To our Carmel Planning Commission:
I writing this in support of Dora Hotels current plan to add a hotel north of Ritz Charles. Vince and I have
been in conversations over last five years regarding Dora's intent to construct a new hotel. Obviously last
two years with Covid delayed project, but thankfully Vince tells me the project is back on and soon to
break ground. We are truly excited to have another partner north of us who can accommodate both
social and corporate clients for overnight accommodations. This is huge for Ritz Charles and actually
played significantly into our decision to move forward with several million -dollar renovation two years
ago.
We are confident the number of spaces will be sufficient for Cornerstone's office park just north of us,
Ritz Charles activities, new Dora Hotel staff and proposed guest room client parking. Vince and I studied
the parking, egress, deliveries, Ritz cargo / kitchen truck locations etc... and feel comfortable with
projected new traffic flow. Keep in mind the office park north of Cornerstone is empty M-F after 5pm.
The crux of the both Hyatt place and Dora hotel activity will be evenings and weekends.
Feel free to call or email myself or Chuck Lazzara if any further questions.
