Stevens Square group voices support for developer; neighborhood engagement highlighted
Summary
A representative of the Stevens Square Community Organization spoke in support of the demolition-and-redevelopment plan, saying the developer engaged with the neighborhood and preserved south-side green space in revised plans.
Adam Schneider, greening and development coordinator for the Stevens Square Community Organization, testified during public comment in support of the demolition application and the developer's proposal.
Schneider said Diversified Equities Corporation engaged early with the neighborhood, attended the organization's March meeting, incorporated neighborhood feedback and preserved the south-side green space as part of the plans. He said the neighborhood development committee looks forward to guiding the project to best serve the Stevens Square–Loring Heights area.
The record also notes two written public comments: one letter of support from a neighborhood group and one letter of objection from a neighbor; both were provided to commissioners in the meeting packet.
