CLK-Pamela Aguilar <br />prom: Matthew Self <br />Sent: Monday, February 11, 2019 9:23 AM <br />To: GRP -City Council <br />Subject: Opposed to General Plan Amendment for Harbor View <br />I'll keep this short! <br />I have been a big supporter of development in Downtown Redwood City for the following reasons: <br />1. The Downtown plan includes a balance of office, housing, and retail <br />2. The development is close to transit, so it minimizes traffic <br />3. There was a public -led process to develop the DTPP plan <br />However, Harbor View has NONE of these things in its favor! <br />1. Harbor View is 100% office space <br />2. It is not near transit -- it will be 100% car -oriented <br />3. The project is not part of any publicly -led plan --it's developer -led <br />I would opposed this project even if it conformed to current land use and zoning. But it is completely <br />inappropriate to change the land use or zoning in order to allow this project where it wouldn't otherwise be <br />allowed. <br />I ask that you please review the "significant and unavoidable impacts to transportation" in detail. The <br />impacts of this land use and zoning change substantially outweigh any benefits to the community. <br />Respectfully, <br />--Matthew Self <br />
