Protect the Vision for the West End

My family lives in the West End and wants it to be primarily residential with some mixed-use and retail. Thanks.

Please disapprove the request by Public Storage. No more industrial uses - enough is enough. This is a residential area and the use is inconsistent.

I strongly reject plans for yet another Public Storage facility. It forces the neighborhood to look isolated day and nighttime. Also, leaves open room for predators to invade...too industrial looking as it is. We need a walkable "neighborhood" for our youth and our elders.

I am completely opposed to this petition. There is nothing more obnoxious than a pack of third parties attempting to force a businessman from using his property as he sees fit. The signatories here haven't proven that the proposed use harms them in any material way because they can't. They simply don't want what the property owner proposes for his land. They seek to supplant his judgement for their own. How obnoxious, arrogant and offensive.

Exactly who would this benefit? There is hardly a high demand for storage lockers in West End Alexandria. That market it clearly saturated...

I agree with Arthur Impastato's comment."This proposal is completely at odds with the goals and vision of the EWSAP and I oppose it. • Allowing an improper use within the EWSAP would also open the door to other developers requesting DSUPs to overturn an SAP developed over a long period of time and with extensive public involvement." More storage units are not needed in our community if you want to expand the tax base. You need to think about what is needed to expand and grow the tax base...what will drive people to community to spend money and live. Storage facilities will not do this. You need business that will attract more people and business to the neighborhood to help redevelop it.

Please, No more industrial facilities of any kind. What we need is a vote for actions that support a vibrant community, not storage space.

Do not approve yet another storage facility for the West End. Those of us who live in the West End want City leaders to follow the EWSAP.

Please do NOT approve the additional storage facility for South Pickett Street. Keep the Eisenhower West Small Area Plan as it was originally envisioned.

Please uphold the goals and visions of the Eisenhower West Small Area Plan and disapprove the request by Public Storage to build a storage facility on South Pickett Street. Thank you

Many individuals have been working diligently to make the West End of Alexandria a fabulous place to live. The Planning Commission's intent to thwart these efforts by adding another storage facility is inexcusable. It's time for this committee to help ensure we reach the ultimate goal of having a vibrant community.

No more Public Storage in the West end!

No modifications to EWSAP, especially industrial usage!

I totally support the mixed use plan for the west end, especially along Picket/Van Dorn

Please do not change the plan. The changes you propose are not good for the west end of Alexandria.

No more storage !

No more industrial facilities in the West End. The city has a plan (EWASP) that should be followed. We are just as important residents as those living in Old Town & Del Ray...and should be treated equally!!

Please, please disapprove!!!

We at Cameron Station are surrounded by storage facilities. How about more restaurants, stores and housing?

I oppose another storage unit in the west end. We need to maintain the commitment to a mixed use area in our end of the City. We have more people in the west end than any other part if the City. We don’t need more industrial areas.
