Ridiculous that they even consider these huge buildings in our neighborhood. The infrastructure isnt there for it. Stop the greedy developers NOW.

Mount Hope is already a nightmare for traffic. We dont need massive apartment complexes looming over everything and blocking out the sun. Keep it at 3 stories max.
