On a motion by Commissioner Mattingly, seconded by Commissioner Bollinger, the Commission agreed to modify the motion to clarify the Monument designation would be applied regardless of location and would run with the Monument itself and not the land.
The motion was unanimously approved by roll call.
ii. Berry Parkway Gates - Landmark Application
Chair Barclay stated the residents from Berry Parkway had submitted additional information, which seemed adequate to move forward with a landmark application.
