Dear ,
Thank you for your email. I’ll include your email in the staff report to the Planning Commission and to the City Council, such that your comments will be considered along with the proposal, before they make a decision.

Please note, if the City approves this project, they are only approving the General Plan and Zoning change. A detailed project application will be submitted at a later stage which will involve additional public outreach and hearings. You may receive an official notice from the City of Sunnyvale regarding your opportunity to participate in future public outreach and hearings.

Thank you,

So what is going to happen to our commercial property?
more housing after housing when you haven't seen the mess from the Butchers corner impact yet ! what is the rush for a disaster in the making we already are fighting people who park form the the apartment across the street
many horrible confrontation have arised from rude apartment people now you want to compound it to a new level of car wars
good luck with that
its zone for commercial for people to walk to the shop to get stuff they need not to drive there cars so much this need to be a nice commercial stop for neighborhood walkers to enjoy the neighborhood and not drive around your increase the traffic to gridlock keep it up the good work and you have many other problems you need to deal with
If you want to be an environmentally conscious city you would advise property owners to take out the Wendy's and gas station to make car-less housing on the 3 rd floor .

Have store 1st floor shop/ cafe, for then for the tenants living there on the 2nd floor office or business for the tenant to do remote working / business then housing 3 rd floor for the car-less people who only use the shared car Attachment 11

to get around or apple/ google bus they can use cars the share Zip car if they need it but use bike a bus system this will start a new trend in saving the planet NO more cars city like they are doing in ARIZona now.

This would be a great new start and maybe start a new trend in Sunnyvale and the nation .

I built the Farm in Sunnyvale that now feeds all the student organic food and I built the community garden on Charles street that made a lasting impression on your city. Let's try to make the city a great example for others to follow
Please don't take shortcuts or Quick solutions for owner to profit. affordable housing for single people getting started in the area in their new professional jobs who that don't have cars.

Please no more restaurants just cafe or low smoky shop so we can breath better something people can enjoy without polluting
the environment
here is the link for carless housing it making big headlines https://culdesac.com
thank you for your understanding
feel free to call me for more ideas

Dear Mary J.

Sunnyvale used to be a pleasant to look at bedroom community with a balanced mixture of family homes, apts, shops and a few orchards/farms. It has now become a storage place for families stacked into apt slots like mail in post office boxes. It has lost whatever semblance of American community charm it had historically. I'm for development, but you have gone to the extreme for human density. I am opposed to this development. owner in Raynor Park

Good morning.

Thank you for emailing your concern about traffic. Please note, the application that is currently in review is to consider a change in land use from commercial to residential. Medium or high-density mixed-use development will be proposed and considered, only if the Planning Commission and to the City Council approve this application. I’ll include your email in the staff report to the hearing bodies, such that your concern about traffic will be considered, before they make a decision.

Thank you,

How do you envision traffic would be affected when there is already high density building project across the road.

Not to mention that the Butcher corner project does not have sufficient parking. As a person who lived in three big city it is clear to me that the residents of these buildings will park in our neighborhoods.

What will you do to avert that?
Thank you,
