TAB inquired about
concerns that funds and support for expanded residential may be a challenge.
There is a lack of metrics available to balance new development against
expected surge of repossessed/foreclosed houses and requests are being
considered with no available information on depth of need for amenities,
schools, parks, etc. Staff advised they have no such information but share the
concern.
IV. COMMENTS BY THE GENERAL PUBLIC None

the wake of more than a decade of implied consent acceptance. All of these
technical violations are in plan view from the street. The neighborhood is
transitional and this applicant is among those who have improved properties.
There are no complaints from neighbors. When informed of the violation the
applicant, a new owner immediately applied for this action to become legal on

to demolish would set in motion a series of forced demolitions destructive to
the community.
