7.A. - Page 138 of 141 <br />From: Terrence Murphey <br />To: CD -Diana ODell; GRP -Planning Commissioners <br />Subject: Support for the Broadway Plaza project at 1401 Broadway and 2201 Bay Road. <br />Date: Thursday, April 18, 2019 7:18:15 PM <br />Redwood City Planning Commission and Planner O'Dell, <br />I'm writing to offer my support for the Broadway Plaza development at 1401 Broadway and 2201 Bay Road. <br />I am a resident of Redwood City, work near by the project sites, and am familiar with the neighborhood. <br />Our city and region urgently needs additional market rate & affordable housing. This location is well suited for the <br />heights and densities proposed. This is the level of density needed to support the public transit services our city <br />general plan envisions for Broadway. <br />This project would be improved by moving the leasing and amenity spaces away from Broadway, and increasing <br />retail spaces. Retail benefits the public and improves the character of the Broadway sidewalk. Additional retail <br />would also help a neighborhood that lost a supermarket several years ago. However, this critique should not <br />override my approval. <br />I strongly recommend the Planning Commission support this proposal. <br />Please call with any questions or comments. <br />Best, <br />Terry <br />Terrence Murphey, AIA <br />502 <br />
