While I will not have the opportunity to attend the hearing, please relay my opinion to <br /> the members of the board. <br /> I love living in this neighborhood and am so proud to be part of the growth and diversity this area represents. While the <br /> Pandora building was always an eye sore,the proposed plans for a mixed use building is disappointing. I do not <br /> understand the rationale of creating a building that is not only physically out of character, but one that is not consistent <br /> with the ideals that we share as homeowners.The proposed changes will not only create unwanted traffic but create a <br /> potential safety issue. My own daughter,who is 11 years old,enjoys walking/biking to Eddy Street Commons to have <br /> lunch or playing in the park when her friends visit. I believe the traffic will be a deterrent in allowing her the freedom <br /> that she has always enjoyed. <br /> When I look outside my window, I do not wish to see a mixed use building that is clearly out of place. if the developers <br /> wish to create office space,there are other areas in South Bend that would be more suitable to their needs. I feel they <br /> are completely infringing upon our rights to enjoy our neighborhood and the APPROPRIATE growth that is <br /> ongoing. HOMES, not businesses, are being built-witness the activity on St. Peter Street-which add to the value of our <br /> own homes. The proposed building will greatly diminish or property value. <br /> Please forward my opposition to the Board. <br /> Thank you in advance. <br /> Alice Isaacson <br /> 909 N.Saint Peter St. <br /> 1 <br />
