- What happened
- City Council approval is sought for a mediation settlement that permits the Ashley Hall Foundation to demolish a structure at 148 Smith Street, provided no eligible party relocates it by November 30, 2026. The BAR-S previously denied the demolition request.
- Why it matters
- If the structure is not relocated, demolition contractors will be needed to remove the existing building, foundation, and debris. Site work contractors will be needed for final site clearing after demolition.
- Timing
- City Council approval is pending. If approved, the demolition could occur any time after November 30, 2026, if no party undertakes relocation. A demolition permit will still be required.
