The commission reviewed an application for a storefront renovation at 121 North Meridian Street. The applicant proposed a facade renovation, which the commission supported, though they requested alternative brick selections for the project to better align with the historic character of the surrounding area. The commission granted conditional approval, allowing the applicant to move forward with the project while requiring them to return for final approval on the specific brick choice. Additionally, the commission began reviewing an application for the demolition of the property at 212 South Lebanon Street.
