I have asked this question but didn't get an answer.

From Bella Re the dance studio, the first I heard of it was after it was gone. Knowing now what seems to be the code, my guess is that it would not be a permitted use, and had I known about it, I would have reported it. Re the nursery…

From "Resident" The following opinion refers to various responses by Dianne Lawrence to issues pertaining to the charter school at the McCarty Church. The CD-10 has been maligned again; and new, reputation-damaging, and possibly even career ending allegations, if true, have been made about the City’s civil servants. This does…

Not sure what kind of substantiation “resident” requires. Two people reported that a city agent told them that someone from CD10 called and told the office to stop assisting Save Our Future’s effort to move forward in securing permits. I personally have had city agents tell me that they do…
