There’s no need for the LPC to weigh in on bus shelter installation–I applaud the proposed rule change. Installing bus shelters is perfectly appropriate for any location, including those in historic districts, and should be accomplished with a minimum of bureaucracy and process, so that we can install as many as possible.

I think it is absurd that you can propose to add bus shelters in a Landmark District without consideration for the historical aesthetic of the neighborhood, meanwhile you make it exorbitantly expensive for residents of those neighborhoods to appropriately maintain their property in line worth the historic designs that LPC to approve. I strongly oppose this change.
