City staff presented an exterior renovation for La Terriere School that would add an open "sky terrace" above an existing one‑story building, including a pergola, stairs and an elevator for access; the terrace plan shows rectangular arrays described as solar panels. The project was first introduced to staff in October 2023.

A city staff member presented an exterior renovation proposal for La Terriere School during the Nov. 18 special City Commission meeting, describing a new open "sky terrace" to be built above an existing one‑story building.

The staff member said the project, first introduced to city staff in October 2023, would add a pergola referred to in the materials as the "sky terrace," include stairs and an elevator to access the roof terrace and show rectangular terrace areas identified as solar panels. "The approval that the applicant is requesting from the board is to construct again, the sky terrace," the staff member said while showing renderings.

City materials shown at the meeting place the terrace along an interior property line and identify the location of stairs, elevator access and the pergola roof plan. The staff member noted the construction would be an addition atop the current one‑story roof; no building permit or final decision was recorded during the meeting.

Commission members did not take a vote on the project during the special meeting; staff said the project had been in the review process since October 2023. The commission did not provide a timetable or next steps on the record during this session.
