Petition To the Bridgeport Planning and Zoning Commission

The corner of Fairfield Ave and Courtland Ave is already congested and visibility is limited. The new building is entirely too big and will just add to the mess of traffic in this dangerous traffic stop.

Are you crazy? What a way to ruin a town finally on its way back. Smaller and more architecturally designed is what will attract the kind of people Black Rock wants

The aesthetics of Black Rock is what makes it a unique & historic community. The many developments on Brewster St (where the movie theaters were) and on Commerce St. are intrusive enough! Don’t change the scale of Fairfield Ave. this close to our historic, residential neighborhood.

Too big for our neighborhood.

Way too much building in such a small space - 52 units w/ 52 parking spaces on a busy corner. Doesn’t fit the neighborhood.

Too large for this special community. Do not ruin this gem of the city.

The size of this building is unacceptable

You need to provide more parking

Ridiculously oversized for the neighborhood and the lot.

Our neighborhood is a unique community. Don't make it commercialized!

There should be guidlelines to make it aestheitically appealing and part of doing so is a requirement that the entire lot can not be consumed by structures, and hardscape. A portion should be green with lamdscape. Otherwise, as with other apartment and condo buildings in the area, they have the appearance of low income housing wherher they are or are not. The appaearance is he perception, and detracts from trying to upscale not only Black Rock, but any area.

Please don’t ruin our historic neighborhood with another monstrosity!

I had to deal with the same issue in Westport, it's always out of the area developers, who have no interest in preserving or developing the neighborhood.

I'm new to Black Rock but I would like to keep the neighborhood scale. Absolute NO to boring architecture.

Keep Black Rock quaint please.

No way can this be more then 3 housing levels, in this spot. Even if I were an investor in this development, as a Black Rock resident I would not feel any different. This location is unlike the location at the old movie theaters on Brewster that are currently under construction.

No thanks. Lets keep the small neighborhood feel rather than fill the streets lined with cookie cutter apartment complexes that over strain the existing infrastructure.

I am very happy this property is being developed. Thank you. We expect the developer to take into consideration the concerns of the community, especially with regard to maintaining the building under 4 stories and providing it with ample parking.

The “classic” definition of spot zoning is “the process of singling out a small parcel of land for a use classification totally different from that of the surrounding area for the benefit of the owner of such property and to the detriment of other owners. “

Very concerned about this development causing street parking on Clarkston St., Courtland Ave., Monthomery St. & Newtown St. Depending on the retail stores snd types of tenants causing noise in the evenings and weekends
