Playground - Approval.
Staff Recommendations:
The HDLC Guidelines require playground equipment to be at least 20' from the front façade and side property lines of corner lots. The proposed playground equipment is approximately 300' from both State St and Tchoupitoulas St. As the playground meets the Guidelines and is set back significantly from the street, Staff recommends approval of the application.
