Lisa,
We would like to submit this additional letter to the plan commission concerning the Monon Lake PUD Rezone
application. As the public hearing is over, it seems this is our only way to communicate with the Plan
Commission members. The developer has the opportunity to respond to our every point, but we aren't really
given much opportunity to provide our own feedback.
I would like to say that we are rather disappointed in the staff comments to this point. They have all been quite
favorable to rezoning the property for high-density based solely on flimsy claims that this development
somehow preserves more trees than possible under R-1. When looking at the small amount of actual tree
preservation, we don't really understand what has led the staff to give their full support. Luckily, it seems the
actual plan commission members see through this and are challenging many points of the developer's proposal.
Thanks,
-Jeremy
