Subject: 790 Foothill Blvd.
I hope to attend tonight’s meeting, but I wanted to write ahead of time to be sure that the committee knows that I am
opposed to the proposed plan for 790 Foothill Blvd. It is not compatible with the neighborhood apart from the ill‐
approved development across the street at 55 Chorro. There is not a single day that I do not go past that development
and feel SICK with rage that it was approved. Those entire two blocks of Foothill Blvd near that project are already
nearly impossible to navigate because the street is not large enough for developments of this size, and the driveways on
both sides of the street with a single turn lane in the middle of the street cause near accidents on a continual basis. The
view sheds are being obliterated. The retail in the area can’t even accommodate the number of people currently
housed there, before you even add this many more units. And the description of this as affordable housing is an
absolute SHAM! Call it what it is… luxury student housing.
I do not support this project.
