a)                     the designation of property located at 212-214 East 7th Street (Block 389, Lot 24) and 617-619 East 9th Street (Block 392, Lot 53), as an Urban Development Action Area (the "Area");

 

b)                     an Urban Development Action Area Project for such area (the "Project"); and

 

pursuant to Section 197-c of the New York City Charter for the disposition of such property to a developer selected by the Department of Housing Preservation to facilitate the development of two, six-story buildings, tentatively known as Fabria Houses, with approximately 37 residential units  (the "Disposition"), Community District 3, Borough of Manhattan   (ULURP No. C 060281 HAM) (the "Application");

WHEREAS, the Application and Decision are subject to review and action by the Council pursuant to Article 16 of the General Municipal Law of New York State;
