Dear Mr. Shepard,
I am writing you to express my support of the project proposed at 431 East Laurel Street Replat, #30-10
Having invested in refurbishing and re -use of a blighted building in the neighborhood, I strongly believe in
continuing to improve structures, safety, efficiency, and density in east side homes.
Refurbishing both rental and owner occupied properties in old town for the past 35 years has strongly formed my
opinion that quality investment whether owner or non -owner occupied lifts the appearance and value of this area.
The city and citizens of Fort Collins benefit on multiple levels: Direct immediate sales tax from improvements, long
tem property tax increase for schools and infrastructure, and much needed construction jobs.
Please take into consideration the reputation of experienced local people who are willing to invest their time and
money in Fort Collins like this applicant.
Unfortunately I will be out of town and cannot personally appear at the administrative hearing on January 12. 1
would look forward to discuss this project or any other projects like it in the future with you.
Respectfully,
Richard Taranow
