Councilmember Mordo requested further clarification on Lands of Makower, specifically; their request for an exception to the Grading Policy. He expressed his desire to appeal approval of the project for review by the City Council. Mordo noted that he was uncomfortable with the Town's inconsistency with actions regarding the Town's Grading Policy. However, following comments by Planning Commissioners Harpootlian and Partridge on the project and their reasons for voting to approve the exception, he withdrew his appeal. There was a concurrence by the City Council that the Town's grading policy and basement ordinance should be reviewed in the near future by the Planning Commission.
