Display images below Dear Ms. Luckasen, My name is Donald Brown. I reside at 976 Mokelumne st Woodbridge Ca. I'm am writing this letter in response to the pre-application for the development of the corner of Orange St and Mokelumne st. APN /Address 015-450-27/ 1026. I am strongly opposed to having said lot converted from C/C Community Commercial to R/M. Medium Density Residential. I'd like to also address the lack of notification to the community is very troubling. The only reason I was even notified was due to the fact that I sit on the Woodbridge Municipal Advisory Council -otherwise, I would have had no notification of the proposed project so close to my home. Having a multi-unit up to nine units in this location would be completely out of character of the neighborhood. Single-family homes and C/C Community Commercial buildings( the historic district downtown ) is what surrounds this site. To build such a unit would also negatively impact the local area with extra street parking. We have had many parked car accedences along this exact stretch of road. In the past 5 years, no less than three cars have been hit directly across the street from the proposed site on Mokelumne st. There is not ample square footage to allow adequate parking on sight unless units are built above parking. I have no doubt with even parking below units there will be increase parking on street impacting both businesses and local current residences. Again completely out of character of the area. These type of units are very unsightly. These type of units typically attract low-income residence with all the problems associated with these type of units. The proposed site is adjacent to our beautiful downtown historic district that we are so proud of and we as a community have worked so hard to revitalize. To build an R/M unit in this location would be a huge set back to the community and local business in my opinion. There is a location in Woodbridge that is more appropriate for such a project. Sacramento street next to the trailer park west side of the street. Across the street to the left of the Arco gas station. This location has a sizable empty lot that will allow for R/M with parking on sight as well. The negative impact to the community would be minimized while still allowing for low-income housing with easy access in and out of town minimizing traffic to side streets and minimize parking congestion. Hoping the planning commission will take my concerns seriously, I love living in Woodbridge. We have worked so hard to make this a great place to live. Thank you for your consideration.
