AI Summary

This bill affirms that the present uses of the Commercial Wharf East Condominium Association, as set forth in the 1974 Rehabilitation Agreement and Master Deed, are properly authorized under the Downtown Waterfront-Faneuil Hall Urban Renewal Plan and the relevant state laws (Chapters 663 and 310). The bill acknowledges that the public purposes of the Urban Renewal Plan, such as preserving the historic granite building and revitalizing the waterfront with a mixed-use condominium facility, have been met through the existing uses of the property, which allow the first and second floors to be used interchangeably for residential, office, or other commercial purposes, along with accessory uses.
