207 The'Trustees did not arrive at the above decisiOn without significant discussion. Broadening the Special Use Permit area to include the seven hospital owned parcels on LocustAvenue potentially denies the Boardof any of its rights as the property owner for legitimate uses of that property as it is zoned. The City had previously imposed restrictions in 1988 that limited how and what could be built on these properties that effectiVely~created the "buffer,, that was being sought. We can only hope Condition #7, when applied, will representla balancing of. the needs of the Hospital, City and neighborhood grouPs relative to future planning in the immediate hospital area. Any future resolutions in this regard should include a more definitive determination as to what the neighbors' majority opinion is as contrasted with what. has been represented by a vocal few. We do appreciate the approvals that the Hospital has received for construction and the revenue bonds. It is our hope that in the future we will do a better job of communicating to all concerned the importance of our plans to the City. We accept these conditions with~the belief that our.purpose for requesting thiS change and the eventual construction of the community's only comprehensive cancer care center will have ultimate value for everyone. In doing so, we will work with Our supporters and detractors alike to build a better healthcare facility, a better neighborhood and a better community Sincerely, Thomas J. Kelly, Jr. Chairman, Board of Trustees Due to illness Rev, Edwards left the meeting. RESOLUTION: APPROVING VHDA FINANCING FOR EXISTING MULTI-FAMILY.
