More Changes for The Commencement Building

Depending on your perspective, the announcement below of proposed changes to plans for The Commencement building can be seen as either good or bad. New owners, Onward Investors LLC is proposing changes to the development plan; removing the requirement for OCF parking and giving the town cash to make whatever improvements it chooses in leiu of that parking and adding two units within the existing building envelope. A copy of the full plan is available here.

A public hearing will be held on the issue on Tuesday, August 30th at 7 pm at the Joyce Community Center (Ruston School building: 5219 N. Shirley Street). Perhaps the almost vacant shell of a building will finally see life after all...

I can't imagine not having Bennet St re-connected. There should be 30 parking spaces at a minimum on the OCF. If the money is there then do it.

Thanks.
