# NameCommentsWhat is your neighborhood?Would you support a moratorium on teardowns until interim standards are in place?
51 Cyndi MorganThere must be a more moderate way to upgrade a neighborhood than the sheer greed that is going on right now.01

57 heather stewartPLEASE SUPPORT a professional study on neighborhood infill.university Park01
58 Jerry BlowThere is a feeling of security having the protection of the infill standards in Oakwood which I value highly.Oakwood01
59 Ann Wyche JonesBrentwood01
60 Carol WinnerWhere are seniors going to live out their lives in homes if all the ranches are torn down to build bigger and taller homes. ? Raleigh needs smaller starter homes available to young couples, seniors and out support people ex. teachers, fire, police, nurses etc.Brentwood01

63 AnonymousThe City Council needs to be proactive in handling the infill issue - a study goup would be a great approach. The lack of direction is causing more and more divisive actions among neighbors. Please move this forward ASAP - we voted a new council in to do just that!!!!!Anderson Heights/Fallon Park01

69 Rachel McLaughlinIf builders, homeowners, etc. feel the need to build huge houses in established, older neighborhoods, the very least they should be told to do is leave the foundation and use that as the base to build upon.Runnymede Road01
70 Mary Kelly03
71 John J. LittleThe petition statement reflects my view on this issue. Community in-fill standards and protection of neighborhoods must be considered in all property revision considerations.01
72 Sal CorboRaleigh is in a position to become a world-class city of the 21st century. Current world thinking is trending toward sustainable and globally responsible growth. It is not only the character of neighborhoods that is at risk by current practices in Raleigh, but whether our development activities affect the environment and resources that service us all.Forest Park01

76 Philip W PoeInfill policy is the umbrella issue. It considers everything, A piecemeal approach could produce other unanticipated consequences.Glenwood-Brooklyn03

82 Jason HibbetsI'd like our elected officials to define property vs. community rights and get a better understanding of the situation. Infill can be good if we define what good infill is for our city when we consider all the factors, water, impact fess, economic, gentrification, etc.Pleasant Ridge & Ramsgate03
83 Lori WinkelsteinAt the very least, I feel we need a task force set up to study the issues further. There are pros and cons to both sides of this and truly smart development can only be done with full information.03
84 Deborah DanzeiserMy concern is that mature trees and landscaping will be removed and bigger homes w/ larger footprints will be built creating more rainwater run-off and less water absorption to replenish groundwater.south of farmers market01
85 AnonymousGrowing up on the West Coast, which is considered "young" compared to the East Coast, I firmly believe in the preservation of neighborhoods, especially the historical neighborhoods that are in and around the business areas of every city and town in North Carolina.01

87 Anonymous01
88 Denise Bernier01
89 Christy W. NewellI believe that the history and character of Raleigh's older neighborhoods needs protection from infill which does not take that history and character into consideration.Brentwood03
90 Becky Desjardinsbrentwood01
91 M E Tracy TraerUpgrades that destroy the fabric of neighborhoods do not benefit the community, but rather create monetary wealth for those who who seemingly do not care about their neighbors and thus impovrish the quality of likfe in the neighgorhood. We need diversity in our city. Preservation of modest neighborhoods is essential.Breeze Road01
92 Dave ParnellThe lack of enforcement by the city is a problem, as well as the obvious loss of the character of the neighborhoods.Anderson Heights (Byrd St)01
93 Kristen MonahanPlease can't we just talk about the issue? Isn't that the civilized thing to do?Fallon Park01
94 BARBARA AND HAYNE PALMOUR IIIWe have lived in this general area for 50 years, and in this particular neighborhood for 42 years. It is now — within sight of our house — being impacted by teardown and rebuilding of houses not in keeping with the neighborhood. We do not object to removal of obsolete structures and replacement with appropriately scaled new homes.University Park01

Now — within view of our house — teardowns and large rebuilds are underway that are not in keeping with the nieghborhood. We do not object to removal of obsolete structures and replacement with appropriately scaled new homes.University Park01

99 Jeanette TaltonI grew up in and around Raleigh. I am stunned and worried to see these ugly cumbersome house behemoths along with their unbelievably isolated owners(or speculators) creeping into the charming and pleasingly proportioned neighborhoods of Raleigh.Northwest Raleigh01
