<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />rage j or j <br /> <br />Leslie Mendez <br /> <br />From: ' <br />Sent: Friday, September 09,20056:40 PM <br />To: Leslie Mendez <br />Subject: PV-131/PADR-1338, Dustin Boyce <br /> <br />Dear Ms. Mendez, <br /> <br />After reviewing Mr, Boyce's proposed plans for 4546 Second Street I have serious concerns that the proposal <br />would have a negative effect on the immediate neighbors and the neighborhood as a whole, <br /> <br />Overall I believe the plans represent excessive development for the subject property. The excessive FAR, <br />encroachment near the right hand property line, overall height of the main home addition, and the excessive <br />height of the accessory structure all result in an overly massive proposed development The resulting structures, <br />if built as proposed will be out of place in the Second Street neighborhood, <br /> <br />Excessive development on the subject property will be particularly noticeable from Second Street since the Boag <br />home (on the right hand side of the Boyce property) is well set back from the street From the street, the bulk of <br />the Boyce house would merge visually with the Boag home and create an overly dense streetscape, <br /> <br />A concern not voiced by staff to date is the narrow driveway along the left side of the property, The eight foot <br />driveway width seems unusually narrow and could present a risk in case emergency apparatus is required to <br />access the rear of the property. Adequate driveway access is particularly important since alternative rear access <br />is limited. <br /> <br />I urge the Zoning Administrator to deny the requested variances. I don't believe the necessary findings can be <br />made to support the applicant's requests, <br /> <br />Thank you for considering these concerns. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Art Dunkley <br />4672 Second Street <br /> <br />9/13/2005 <br />
