Highland Park Planning Board approves memorialization of redevelopment resolution for Block 1704 lots
Summary
The Highland Park Planning Board approved amended minutes and unanimously moved to memorialize Resolution p2025-02, designating portions of Block 1704 (Lots 43, 46 and 49) as areas in need of redevelopment with condemnation; board members also corrected several typos and name spellings in the draft documents.
The Highland Park Planning Board voted to approve amended minutes and to memorialize Resolution p2025-02, which designates parcels in Block 1704 (Lots 43, 46 and 49) as areas in need of redevelopment with condemnation.
The actions took place during a short meeting in which members reviewed draft minutes from Feb. 13, 2025, agreed on several wording and typographical fixes, and approved the memorialization language for the redevelopment determination.
Board members raised a series of editorial corrections to the draft minutes and the proposed resolution before voting. Corrections discussed included removing an incorrect lot number from a list on page three of the draft, changing plural/singular references to seating counts in a restaurant description, and fixing multiple typographical errors. Board members also noted spelling corrections to a person’s name and to a firm name in the resolution text.
After those edits were proposed, a motion to approve the minutes as amended was made and seconded; a roll-call vote recorded affirmative votes from Mr. Chen, Mr. Hale, Mr. Ho, Mr. Linares, Mr. Nguyen, Mr. Perlman, Mr. Sterling Cardenau, Mr. Williams and Miss Ham. The motion carried.
The board then considered a resolution memorializing action taken at a prior meeting to designate Block 1704, Lots 43, 46 and 49 as areas in need of redevelopment with condemnation (Resolution p2025-02). Members reviewed language in the draft resolution and suggested wording fixes, including corrections to a case citation appearing on page four and replacement of an informal word in the body text.
Following the edits, a motion to approve the resolution memorialization was made and seconded. A roll-call vote again recorded affirmative votes from the same named members listed above; the resolution was memorialized.
No public commenters attended in person, and the board closed the public comment period. The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn.
