The architect does not disagree with any of these designations. Wayne Youngquist - 3676 S. 2nd St - he supports the designation John Ebersol - nominator - 2581 S. Shore Dr. - he supports the designation Mr. Jarosz moved, seconded by Ms. Keating Kahn, to close the public hearing. There were no objections.
