Subject: 71 Palomar
Dear City of SLO Advisory,
I am a local Real Estate broker and am aware of the project that is under
review at 71 Palomar in San Luis Obispo. Being in real estate, I
understand first hand the supply and demand shortage that exists withiin
our community in both the rental and purchase markets. While in am
aware there are sensitive issues with relation to the historical resource on
site, further neglect to the structure will likely lead to its demise in the
coming years. Once that resource is gone, the lot will be open to higher
density development well beyond the current applicant's submittal. Please
use this opportunity to make an intelligent choice to preserve the historical
asset within our community by granting the current applicant approval for
this conservative project. Additionally, you will be allowing for housing
units for both affordable and market rate units which will contribute to
reducing the frenzied demand. It is unsustainable for our community and
we need to stabilize our local housing situation one project at a time. I
believe in our community, adhering to our current zoning ordinances is
key in preserving the community as it has been designed by our
predecessors. I am in support of this project and welcome the economic
impact as well as the aesthetic improvements to the existing site.
Thank you for your consideration,
DANNY SULLIVAN
