Planning for a Beat-Down
A heavy agenda at the Planning Commission tonight.
By Wells Dunbar, 2:57PM, Tue. Feb. 27, 2007
The city's Planning Commission is in for some shit tonight: Neighborhood power broker Jeff Jack and SaveTownLake.org are inveighing against final passage of the Star Riverside development's request to skirt the Waterfront Overlay Ordinance. With a staff recommendation, they're facing an uphill battle.
On top of that, the Bouldin Meadows development is also up for final presentation – word is that the neighbors will present more evidence about the flooding danger there.
It's a rough one tonight.
