We received our demolition permit Wednesday, June 23rd despite Sandra Bussin’s last attempt to prevent the approval. It’s worth noting that it was Sandra that suggested we get the permits and demolish the house prior to the June 30th Meeting.
Given the permits we had received I asked Sandra Bussin that she let us know if 204 Beech would still be assessed and reviewed on June 30th. She said they were looking into it and would let me know as soon as they became aware if it was necessary. As usual we never got a call back. She did however take the time to email others of the news, including Kirsten Campbell, the woman who lives in Germany. Her letter talked about how she had rescinded the motion and that there was nothing more she could do to save the little stucco house with the turret (which, by the way, was originally a wood sided home – the turret even appears to have been added on decades after construction).
As of this morning, the little pink cottage with the turret is officially history. We are ecstatic and ready to move on with the build.
Thanks to all of you for your support, friendship and camaraderie – We’re lucky to have you.
A sincere thanks for all of you that attended the Town Hall and for those who were planning on joining us June 30 and July 7 at City Hall meetings. Needless to say, 204 Beech will no longer be on the agenda.
