This project is <br /> currently under construction with an awarded amount of$894,757.16. <br /> This Agreement outlines three regulatory controls that must be approved by separate <br /> ordinances. These are: <br /> 1. The first ordinance, which becomes Exhibit A to the Agreement, prohibits parking <br /> within the project limits.
