The Richmond Commission of Architectural Review voted to approve an amended consent agenda that folded the entire docket into consent, including the application for Pink Street and items on East Franklin Street and West Grace Street. The vote carried with all members present voting yes except one commissioner who recused on a single item.

At the start of the meeting staff said the consent agenda included item number 12605 East Franklin Street, item 961965967 Pink Street and item 32614 West Grace Street. During the meeting the commission voted to move item 412 East Franklin Street from the regular agenda to the consent agenda; commissioners then approved the amended consent agenda.

The final roll call on approval recorded Commissioners Utsma, Greer, Hill, Moore, Knott and Rodriguez and Commissioner Striffler voting yes. Commissioner Easterling was recorded as recused for item number 1. The commission did not state additional conditions or provide a separate recorded vote by item in the transcript.

During public comment Nancy Lambert urged the commission to consider environmental greening for alleys such as Pink Street rather than purely "monetary greening," and recommended permeable or semi-permeable surfacing to reduce runoff into the combined sewer and drainage system. Lambert cited Carrington Road cobblestones and semi-permeable alley examples in the 2300 block of East Clay and the alley between S and T streets as precedents.

Lambert said, "I would hope that the commission would place more emphasis on the environmental greening of these areas rather than the monetary greening." The commission did not record a formal staff response to that comment in the transcript.

With the vote, the amended consent agenda items on the meeting docket were approved and the meeting was adjourned.
