charge proposed at a subsequent meeting.

tion on Walnut Blvd. was $18,000.00 and there was estimated to be about
1,000 multiple units in the area to be affected.
He stated that, although the later policy of the Board changed the
program of the local Walnut Blvd. area, there were about six other parties
who had understood the charge would be on the basis of $18,000.00 cost to
be charged to 1,000 units, or $18.00 per unit.
After discussion, it was moved by Member Gibbs, seconded by Member
Salfingere, that the multiple unit deficiency charge to Mr. Feichtmeir be
$18.00 each for the 30 units he has under construction and that the District
staff be instructed to contact all parties who have been given a commitment
on the Walnut Blvd. original proposal and be given 30 days to accept, after
which they will be obligated under the general multiple unit deficiency
