3.7.5.1 Subject to the provisions of Section 3.7.4.6 and the following conditions, the

reserved for low and moderate income tenants aged sixty-five (65) and
over;

for a similar unit within the development, or at a monthly rate equal to 70%
of the median family income, as in c. below, divided by twelve (12) months
and multiplied by .25;

rent unit not exceed 70% of the median family income for the Hartford
statistical area published annually by the Department of Housing and
Urban Development or similar publication;

are offered for sale to the Town of Granby at a rate 50% below the market
rate;
f. That the appropriate documents necessary to implement these Regulations
be prepared by the developer and approved by the Commission subject to
a review of the Town Attorney. The documents shall include an agreement
whereby the developer and/or owner shall submit an annual report to the
