Dear Planning Commission:
I received a post card advising that the Commission would be reviewing
the proposed subdivision of the lot situated across the street from my
residence. The purpose of this letter is to go on record expressing my
opposition to the subdivision.
The property, formerly owned by Dr. Harry Fryer, is an open space
frequented by wildlife including quail; turkeys and tree squirrels. It
saddens me to think that this open space will be degraded by the
construction of additional houses. Serrano Heights has become one of
the main access points to San Luis Mountain. There is a steady stream
of hikers walking up and down the street. Many of those people park
along the side of the street. Things are congested enough without the
addition of even more houses to the neighborhood.
On a more technical level, I am also voicing my opposition to the
developer's request to exempt this project from the Subdivision
Regulations requirement of a minimum street frontage of 20 feet. What
this request comes down to is a request that the Commission simply
ignore this regulation. This strikes me as being highly questionable.
Thank you for considering my objections.
Sincerely,
Dolores Herzog
