Hi,
Regarding Park Hill 68 unit affordable housing at 545 E. Naples St. Chula Vista 91911, My wife and I are opposed to the project being proposed. Our opinion is based on there are only R 1 housing all around this area. We believe this type of high density housing be built in an appropriate area that is zoned for multiple units. This type of housing can be an issue of affecting property values in the surrounding area. We live at 617 E. Naples St.
Thank you.
