Our project is located at site that the surrounding site partially already developed and able to meet the development density requirement. There are some part of surrounding site that will be developed in future (only graded site for now and will not be developed for public areas). Can I exclude the part of surrounding site that will be developed in future? Since the floor area for the buildings are unknown for this moment.

Hi Michael, I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. Are you trying to exclude the surrounding site from Option 1 calculations? If you don't know the floor areas of the building, I would either wait until you know or try to comply via Option 2.

Hi Marylin, Yes, we are planning to exclude some part of the surrounding that unknown for the building floor area. Since the development will be completed for the next 5 or 10 years, hence our submittal timeline will not be able to wait until the floor areas will be know. We will try to pursue under Option 2.

Yes, I would look at Option 2 and see if that's an option for your project.
