A request for $65,000 in tax money by the Sacred Grace Englewood church has eaten up big portions of the last two Englewood Downtown Development Authority (EDDA) board meetings without a decision, and the quasi-public agency has now scheduled an all-hands policy-making session for May 27 in hopes of settling the questions raised by the grant application. The funds are being sought for exterior improvements at the congregation's newly leased space in the Chase Bank tower as part of the EDDA's Building Improvement Grant program.

The Oxford Pedestrian Bridge — which, to be clear, will carry walkers and bicyclists over Oxford Avenue and not over Santa Fe Drive — is set to open on May 13 with a 4 p.m. ribbon-cutting that is open to the public. The ceremony will be at the north end of the bridge, adjacent to the Oxford/City of Sheridan Light Rail Station.
