two-bedroom, and 3 three-bedroom units, and it is designed to operate  
with Phases 1 and 2 as a single community via a cross access and  
reciprocal use agreement. Residents of the three phases will have  
access to all 38 Degrees North amenities. This project has been found  
in compliance with the California Environmental Act (CEQA) because a
