As a�oz�e�;��x�� and neighbor of t�ao development, we were hoping for Concept C to be considered. �i�y� would l�ave brau�i�t a needed car�nerc�al propexiy close to home for }�T residents to use for their btis�taesaes. 'il�r� are many lawyers, doctors, iT pro£ess�or�als (etc) and small business owners in the i�ei�f�bor�Zand ti;�l � would appreciate the possibility of walking to work each day. We �;V� heard ��c�t�in� more re�ard� thsg r,c�nc��at. �st�d, now, an overdevelopeduse ofthe land is being proposed. Not only �s it overcrowded, but it does not rc�e�t the cco�zot�ic standard that this valuable land deserves The land i s one hiao�e off Lake �'osep��t�te, It could a�d should eom¢nand housing ��t ux�eis the need of a higher income 'bzacket, It should not be used for low or mid-income standards. Ifallowed to be built as presented, with duplexes and four-�(e� housing in the �1��, it will lessenthe property values in �,e �.re2t. Ifa��a�ved, �t vrill e��tua�ydri�e higher income neighbors away.
