The adopted housing plan makes no changes to the plan itself but documents how bonus credits were achieved and allocated. The Board also found several proposed affordable-housing and zoning ordinances consistent with the Master Plan, including a proposed increase in the affordable-housing set-aside for rental developments in the Downtown zones from 15% to 20% and a proposed building-height reduction in three residential zones from 30 feet to 27 feet. These actions are recommendations or planning steps; the Nokia site study will return to the Board before a recommendation is sent to the Township Council.
