RE: Request for Three Readings of Rezoning Ordinance on November 23rd
Dear Mr. Diekmann,
Please consider our request to have three readings of our rezoning ordinance for City Council
meeting on November 23`d to have everything completed by the end of the month. Windsor
Pointe Apartments is scheduled to be awarded for Low Income Housing Tax Credits this year
with approval of zoning from the City of Ames. Unfortunately, if we are unable to get zoning,
Windsor Pointe Apartments falls out of a Qualified Census Tract (QCT) in 2022, making this
substantial rehab unfeasible. Iowa Finance Authority has requested the month of December to
process paperwork if zoning is considered. We hope City Council understands the urgency of our
situation and can accommodate the three readings on November 23`d. If we are unable to do
three readings on November 23`d, we would like to request a special meeting the following week
to complete the three readings. Please let us know which path would be best for City Council.
We appreciate your help in getting this scheduled.
Sincerely,
A4
Ryan Kelly
Acquisitions Director
