What: Urban Renewal Authority work on the North College corridor: an existing-conditions study around Drake Road and College Avenue, an amendment to the College/Drake plan, property acquisitions on North College, the 2027 URA budget and the North College Good Neighbor Coalition framework.
Where it stands: On September 24 the Authority had a public hearing on Resolution 169 (supplemental budget for the study and plan amendment) and Resolution 170 ($800,000 supplemental appropriation to buy 1220 N College Ave). On October 22 it took up Resolution 171 (term sheet), a public hearing on Resolution 172 (property acquisition on North College) and Resolution 173 (2027 URA budget), followed by a work session on the Good Neighbor Coalition charter. Outcomes of the votes were not read; no minutes are posted.
Next: The Historic Preservation Commission is to consult on 1220 N College Ave (the URA-owned El Palomino Motel) on November 18.
