Some of the <br />reccmmendations that we will be making <br />may, be supported by everyone who <br />li es or works in the area. We are doing <br />everything we can to consider all points <br />of view and achieve concensus. <br />At this point in our work, the WWCRP <br />Board and General Membership have already <br />voted to support a redevelopment approach <br />in the Washington- Walnut commercial <br />district that will involve significant <br />changes. It will be the recommendation <br />of the WWCRP that some specific <br />prcperties in this area are acquired, <br />businesses relocated, buildings <br />demolished and sites cleared, in order to <br />allDw for development of new low income <br />hou3ing and a new small neighborhood <br />shopping center. Additional <br />recmmiendations will be made regarding <br />d opment on Chapin Street. <br />We are excited by the potential for <br />sucmssful development in our <br />nei rhood. We look forward to <br />presenting our completed reccmavndations <br />to rhe Redevelopment Commission in the <br />n future. <br />amin Tyler <br />Mr. �Nimtz received the letter into the <br />record and placed it on file. <br />-4- <br />
