All:

PCPC Agenda item 5 downzones the 200 block of St. Marks Square from its current multi-family classification to single-family. This remapping will help to preserve the integrity of this existing single- family block (i.e. prevent these houses from being cut up into apartments).

This rezoning was initiated by the resident owners of this block.

I don't think so. I believe that this one is the attempt to re-zone the old Rite-Aid site at 43rd and Walnut. The Hotel is being moved to 41st and Walnut and is already commercially zoned.

Spruce Hill should listen and be aware of what is going on here. There was a previous attempt to get a State Liquor Store placed there, but it was successfully fought on the basis of improper zoning on the site and a couple of other features. This Planning Commission hearing might be an attempt to circumvent the zoning code by actually changing the code from residential to commercial and then many things will be allowed there by right.

But I might be wrong

Looks like Number 5 might be the NEW Campus Inn?
