Two weeks ago, more than 150 residents of the Fletcher and Maynard area signed a petition to the city council and school committee asking that the Maynard name be kept.
A meeting with Riverside residents about the proposed museum this summer did not stop residents from supporting the Loose Petition, which aims to put a moratorium on all development on the southern edge of the campus for 18 months.
The council will most likely approve the petition in the next month.
But while the Ad Board dealt with 2,150 "routine and special petition" cases in 1999-2000--like requests for make-up exams--it also oversaw 136 discipline cases.
"[The rezoning petition] reflects an enormous amount of thinking on where and how the city will grow in the future," said councilor Henrietta Davis.
