-2- We -find it interesting that of the neighborhood residents from whom the petitioners secured approvals, most live out of view of the property. So, it has no effect on them. One signee to the petitioners' re-zoning request resides on Oxfpi-d Street completely out of sight of the pro�erty. We also find it interesting that in her petition, Kathleen Ag71e5s stated -- quote -- "A meeting was held with residents of the neiehborhood on June 20th, 2001. Many of the residents were surp:ised that commercial use was not allowed, and were generally supportive of changing the Comprehensive Land Use Plan." End quote. Let�s set the record straight. The ortly people to attend that June 20th Gpen House were myself --�,oger Dunnette--my wife --Jeanette--and Sally Goodroad, our neighbor immediately to the east. None of us supported the re-zoning request, and said so atthetime. So, where this "generally supportive�� sentiment was generated is a mystery to us. The neighbors from whom SCh02'ri Realty secured approvals did not show up to voice those approvals at this Qt�eTi House on June 20th. As a gesture of compromise, we told Kathleen Agness at the June 20th meeting that we had no animosity toward them and would support their remaining in the former F�m�er Music Academy if they could secure from the city a special use oermit� for their use only, with the current zoning. It is ironic that a realtor gave another realtor such poor advice, and that they opened their business based on such advice. (more)
