Hello,
My name is Kevin and I have lived in the neighborhood for over 12 years. I urge you to support the General Plan change to allow for housing and live workplace to be built on this site.
That lot has been an eye sore even before the current ownership and there are hardly any cars or people going in and out of there. At best you would see five cars there at any given time. It is not a good location for a standalone business or office. With fewer police services in west San Jose, we need to make sure that lots like this don’t become a nuisance and add blight to the neighborhood. We would also like to see new housing built in our neighborhood instead of an old office. Please support the General Plan Change because it is a positive change in our neighborhood. I have also signed the petition in support.
Thanks,
Kevin

Good evening,
My name is Danielle Knutson and I was hoping to speak at the city council meeting tonight in support of the GP21-004 Land-Use Amendment. I appreciate this e-mail being received instead of my public statement due to the meeting's time constraints.
I live in the neighborhood and fully support changing the land use from commercial to mixed use. This change will allow for live work development to take place. While I respect the desire to attract business by having the space indicated for commercial use, over the years, the use of the space in question has decreased. Currently, it is not currently being used to its potential. The area is surrounded by single-family homes and does not have a through street. Approving this amendment would allow us to have possible commercial development as well as desperately needed housing. This is a more responsible use of space for our community. I respectfully ask the Mayor and City Council to approve the General Plan change to allow live work development.
I appreciate your time.
Thank you,
--

My name is Yue Wu and I support the change to the General Plan to allow for live workplace in the neighborhood. I have lived in the neighborhood for _____11__ years. I met with the applicant when they came to my home and signed the petition in support. Their proposal is a win-win for our neighborhood and the city. The city gets much needed housing, and we get a brand-new development that will not only enhance the quality of life but also a better reuse of an underutilized land. I along with my neighbors support the change to Mixed Use Neighborhood. Thank you for your consideration.
