<br />
<br />The City Manager submitted the following letter:
<br />
<br /> "At your November 13, 1984 meeting, Mr. John O. McGlynn's request for a parking variance
<br />(Catholic Club) was deferred in order to ascertain a definitive schedule for adaptive reuse of
<br />the building and indication of financial participation for the proposed parking.lot behind
<br />the 1846 Courthouse.
<br />
<br /> Pat Coffield and Ted Masters have discussed these concerns with Mr. McGlynn and it would
<br />appear in the best interest of all parties that the request be deferred until your May 14, 198
<br />meeting. Mr. McGlynn by then will have a better understanding on what he will do with the
<br />basement and first floor of the building. His preferred use is for mixed use (restaurant and
<br />shops), but his fallback plan is for additional apartments. The second and third floors would
<br />be renovated for seven (7) apartments. Between now and May, I can work with the owners for
<br />the Colony building and Mr. McGlynn to finalize negotiations for the construction of the pro-
<br />posed parking lot (shared costl .
