Property development

  • On May 4, city officials formally approved a zoning application for a project at 1080 and 1099 Olive St. The project requests permission to allow nighttime pressure washing at these addresses after bus service has ended, which requires a noise variance. This approval means that cleaning activities can take place during nighttime hours, outside of regular bus operations. (view application)
