Dear Mr. Jay:
Please forward my comments and support for the proposed project at 7621 Healdsburg Avenue to both the City Council. I am unable to attend tonight's meeting and apologize for this late request.

Dear Mayor and Councilmembers:
I am writing in support of the application for family housing at 7621 Healdsburg Avenue.
The 12 townhomes and 12 apartments are sorely needed in Sebastopol and will help ease our housing shortage.
These homes are modest in size, well designed and make good use of the site. The apartments and the townhomes will be very attractive to singles, couples and families who want to live in Sebastopol but have been priced out. The size and location seem tailor made for a younger demographic which is declining (or missing) in our current population.
The homes will be within walkable distance to Analy High School, Brookhaven Middle School and Parkside Elementary as well as local grocery stores, restaurants and retail shops. Willard Libby Park is close by as are the amenities of downtown including the library, city hall and more retail operations.
I live nearby (Valentine and Springdale) and will welcome this new housing. I urge you to look favorably upon this application.
Sincerely,
Ken Foley
