The June 18 Ballard Avenue Landmark Board election was a sweep for Conor Byrne.

Joseph Herrin, owner of the Conor Byrne building, beat Steve Mako, owner of the BalMar building, in the race for position one, reserved for property owners..

Patrick Wellnitz, owner of Conor Byrne Pub, beat John Burreson, owner of Old Town Alehouse, in the election for position two, reserved for business and property owners.

There were no candidates for position three, which is reserved for district residents, so the position will be filled by a mayoral appointment and city council confirmation.

The Ballard Avenue Landmark District was established in 1976 to protect the unique architectural heritage of the street.
