Subject: 516 Deines Ct. developement
Dear Mr. Olt, My name is Alyce Kaehler. My husband, Fred Kaehler, and I raised our
family of four children and retired at 1615 Whedbee Street during the last 48 years.
Prior to purchasing the residence at 1615 Whedbee St, we lived at 405 Alpert Street for
two years. Therefor, we are 50 year residents of the area that includes Deines Court.
My estimate is that we live about 200 yards from 516 Deines Court.
Please include our name and address on the list to notify area residents of any meeting
concerning the 516 Deines Ct.
My husband and I are apposed to any developments in our area that allow more than
three unrelated tenants. Our reason? Our 50 years of experience
overwelmingly proves that, over time, 3 unrelated renters do not seriously affect the
condition of the property, the adjacent property nor the quality of life for the area
around the rental property. On the other hand, any number over three unrelated
tenants profoundly affect the property and the quality of life/housing values for persons
who own/live in property within a radius of several block. The fact is that four or more
unrelated residents turns the rental property into an uncontrollable party house.
The area between Prospect and Stuart/College and Stover contains a very large
number of rentals to unrelated persons. Anyone can spot rental property during a
casual walk or drive around the area. All rental properties show signs of decline within
a short time. Unrelated people do not have a vested interest in the condition of
property nor their responsibility for it.
While attention to the technical requirements of rental properties is vitally important,
the physical disruptive damage to other owner occupied properties and the quality of
life for residents must be also considered. Once a property declines in value and the
quality of a neighborhood declines, it takes decades to recover, if recovery is even
possible.
I am very impressed by the sincere consideration for the concerns of the
owner/residents of our neighborhood.
Thank you for your openness and respect.
Respectfully yours, Alyce Kaehler
