COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
My name is Lisen Bonnier. I am a resident at 579 Marsh st, commonly known as Mars st Commons. I live
in one of the lofts directly facing the proposed SLO square project.
I am a strong supporter of the project. I do realize this project will be long to endure, especially with
ongoing construction up to two years, but when it is done, it will be a fine project and a great addition to
our city.
There is a great need for projects like this to come in on this side of town, south. This is what good " in-
fill project" looks like. This project will bring in much needed parking. Please consider two parking floors
to accommodate shopping and neighborhood expansion . This would be a much desired feature. Other
positive things is that this will also include basic grocery shopping and a pedestrian friendly atmosphere.
The project has many attractive features. One is the set back of fourth floor. This will keep on letting
more sun light back in on the streets and light up the city. I like the mixed use of surface material and
the bike racks too. And I am also a strong supporter of mixed uses - commerce, living and recreational
space. It builds stronger Neighbor hoods.
Please support this project as you see fit. I would have spoken in person at the July 17 meeting, but I be
out of town...
Sincerely, lisen Bonnier
