Curb ss ' s home is frequented by children from the area going to <br />and from our neighborhood elementary; school. We do not want strangers in this <br />area. <br />we have, in the past, been targets of many burglaries* we have worked hard to <br />look out for our neighbors know the cars in the area know the patterns of <br />the- citizens as pant of an active neighborhood watch. Commercial traf fie is <br />counter to these efforts@ <br />We are happy to have the Curtiss family join our neighborhood, we would like <br />them to be happy here. Howeverp we are not happy to have them bring commercial <br />traffic into our neighborhood. Comercial space is available w=ithin walking <br />distance of the Miss home. If Ms. Curtiss wishes to operate a beauty salon, <br />we would weld her as a new small business owner in one of the nearb.-retail <br />and commercial establishments o we .do not want. that establishment next door <br />we strongly urge the Council to deny Mse Curtissf request. we further ask <br />you to review and charge the city ordinance which allows client centered <br />home businesses within residential neighborhoods - -with or without special <br />permit requests —grandfathering in existing business so as not to cause <br />hardship-@ <br />Sincerely, <br />Tamara McGehee <br />Richard McGehee <br />
