But without provisions in the current community plan for desig- nated seniors' housing and with the laws insisting on government subsidies or percentage place- By CORINNE BJORGE Contributing Writer ments, council members said they could not vote against sending the plan to the Advisory Planning Committee. “*We have an official community plan. If we don't adhere to it, we should change it,’’ said Ald. John Braithwaite. Braithwaite said that technically, the plan the developer submitted was great, including parking that was ‘more than adequate’ with two spaces per unit, instead of the required 1.5.
