SPAARC to hear Pres. Homes, Com Ed Prairie Ave. plans

In addition to the Kendall College site proposal (see story above), the Site Plan and Appearance Review Committee will hear on Feb. 24 about two other projects of interest to the Central Street community.
 
Item 4 on the agenda is the proposal of Presbyterian Homes to replace 51 1950s-era independent living cottages with 54 new cottages, and to construct a new apartment building consisting of 32 2-bedroom units.
 
The next item on the agenda is Com Ed's plans for installing new overhead equipment on the 2600 and 2700 blocks of Prairie Avenue, and to replace three existing 35' poles with taller poles. The pole at 2723 Prairie is proposed to be moved from the alley to the parkway.
 
These items are scheduled for 3:10 and 3:40, respectively, at Rm. 2404 in the Lorraine H. Morton Civic Center.
