No more storage facilities in the West End of the city of Alexandria or six-figure salary families like mine will move to Fairfax or Arlington Counties. Schools are better there anyway.

Stop treating the West End as the locus for all industrial projects in the city. The long term plan is supposed to develop the West End as a mixed-use residential and commercial destination. Follow your own plans!!

We have enough self storage on the west end. I want to live in Alexandria not an industrial zone.

Make this a more vibrant, interactive space! A storage facility does NOTHING to energize a community.

We have lived in Cameron Station going on 15 years now. Since that time, many of us have fought unsuccessfully to eliminate the Virginia Paving plant, the ethanol transfer facility and other heavy and light industrial projects, thanks to previous city councils. It is time for the council to realize that this new building request goes against what the West End is trying to develop into: a livable, modern mixed use area without being the dumping ground for all the projects that Old Town, Del Ray, Potomac Yards and the other "gentrified" areas of Alexandria don't want. We are also tired of being ignored by our elected officials and city planners for the benefit of the rest of Alexandria. Keep with the ideals of the EWSAP, Do not cheat us out of a decent living community. Vote against this lame proposal

The Petition states very clearly my views and desire for the Alexandria City Council to disapprove Item 11 on the Docket for the 15 December 2018 City Council Public Hearing.

I live in Cameron Station and twenty five years ago the Watergate at Landmark The West End has been ignored . How many car dealerships and public warehouses do we need over here ? How many jobs will they offer ?

Add more that will make the west end a more attractive place to live. We do not need another storage facility here.

As President of the Cameron Station Civic Association, we do not support this initiative by Public Storage, for the reasons stated.

I too would like to see the Eisenhower West Small Area Plan implemented without this amendment. Adding another storage unit to the area, especially in the proposed location, would significantly hinder the success of the greater development project. The EWSAP is about redeveloping and transforming the West End as more of a livable, residential community and not about the further proliferation of industrial space.

I believe it prudent to stay within the guidelines and vision of the Eisenhower West Small Area Plan and keep the West End more liveable by considering mixed-use development.

Increased storage facilities do not fit the needs of our growing community.

More storage or other new industrial is not what we have been promised as longtime residents. Stick to the stated vision of mixed use with new retail/dining. Also promised has been improved pedestrian access to these new residences, businesses and Metro. Large vehicles going in/out of a huge storage center doesn't seem to fit into that plan.
