The White House in, 26 Chestnut St., may be redesignated as a hotel this evening.

COOPERSTOWN – The Village Board will hold two public hearings at 7 tonight at 22 Main, and perhaps act on one or both of the plans under consideration, according to Trustee Cindy Falk:

  • Diagonal parking on lower Pioneer Street.

Option 3, which resulted from neighbors’ objections at last month’s meeting, would shift diagonal parking to the north. Under the previous plan, headlights would be shining into the livingroom of the Leist family at 5 Pioneer St.; Option 3  eliminates that.  It also creates three parallel-parking spaces across from the Leists, raising the number of parking places from 23 in Option 2 to 26 in Option 3  Or the trustees could go back to Option 1, the traditional all-parallel-parking scheme.

  • Redesignation the White House Inn, 46 Chestnut St., as a hotel.
