Both finalists will enter a Best and Final Offer period before the Somerville Redevelopment Authority is expected to decide in early July. The proposals differ in scale, parking, open space, and how income-restricted homes would be arranged. The Council authorized Ben Wheeler and Senior Planner Ben Demers to share relevant executive-session discussions with the Authority; a final land development agreement would still require Council approval after due diligence.
