Hello
Neighbors,
We have a VERY important meeting
this Tuesday, Feb 7 at 7:30 at City
Hall (201 Delafield
Street) in the Council
Chambers.
There will be a public hearing on
the rezoning MSP Company is requesting on Meadow Lane. We all know this project
would be passed by the plan commission. I appreciate Alderman Joan Francoeur
and Plan Commissioner Jim Hoppe for voting against this project.
Tuesday is the
important vote. If the Common Council votes
against the rezoning request then MSP will have to go back and decide if they
are still interested in re-submitting a plan.
The meeting on Tuesday will start
with a public hearing on the rezoning. We need every last neighbor in the room to
share your views during the Public Hearing. That is exactly what Public Hearings
are for, to share your opinion of whether or not this property should be
rezoned.
As I have stated on the record, MSP
has brought an improved plan to us but it is still too dense. We have a glut
of apartments in our neighborhood and city. MSP is recommending approximately 9
units per acre. They can bring it down to 6 or
6.5.
With that said, we need to focus the
comments on whether or not the property should be rezoned to RM 2 from Temporary
T1 which is its current zoning. If this zoning gets approved by the Common
Council then MSP will build the project we saw at the Plan
Commission.
We can make a
difference by sharing our point of view during the Public Hearing, please come
and share your thoughts.
I will have a quick pre-meeting at
7:20 outside the council chambers again.
If you have any questions, please
call me at 414 807-7858.
Please forward this to your
neighbors because I had to recreate my email distribution list and I may have
missed some people who wanted to be included on these
messages.
Best
regards,
Paul
