CB 11 to Discuss Variance for Chevrolet Dealer, Tree Pruning at November Meeting

Community Board 11 will hold a hearing on a variance for a local Chevrolet dealer and hear a report on a tree pruning effort in the community at its Nov. 4 meeting.

The board will also discuss capital and expense budget submissions for Fiscal Year 2015.
