THANK YOU
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes April 4, 2023 Page 19 of 74 440 University Appeal, Menlo Park City Council, 4.4.23 Council Meeting Dear Council Members,
Please uphold my appeal of 440 University Avenue Menlo Park and request the Developer, Thomas James Homes, amend their design to allow for my current and future solar access, keeping the design in line with all neighboring homes, move the house to the front set back.
Simple changes will mitigate some of the consequences of this development.
Requested conclusion:
- Move the bulk of the house toward the street to align with the front set back. - Keep the house and rear yard in the character with the rest of the neighborhood. - Protect my current and future solar access. My veggie garden and heritage fig, peach, and persimmon trees will suffer from lack of sunlight.
- Lower rear height of house by 2.5 feet, and taper the second story forward 5-10 feet. - Require landscaping at the rear of the property that lessens impacts of the house looming over my property.
All of these simple design changes are within building guidelines and of little cost to the developer, but would greatly improve the impacts to me and my neighbors.
Thank you.
Figure 1. Please note the large backyards and setbacks from the rear property lines in all neighboring properties.

Please note the large nearly 30 ft. high wall that will cast a long shadow over my property and limit my solar access and sunlight plane and is not in keeping with the rest of the houses in the neighborhood.

5 City Council Regular Meeting Minutes April 4, 2023 Page 43 of 74 Who the MPCC will serve
• Programs and services in the MPCC will reflect and
prioritize the people for whom this facility is being created: Menlo Park residents, specifically Belle Haven neighborhood residents, and in particular, long time Belle Haven residents who relied heavily on the services in the previous center. • The MPCC facility can and should serve these residents even more meaningfully, with even greater priority, and with even more responsiveness, inclusion, and belonging than existed in the previous center. 6 City Council Regular Meeting Minutes April 4, 2023 Page 44 of 74 Guiding principles

In so doing, the City strives to balance the resources and requirements of each area of the city in an equitable manner for all residents, in all neighborhoods of the City. The City of Menlo Park prioritizes social justice in decisions that affect residents’ lives: • The fair, just and equitable management of all institutions serving the public directly or by contract;
• The fair, just and equitable distribution of public services and implementation of public policy;
• The commitment to promote inclusion, fairness, justice, and equity in the formation of public policy;
• Creating a healthy environment and nutritional options in City programs. 7 City Council Regular Meeting Minutes April 4, 2023 Page 45 of 74 8 City Council Regular Meeting Minutes April 4, 2023 Page 46 of 74 Community survey results
