a)                     the designation of property located at 16, 18, 20, 22, 24 and 26 Moffat Street (Block 3444/Lots 13-17, and part of 18), 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 and Development (the "Disposition") to facilitate the development of a six-story residential building, tentatively known as Moffat Gardens Senior Housing, with approximately 72 residential units, to be developed under the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Section 202 Supportive Housing Program for the Elderly (ULURP No. C 070209 HAK), Community District 4, Borough of Brooklyn (the "Application");

 

WHEREAS, the Decision is subject to review and action by the Council pursuant to Section 197-d(b)(1) of the City Charter;

 

 

 

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;

 

                       WHEREAS, the New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development ("HPD") submitted to the Council its recommendations regarding the Application on  April 9, 2007;

 

                       WHEREAS, upon due notice, the Council held a public hearing on the Application and Decision on April 11, 2007;

 

                       WHEREAS, the Council has considered the relevant environmental review (CEQR No. 06HPD006K) and the fact that a Negative Declaration was issued on June 6, 2006;

 

                       WHEREAS, the Council has considered the land use and financial implications and other policy issues relating to the Application;

 

RESOLVED:

 

The Council finds that the actions described herein will have no significant effect on the environment;

 

                       Pursuant to Section 197-d, the Council approves the decision of the City Planning Commission (C 070209 HAK).
