(o) The amendment of this Planned Development concerning development of Parcels P21B and P21C triggers the requirements of Section 2-45-110 of the Municipal Code (the "Affordable Requirements Ordinance" or "ARO"). Any developer of a "residential housing project" within the meaning of the Affordable Requirements Ordinance ("Residential Project") must: (i) develop affordable housing units as part of the Residential Project; (ii) pay a fee in lieu of the development of affordable. housiag units; or (iii) any combination of (i) and (ii). Further, the amendment of this Planned Development is subject to Section 17-4-1004-D of the Zoning Code, which also requires on-site affordable housing or payment of a fee in lieu of providing affordable housing for rezonings in DC, DX and DR districts that increase the base floor area ratio. If a planned development is subject to the requirements of both sections (2-45-110 and 17-4-1004-D), the developer may elect to satisfy the ARO requirements by complying with the affordable housing floor area bonus provided for in Section 17-4-1004. The owner of Parcels P21B and P21C has elected to comply with Section 17-4-1004. Pursuant to Section 17-4-1004-B of the Zoning Ordinance, the owner of Parcels P21B and P21C has requested an increase in the floor area ratio for the Property, as set forth in the bonus worksheet required under Section 17-4-1003-D and attached hereto as an Exhibit ("Bonus Worksheet"). In accordance with the formulas set forth in Section 17-4-1004-C and the Bonus Worksheet, the owner of Parcels P21B and P21C acknowledges and agrees that it must provide either a minimum of at least 21,680 square feet of floor area (the "Affordable Units") in the building receiving the affordable housing floor area bonus ("Eligible Building"), with an affordable unit mix comparable to the overall mix and approved by the Department of Planning and Development prior to issuance of the first building permit, or make a cash payment in lieu of providing affordable housing in the amount of $2,983,168 ("Cash Payment"), or $100,000 per unit ("Pro Rata Amount"). Prior to the issuance of any building permits for the Eligible Building, including, without limitation, excavation or foundation permits, the owner of Parcels P21B and P21C must either make the required Cash Payment or provide a performance bond or other security in the amount of the Cash Payment ensuring construction of the Affordable Units. If the owner of Parcels P21B and P21C elects to construct the Affordable Units, it must also enter into an Affordable Housing Agreement with the City pursuant to Section 17-4-1004-E9 prior to the issuance of any building permits for the Eligible Building, including, without limitation, excavation or foundation permits. The terms of the Affordable Housing Agreement and any amendments thereto would be incorporated herein by this reference.

The park, as renovated, shall continue to be privately owned, maintained and subject to occasional partial closure for private use but, subject to the foregoing, shall remain accessible to the public during hours in which public parks are accessible to the public. The public shall have use of the Dog Run indicated on the Landscape Plan subject to any regulations, if imposed, that conform to the protocols of the Chicago Park District for Dog Friendly Areas. The owner(s) of Parcels P21B and P21C (the Kraft Parcel) shall be responsible for the costs and performance of maintenance of the park in conformance with the Landscape Plan and the Open Space Plan. Nothing contained herein shall preclude residents or other individuals from using the park for other private uses, provided that they obtain permission from the owner(s) of the Kraft Parcel and all necessary governmental approvals and permits.
  2. Traffic studies completed by developers and the City of Chicago project significant peak hour traffic volume increases on Illinois Street and Grand Avenue in particular as a result of new development. Some excess roadway capacity is available to handle this increased traffic, but a number of geometric, signal timing and parking control measures are recommended in addition to active transportation management in the Illinois-Grand corridor. Accordingly, no Part II submittal shall be approved without a firm agreement between the developer and the Chicago Department of Transportation regarding the timing and responsibility for any recommended traffic improvements described in Exhibit 8 hereof for streets adjoining the development site. Membership and participation in the Illinois-Grand Corridor Transportation Management Association shall also be required prior to the issuance of any Part II development approval.
  3. Prior to the issuance by the Department of Planning and Development of a determination pursuant to Section 17-13-0610 of the Chicago Zoning Ordinance ("Part II approval") for development or redevelopment of any development parcels within the planned development, other than alterations to existing buildings which do not increase their height or alter their footprint or construction in accordance with the Plans approved herein, a site plan for the proposed development, including parking areas, shall be submitted to the Zoning Administrator for approval. Review and approval of the site plan by the Zoning Administrator is intended to assure that specific development proposals conform with the general design standards in Statement 11 and to ensure coordination of public improvements described in Statements 12 through 15 at an early stage. No Part II approval for work for which a Site Plan must be submitted to the Zoning Administrator
