a)                     the designation of property located at 1087 East Tremont Avenue (Block 3141, part of Lot 1), 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 New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development to facilitate rehabilitation of an existing four-story community facility building (the "Disposition"), Community District 6, Borough of the Bronx (ULURP No. C 100083 HAX) (the "Application");
