I am very concerned about how close VIDA's proposed roof deck entertainment would be to residents, especially those in 2B08 and 2B09. I'm also concerned about the proposed hours, which is later than normal outdoor hours in our neighborhood. My colleague, Will Stephens has been working with VIDA to try to find some solution for neighbor's concerns over late night noise. I will not vote to support anything in this case that would contribute to the late night noise issue around this establishment.
At the meeting, I will also be presenting progress from the Transportation and Public Infrastructure Committee, which I chair. Check back here for more updates.
