Summary

The Board of Public Service recommended seven special events be declared festival zones, approved signage and utility requests subject to conditions, and denied a sidewalk cafe application for Tigress Mexican Restaurant at 5800 Gravois Avenue because the proposal would not preserve a 4-foot unobstructed pedestrian walkway.

The St. Louis Board of Public Service recorded multiple street, signage and events recommendations at its June 30 meeting, including declaration of seven special events as festival zones and conditional approvals of several street and utility permits.

The office of special events listed and the board recorded recommendations for the following festival zones: Golden Harvest Half Marathon St. Louis on Sept. 26 along the St. Louis Riverfront Trail; Music at the Intersection July 17—618 across the Grand Center District; Dogtown Doggie Dash on Sept. 13 on Clayton Avenue; Delish on Delmar Main on Oct. 17 on Delmar Boulevard; the St. Louis Bourbon Festival on Oct. 9 on Cherokee Street; Red Lancer City Night Market on July 18 on Euclid Avenue; and the Gateway Fashion Show on July 3 on North 14th Street.

The director of streets recommended approval, subject to conditions, for building-mounted signage at 2501 South Kingshighway submitted by Express Valet Cleaners and for banners submitted by St. John Nepomuk for placement on city-owned light poles along Lafayette Avenue. The board also recorded a joint recommendation from the directors of public safety and utilities to approve a Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission request to adjust property lines at 1521 and 1525—627 South 18th Street (city block 0379), and a joint recommendation from the directors of public utilities and streets to extend three-phase electrical service to a new apartment at 2344 South 18th Street (applicant Emma Missouri). AT&T application no. 117 for 1200 Chestnut was listed as approved subject to conditions.

The board recommended denial of Tigress Mexican Restaurant's application for a sidewalk cafe at 5800 Gravois Avenue due to insufficient space to maintain the required 4-foot unobstructed pedestrian walkway.
