Building and code staff flagged multiple Main Street signage compliance items, announced the pending renaming of 217 Main Street to L.I. McGrath's, and noted required dumpster guards at 317 Main Street and the Nutty Irishman.

Village staff told trustees on Oct. 7 that several downtown signage items require enforcement and review.

Fellman also reported that 217 Main Street will be renamed L.I. McGrath's and that the business will seek a Special Use Permit to operate as an Irish pub. The board discussed the Nutty Irishman and 317 Main Street, where dumpster construction is underway but a second dumpster guard and container are still needed to meet code requirements. No applications were on file yet for The Pour Authority's planned move adjacent to 335 Main Street, the minutes show.
