The full story

Staff told the commission there had been no known progress on repairs to the skylight of the former First Baptist rotunda at 802 Green Street, despite a COA approval that allowed repairs and included a 90-day update condition. Planning staff said a preservation/restoration group from Savannah had made inquiries about permitting, but no building or mothballing permits had been applied for and no on-site work had started.
