Mr. Preisendanz commented on TTM No. 25475, Revision No.1. He noted
that it was being revised to accommodate the requirements of the MSHCP.

over the past 3 years. She noted that they lost 1,300 dwelling units. She
noted after losing the lots to habitat, one of the things they realized was that
they needed to provide housing that would appeal to a market niche that no

they then decided to bridge the gap between the Fairfield Apartments and
the Centex Fox and Jacobs product type.
