6. 22-1099 Public Hearing: Actions on the Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) and the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP), General Plan Amendment from Community Commercial to High Density Residential, Rezone from General Office (OG) to Planned Development (PD), and density bonus agreement to allow a multifamily affordable housing development with 108 rental units at 1601 Civic Center Drive
This area already has a lot of issues including suspicious people, petty crime, noise in the midnight, bad smells, car break in, and a lot more. Building a high density affordable housing will deteriorate the situation and force existing community to live a worse neighborhood.
The high density housing development plan is not a good fit for our neighborhood. Cramming 108 units in such a small lot with limited parking spaces is going to contribute to a lot of noise/traffic issues/parking issues/ lack of safety for children. The neighborhood is already crowded enough and this development plan is going to only exacerbate the current problems.
I oppose this High Density Residential project with 108 units at 1601 Civic Center Drive. A 5-story building with 108 units is too high, dense and not a good fit for our neighborhood.
This needs to be scaled down to 3-Levels and Half the Density to make any sense on such a tiny lot, in an already crowded neighborhood suffering from significant problems like traffic/parking/noise and lack of amenities. Developer does NOT care in the slightest about neighbors + Quality Of Life for existing/new residents. It is just trying to maximize the profits for its investors using lucrative tax credits on the backs of taxpayers. This NonProfit is calling itself Charities, beyond shameful!
Charities Housing plans to build only 82 parking space for 108 units. Lots of cars will have to park in the street, making the already overcrowded neighborhood even more unsustainable. Low-income people need cars to commute to work, chauffeur kids to school and go to hospitals. Rapid rehousing participants need cars to find jobs. You can't force them to spend 3 hours commuting by bus every day. We need to build public transportation as convenient as New York before cutting parking space.
High density development would cause many issues in this neighborhood, especially for street parking availability and traffic safety of Civic Center Dr. Well balanced plan with moderate density considering the adjacent neighborhood's living conditions such parking space and shadow impact is highly desirable.
High density development is not a fit for this neighborhood. The development will exasperate the lack if street parking; increase unmonitored traffic entry point onto Civic Center Drive, and add to the Title 1 school depriving more students of a good foundational education and I’ll prepared to be successful in high school or hopes for attending college.
