Memorandum
Approval of this resolution will allow for the construction of a 6-story, 14,516-square foot residential building for a gross floor area total of 28,172-square feet, which includes the existing Sava's restaurant and office space on site. No vehicular parking is required nor proposed as part of this development.
Petition Summary:

The City Planning Commission, at its meeting of October 1, 2019, recommended approval of this request.
