Appeals board asked to OK trees, not parking, at old library site
The Record and West Second streets property owners asked the city board of zoning appeals for a spring variance to keep trees and shrubs and avoid adding on-site parking. Attorney Richard Burgee argued existing green space should be preserved citing nearby meter parking. About 20 residents supported keeping green areas, noting building repairs and historic sensitivity. The board took the matter under advisement and recently denied a daycare center request at 00 Young Place amid citizen opposition.
