Dear Board Members:
Please accept this letter as an amendment to the previous application for addition of permitted uses at
1124 W. Mulberry St.
On Monday, October 12, 2009, we held a neighborhood meeting to discuss my proposed request and to
gather input from neighbors. Ten neighbors attended the meeting.
While there was a lot of conversation, most of it centered on neighbors' concerns about the recent
opening of an illegal fraternity in the vicinity, as well as a loft project that had been proposed for the
opposite corner of Shields and Mulberry. It is important to note that there was general agreement that
my location is not suitable as a single-family dwelling, given its close proximity to the intersection and
corresponding issues of traffic, noise and lights.
The main concern presented by the neighbors relates not to the request for office use or bed/breakfast
use, but to the request for personal and business service shops.
After hearing the concerns and reviewing the comments of my neighbors, I have reconsidered my
position on the personal and business service shops. My neighbors are opposed to this use specifically,
and I would like to remove the request for personal and business service shops.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Daryl Alexander
