Possible Street Closure

From Aaron Weissman, chair of Neighborhood Council 7:

Friends;
One of the items that is going to come up at the City Commission meeting tonight is a proposal by the County for the City to "vacate" 4th Street, between 2nd and 3rd Ave N, so that the County can use it for additional parking. The details are sketchy now, but this might result in permanent closure of this section of 4th Street, much like the closure on 3rd Street for Davidson Plaza.

The street in question is between the County Annex and the County Courthouse. I have attached an image of the area in question to this email.

The County is asking for this closure as part of a land swap the city is requesting for land near the soon-to-be completed Federal courthouse.

I will be at the meeting tonight. If you are interested in the issue, I encourage you to attend as well. In any case, before the meeting, can you send me your thoughts about this proposal?

Thanks,
Aaron
