Summary

Peter Nagrod introduced Resolution 2026-05 to reverse a prior allowance of driveway access for several lots on McCauley Street; the council deferred action by unanimous consensus to allow response from the property owners (the Challstroms).

The council introduced Resolution 2026-05 on May 18, which addresses driveway access to McCauley Street for Block 18, Lots 2–6 (including 503 McCauley). The Planning Commission brought the item forward after learning of a sales contract; the resolution would reverse the earlier Resolution 1992-03 that had allowed use of the Sixth Avenue walkway as a driveway for 503 McCauley. Mayor Compton recommended deferring the vote to allow public comment and a response from the property owners identified as the Challstroms.

By unanimous consensus the council deferred consideration of Resolution 2026-05 to the June Town Council meeting. The transcript records that the item was introduced and discussion focused on permitting history and the need to hear from affected property owners before acting.
