Filed in the summer, plans call for an approximately 75-foot-tall, 18,300-square-foot community at 936 Fedora Street. The development would hold 20 one-bedroom apartments and 10 two-bedrooms over two above-grade levels of automobile parking with 15 spaces.

On Thursday, the neighborhood council committee will discuss whether to draft a letter in support of the project to be addressed to the Los Angeles planning director.

Led by Yu Kon Kim, Commun Associate is seeking Tier-3 project incentives through the city’s transit-oriented communities program. These include a 13-unit density bonus, reduced required parking minimum to half a space per unit, and a 25-percent open space reduction, plans show. The developer would reserve three units for extremely low-income households in accordance with the TOC program.

Units would range in size from 405 to 427 square feet for the one-bedrooms and from 549 to 625 square feet for the two-bedrooms.
