A new Mexican restaurant can move forward at 148 Columbia Street, although any outdoor café area would require a separate city permit. The board also approved use of the former firehouse at 26 Washington Avenue for medical-equipment storage, vehicle parking, and office space, plus a 1,200-square-foot office at 130 Remsen Street. For proposed developments at 330–342 North Mohawk Street and 222–230 Remsen Street/23 Columbia Street, the board declared its intent to serve as the lead agency for required environmental review; those actions were not final project approvals.
