I am against this development as is, because it does not follow the rules of the city, and would destroy the area as we know it and love

We own a beautiful property in this area, and we are very very upset about such an enormous development that will destroy such beautiful nature, replace it with concrete, too much traffic and change the wonderful nature of this neighborhood!
I totally object to this project

The words Compatible and Beneficial exist in the general building code for new developments encroaching on,or adjacent to mature existing neighborhoods. There is also a protocol of steps to be taken with neighborhood councils, plum committees and design review boards. In the the case of this development, from it's earliest conceptions, these steps were skirted or bypassed. The proposed 19 monolithic "Row-House" style homes will be in violation of the general "Community Plan and the Specific Plan".The narrow frontages and height limitations will most assuredly produce Three Story houses adjacent to our predominantly one story low density existing neighborhood .
In addition, the proposed removal, or trimming,and grading plans are a smoke screen. the changing of grading, water flow and intrusion of retaining walls within 100 ft. of the drip line of the canopy of a mature Oak will almost guarantee its deterioration and eventual demise. .Far more Trees will be lost than is suggested in the plan.
The proposed height and length of the retaining walls, as well as the extensive grading and fill proposed will totally alter any of the natural character of the land and will make this development completely incompatible with the surrounding homes.
As a long time resident (since 1972) of Hanna Valley and a Designer for 57 years, I can guarantee that if this development was proposed adjacent to any of your homes, that you would be writing this comment. A couple of other factors, the proposed Street access to San Feliciano is a guaranteed producer of serious accidents with injuries. The normal speed of the traffic, south bound from the Cerrillos stop sign and northbound from the Mulholland drive access will not allow stopping in time to prevent a collision when exiting the new street. And lastly, as a 75 year old and Native Californian, I have seen a great deal of growth, some sensitive and enhancing, some compatible with the nature of the land and surrounding communities

There is enough development here already. Let’s keep this place nice. That’s why we live here.

We don't need anymore housing developments. We need to keep our trees and open areas. They are vital to remove carbon monoxide from the environment to provide oxygen and also homes for our wildlife, whether they fly, walk or slither. Their is too much out of control development. We need to preserve these beautiful trees. Look around and see all the developments that have been built, including oversized outrageous malls. Think

Completely unacceptable to attempt to pass this during this time, we are all dealing with enough, and certainly do not need new development that does not even abide by code. We've lived in other areas of the city, and each time homeowners have successfully worked with the city for a "win-win". This one should be no different.

Coastal oak trees are and should continue to be protected.
