Last month’s Appearance Review Board approval of revised plans for the proposed Major League Soccer stadium pleased team leaders and city officials after several setbacks and delays over the last few years. Despite the long sought approval of the board, an official appeal has been filed requesting an independent hearing on the decision and further delaying the process. Lawanna Gelzer’s appeal and request for an independent hearing came after she expressed numerous concerns to the Appearance Review Board about the proposal and the impact to the surrounding neighborhood.
