How many banks indeed? Should this bank get relief? This bank wants to build where Dunkin' Donuts was. the lot is a logistical nightmare. If they can't fit, shouldn't they just go someplace else? After all it's not like there aren't more of this same bank close by in neighboring communities, right?

Applicant: Main Line Health Real Estate, LP
Property: 125 S. Bryn Mawr Avenue, Bryn Mawr, PA 19010
(Election District #10). Bryn Mawr Medical District-3/BMMD-3

A building permit was recently issued for a parking structure conditioned upon the installation of window frames consistent with Land Development Conditions of Approval. The applicant is appealing the interpretation of the Director of Building and Planning, pursuant to §155-110, that window frames in the parking structure must be installed. The applicant is requesting that the Zoning Hearing Board reverse the permit condition imposed by the Director of Building and Planning, and require the re-issuance of the building permit without the condition that window frames in the parking structure are required.
