                                        The applicant's parent company is HELM, and HELM has developed numerous projects throughout the city that are either residential buildings or other shelters for wind.

                                        The importance of them being developing the wind buildings is that it shows a commitment to community.

                                        And, this project is no different.
                                    
                                            
                                            0:07:58
                                        
                                        They built the wind building first and now they're trying to build other residential development or mixed use development next door to it.

                                        They are not preparing to build a condominium.
                                    
                                            
                                            0:08:08
                                        
                                        They are in the community.
                                    
                                            
                                            0:08:10
                                        
                                        They want to be members of the community.
                                    
                                            
                                            0:08:13
                                        
                                        And the wind building is an example of how they've been participating and fulfilling local needs.
