Alderman Waguespack – State of Ward/City presentation
In keeping with SLN’s September meeting tradition, the Alderman will be addressing the SLN membership on neighborhood, Ward and City-wide issues.

Zoning Change – 3025 N. Southport
The owner wishes to reestablish a dwelling unit above the detached garage at this property under the new Additional Dwelling Unit (ADU) Pilot Program passed by the City Council in May 2021.

A zoning change from B3-2(business) to RM-4.5 or RT-4(residential) is required to apply for the ADU.
