RE: NCOD draft response
Dear Mayor Andrus and Commissioners:
Thank you for your efforts on updating the Neighborhood Conservation Overlay District. We write
today to give our support to the Alternative 1 Recommendation, found on page 15-16 of the
October 23 2018 draft of the NCOD, specifically:
North 7th Street is all out of the NCOD, and the adjacency boundary line will not include any of
the Midtown District.
We appreciate the creation of the B2M zoning for our district and wish to maintain its streamlined
design and implementation. Thank you for continuing to assist with alleviating blight.
Respectfully,
Andrew Cetraro, Chair
Midtown Urban Renewal Board
