Scott Basinger's request for a variance at the Chard building on Main Street waiving the city code requirement of providing 1.5 off-street parking spaces per apartment was approved, with the caveat of up to five apartments. The variance does not change any parking limits on Pomeroy's streets.
The site of a decommissioned reservoir on the hill above 17th street consisting of approximately 7,000 square feet and an old building was discussed at the meeting. The council agreed to sell the property at the going rate for pastureland of $330 per acre if they received an offer. Although there has been interest raised, no offer has been officially made to the council.
Bids for the 2023 summer sealcoat project will be discussed at a continuance of the meeting on April 17.
