for 235 projects; however, at-such time as f~ds beco~e available, they will be accepted on a merit basis. This is.to inform you that prior to our coamencing constriiction ·on the project, we will formally apply to the FHA for the 235 - units as prescribed in the ord~ce ·permitting our projf;?ct. We will send a copy of this letter to you along With a copy of any responses we receive.from the Federal Housing~Adndnistration. VcFY truly yours, •, ! ~-1PJ., r LAND~CO~:J . . i .. . J n L. fin ~ ·.
