2 | P a g e <br /> <br />Like many of the arguments against overdevelopment like the residents objecting to 2525 North Main, we are <br />not opposed to development and improvements to vacant underutilized lots that have been a problem However <br />like other residents in more affluent areas, we would like the same consideration to protect our neighborhood <br />integrity and to preserve our neighborhood from deterioration. <br /> <br />The neighborhood suffers because of the lack of parking spaces on our streets. The crowding of six residences <br />on a single family residence lot does not give adequate open space, setbacks to adjacent homes to afford <br />privacy, and encourages the kind of hodge-podge development we have seen on the eastside of town. Moreover, <br />it encourages more rental units. <br /> <br />The area around 17th and English has an existing parking problem. Residents and or their guests or roommates <br />from the apartment complex on 17th and King across from the post office park on English therefore denying use <br />of parking space to existing homeowners. <br />The scope and size of the proposed subdivision should be categorically denied. It is just wrong for that lot and <br />the neighborhood. We recommend that the Planning Commission and City Council scaled back the project to a <br />more reasonable two single family residence with proper setbacks, parking and enclosed garages, and yards to <br />conform to residential characteristic of the single family residential (R-1) zoned area. Restricted should be <br />placed not to allow further subdivisions. <br /> <br />Should you have any question, call me at 714-835-8925. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Ruby Gonzales Woo <br /> <br />Ruby Gonzales Woo <br />President <br />
