MANNO SEEKS TO RAZE
ALL, PART OF EX-AGWAY
COOPERSTOWN
Property owner Mike Manno is asking the village Historic Preservation & Architectural Review Board for permission to demolish all or part of 28 Railroad Ave., the former hops barn he renovated at the corner of Glen Avenue.
H-PARB chair Teresa Drerup said the application, delivered at the Feb. 10 H-PARB meeting, called for “full or partial” demolition, but contained no additional details. “He didn’t come to the meeting,” she said of the building’s owner.
Reached by telephone, Manno deferred comment for the time being.
A public hearing on the demolition permit has been scheduled at the next H-PARB meeting at 5 p.m. Tuesday, April 14, in Village Hall. The permit application is on file in the Village Clerk’s Office.
