n another chapter of the ongoing drama over 291 Evandale Ave., the City Council on Tuesday rejected the owner's attempt to re-roof the run-down apartment complex there, which has stood vacant with blue tarps covering leaky roofs ever since a redevelopment plan failed almost two years ago.

Paul Hogan, attorney for Summerhill Apartments owner Sal Teresi, argued that the city's ordinances allow a re-roofing permit for the building because it is not receiving major changes to the exterior, and because the site is not undergoing a change in land use.

But due to a long list of code violations, safety issues and neighborhood concerns about the complex, city staffers say, Teresi needs to go through an unusual discretionary requirement -- a several-week-long "design review process" -- before any permits are issued.
