Stephen Pays the Price

Retired investment broker and resident of the Fifth on Washington Avenue in downtown Royal Oak Stephen Lograsso who has disabilities that require ADA consideration was negatively impacted by the Royal Oak Zoning Board of Appeals decision to waive 100% of the required 81 parking spaces for the 54 dwellings in the proposed 10-story building at 505 S. Lafayette and instead have tenants rely on the 5th and Lafayette parking garage instead - which his caregivers rely on for parking. He would also like to know how a disabled individual living at the new 10-story high rise will cross Lafayette in the wintertime to get to the parking. Hear his story here.
