The proposal for One Lakewood Place has received unanimous approval from Planning Commission and ABR after 10 months of review. Director Sylvester introduced a substitute version of Ordinance 36-18 which includes two parcels on Marlowe Ave. that Carnegie had not yet acquired at the time Ordinance 36-18 was drafted. Including these parcels in the site design was always the plan. Purchase of the properties was a private transaction between the homeowners and Carnegie. Planning Commission Chair Lou McMahon addressed Council to praise the project. He stated that the project was the most comprehensive, engaged and well thought out that had been presented to Planning Commission during his five years serving on the Commission. He commended Carnegie for its engagement with and responsiveness to the neighbors on Marlowe Ave. He stated that each version of the project that came before the Commission was responsive to the neighbors. He remarked that he has been very impressed by the work from staff, residents, and the developer and that the work has resulted in an extraordinary product. Vice President Anderson noted that Planning Commission approved the project with 7-8 conditions and asked for an update on the status of the conditions. 1
