Dear Councilpersons,
$3500 to appeal a City decision? I thank City Staff and the Council for their hard work, but none are infallible.
I had experience with my neighborhood association appealing the construction of the Monterey Hotel (which
later became the La Quinta) on the old 1865 restaurant site. The Staff report was full of errors and
misinterpretations of City ordinances. We paid the appeals fee which had then been recently upped to what we
thought was an excessive $745. The result was we got a lot of the mistakes corrected and a better, more
compatible project was built.
Please do not okay the outrageous fee increase.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Bob Tedone
