This is good. Great job, CDA. I hope this standard spreads to other departments and committees of City Hall.
ReplyDeleteIn relation to Design Review, in addition to the review of the Western Reserve Transit Authority proposal, the was also to discuss updates as to several cases it identified for non-compliance of the board's ruling over a 2 year period.
Several of these decisions included:
- The vacant hole at the site of the State Theater on West Federal St.
- Lack of landscaping element on site of the demolition/parking space site across from City Hall.
- 4 months of non-compliance of a signage removal issue by a business owner on Elm St. near the development of the new YSU student apartment housing on Madison Ave.
- Compliance of building material debris in the open storage space/parking area of the Vindicator.
Only 4 board members attended the meeting and the meeting adjourned without discussion of individual reports re: assignments for follow up with the parties identified despite one board member who asked for the updates. We will try again in September.
