Building alterations questioned in Historic District

[Submitted photo]

Zoning and Planning Officer Jeff Helm (above, right)  talks to a worker at Clean Quarters laundromat Wednesday night about a possible ordinance violation. Wood trim was reportedly removed from the building's exterior and replaced with plastic and painted over, constituting a violation in the borough's historic district. No permit had been issued for the project, and the alterations were not reviewed by the Historic Architectural Review Board. The building is located at 207 Locust Street.
