Dear CHC,
RECEIVED
CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO
FEB 2 7 2017
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
urge your denial of the proposed Verizon Wireless telecommunications facility at 1020 Railroad Ave in the
City's Historic Railroad District. The applicant's proposed 6 foot tall antennas, rising 8.5 feet from the
roofline of an existing building, is incompatible with the Railroad Historic District Guidelines.
As the staff report indicates, the Railroad District Historic Plan requires that new structures be
architecturally compatible with the district's prevailing historic character. The proposed plan is not
compatible with the character and style of the this historic district and in fact introduces new architectural
styles and elements not in character with the guidelines that are not proportional to the existing building.
Your duty is to enforce our city's design guidelines and preserve the character of our city's
historic districts. Please deny this project as it does not conform to the guidelines required in the Railroad
Historic District.
Thank you.
John Grady
Resident in the Railroad Historic District
San Luis Obispo, CA
