  •   Voting delayed on proposal for North Shore Master Plan, amphitheater
    27 May 2009

    A long line of protesters who took turns lashing out against a proposed North Shore Master Plan and amphitheater on Tuesday forced the City Planning Commission to delay voting on them for at least two weeks.

    More than 150 people crammed into the hearing in the John P. Robin Civic Building on Ross Street, Downtown, many carrying signs and wearing Northside United shirts. Others stood outside and chanted, demanding that North Shore developers agree to a Community Benefits Agreement that would ensure jobs and other benefits for residents.
