Mixed commercial and residential is the most efficient use of this space, and the best way to build community. It will also improve property values in the surrounding area.

RECEIVED DEC 15 2022 as -00a3 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT From: i Sent: Thursday, December 15, 2022 9:57 AM To: DRC Public Comment Subject: Comment on USE22-0093 I don't have the full scope of the project, but I'm under the impression that residential units will be built over commercial spaces. My concerns are regarding parking and the impact to the neighborhood. For the residential: I personally think all units should have 2 reserved parking spaces, not including their garages. Because people use garages for storage. Unless you are making homes with loads of storage, but I doubt that. When people move in to a new home they bring their cars. There needs to be space for them to be able to park in front of their home at any hour of the day. You may say that once the businesses are closed, then that parking opens up. But there should be no time limits on when a homeowner or renter can park by their home. What about people who work from home? What about shift workers? These people also have a right to have access to convenient parking. The business owners also need to be able to provide safe parking for themselves, any number of employees they wish to hire, and the patrons of the business. If you think that those cars can simply "park in the neighborhood" well, Amapoa is already saturated with the businesses along highway 41 doing just that. Madrone brings in loads of workers and they all park in front of our homes. The same goes for every business between Portola and Curbaril: they have employees parking on a street that already has high density housing with limited parking. And as a side note, they rarely behave well: they speed down Amapoa because they are late for work, they slam doors, play loud music, and park in front of our mailboxes. If there is not enough parking for the development, are you suggesting that the employees or the homeowners/renters of the proposed units park on Curbaril? For whatever reason, people think they should speed on that very short section of Curbaril. Will it be safe to park there? Will you be making free parking spaces out there that allow for overnight parking? If not, you will be forcing people to look for free overnight parking onto our street, Amapoa, where it's already difficult enough for the people who live on this street to find parking, especially on trash night and day. Don't forget, high density housing means high density trash cans. I am in support of this project ONLY if you have realistic parking spaces.
