    May 12, 2026

    ·Scranton, PA
    Other

    This document records responses from City of Scranton administration to questions posed by council members during a May 5, 2026 meeting, prepared on May 11, 2026. Council President Tom Schuster inquired about a $58,000 line item increase plus an additional $5,000 increase for St. Cats & Dogs in the 2026 budget, requesting a progress report and status update on the organization's usage of the Ash Street property; the City stated it has requested an update from St. Cats & Dogs. Schuster also asked about the Davis Street Apartment project on the 3100 Block of Cedar Avenue, which holds a five-year planning commission approval; the city clarified that no permits or plans have been submitted and the project cannot move forward without passage of a one-way ordinance that the planning commission made a condition of approval. Council member Dr. Jessica Rothchild raised concerns about tree cutting on private property in the Upper East Mountain area and received clarification that the Shade Tree Commission only regulates city rights-of-way and city-owned properties, with no prohibition on private owners removing trees from their own property. Dr. Rothchild also commended the Robinson Park project and raised two maintenance issues: gravel from a drain area being kicked onto the playground equipment, and worn ground beneath swings creating a safety hazard.

    Plan Baton Rouge Phase II is a 2009 master plan update and economic strategic plan for downtown Baton Rouge that builds upon the original Plan Baton Rouge, which had achieved 80 percent implementation of its recommended projects over the previous decade. The Phase II plan proposes an economically-based urban design vision focused on making downtown a more vibrant area through alternative development incentives, strategies for adding housing, improving regional mobility, enhancing public spaces and infrastructure, and "greening" downtown while leveraging cultural and social amenities. The plan was developed by Mayor-President Melvin L. "Kip" Holden in collaboration with multiple sponsors including the Baton Rouge Area Foundation and Downtown Development District, as well as urban design and planning firms including Chan Krieger Sieniewicz of Cambridge.
