Smith, Deputy Director <br />Area Plan Commission, <br />I am in favor of the proposed rezoning at 401 E. Colfax Avenue. <br />I am writing to show my support for Matthews, LLC. <br />I believe Matthews proposed project at 401. E. Colfax Avenue will greatly impact the future of the down <br />town South Bend area. <br />I am currently in the process of relocating North, as I currently work in Granger, In. <br />I originally considered moving directly to Granger. The proximity to my current job would make <br />commuting seconds away, from where I would live. <br />I met with Matthews earlier this summer. I began to fall in love with the character and culture surrounding <br />South bend; and particularly to the love and dedication people living in the town have expressed for the <br />area. <br />As a mother of four children, growth and a sense of community are important. There is a lot of progress in <br />South Bend, and the potential for growth seems to be exponential at this point. <br />In particular, the proposed project at 401 E. Colfax Avenue has caught my attention. Again, as a mother <br />of four, convenience is also of upmost importance in our daily lives. A space of such size appeals to me. <br />The convenience of a pharmacy, grocery store, and potential for retail and office space are all very <br />alluring to a modern family. <br />The ability for growth within this building make me feel confident in South Bend. The proposed height and <br />size do not deter me, but rather excite me for the potential in this town. I hope to continue as an <br />entrepreneur and possibly make use of this future space. <br />Thank you, <br />Karl Maddox <br />Sent from my iPhone <br />
