Owner outlines renovation and facade plans; board sets Oct. 22 status for Kennedy Avenue property
Summary
Owner Amada Gallardo told the board she plans to convert a former mechanic shop and indicated upstairs hotel rooms will be rented; the board set a status hearing for Oct. 22 to check progress, with an interim three-month check agreed.
Amada Gallardo, who identified herself to the board as the owner of the property at 6102–04 Kennedy Avenue, told members she has plans to convert a former mechanic shop (about 3,000 square feet) and mentioned 22 rooms upstairs in the adjacent hotel. She said she has applied for the façade program and has selected a contractor from multiple bids.
Board members discussed timeline expectations. Gallardo said she hoped to finish in roughly six months but accepted a three-month status return; the board set a status date of Oct. 22 for a progress report. Board members encouraged coordination with zoning and economic development and said the city was pleased with visible progress to date.
The owner thanked the board and left with the Oct. 22 status date; no formal approvals or funding commitments were made at this hearing beyond scheduling and program application references.
