Summary

Commissioners kept item 2654 (505 Granary Street, 'Mother Superior House' – Robert Lee Blaffer Foundation) on the agenda because the applicant is in preliminary stages; the commission flagged questions about how water will be handled where a planned ADA ramp meets the historic building.

At the start of the meeting the chair said item 2654 (505 Granary Street, known as the Mother Superior House and associated with the Robert Lee Blaffer Foundation) remained on the agenda because the foundation is in the early stages of the project and has not returned with finalized plans.

The chair told commissioners, "There were some questions about how they would handle the water between the ADA ramp that they're going to install and the historic building," and said she wanted to keep the item on the agenda until the applicant provides more detail. No motion or vote occurred on this item; the commission deferred action pending more specific plans about drainage and ramp interface.
