CALL TO ORDER:
Meeting was called to order by Neil Clark, Chair. A quorum was present. The
purpose of the called meeting was to review an application for 1339 1st Avenue.
Case Reviews:
1339 1st Avenue Application was presented by John Thayer for the YMCA. The
request was to demolish several structures on this site in order to construct a
new building/facility. The Board reviewed and discussed the application. The
Board?s discussion focused on several issues. The Board was concerned that no
detailed plans had been determined for the new structure as to its appearance
and relationship to Broadway, 14th Street and 1st Avenue. Also, the request
did not take into consideration the use, if possible, of the existing
structures that are of historic and architectural interest. A motion was made
by John Lester to table the request for demolition until more detailed
information about the project could be provided to the Board. Sonja Eddings
seconded the motion. The motion passed.
Old/New Business:
Board Member Mark Renner thanked Neil Clark on behalf of the Board for his many
years of service on the Board and for his serving as Chair. Mr. Clark has
served for 6 years on the Board, the last two of those years as Chair. Mr.
Clark?s term expired on October 31.
