As a member of the Eisenhower West Advisory Group I strongly oppose this CDD. This would set the vision of the Eisenhower West Small Area Plan back at least 25 years.

Please do not open an [ugly] can of worms! A storage facility is TOTALLY uncalled for.

I don’t want my neighborhood of Alexandria to become ugly with storage facilities and industrial zones.
On the other hand, the Democrats have made Alexandria ugly with the ethanol station near the train tracks, the Patent Trade Office, the BRAC Center, the painting of bicycle paths on city streets that are not being used no matter how much you force people to ride bicycles, the “Free Bicycles” that are all over Alexandria to promote people to ride bicycles, that are rarely used, as I drive around Alexandria. Alexandria is becoming a piss pot.

There are already several storage facilities in this area. We do not need one more!

The future of the West End does not lie with more public storage. EWSAP is the future and it's the right one for us.

The West End is finally gaining some momentum in evolving to a future vision to build a better and enticing community in the west end through the partnership within the Steering Committee for the Eisenhower West Small Area Plan. To move away from this plan and allow further expansion of the storage facility is a total contradiction to the plan, which represents the desires of the west end community. This is NOT in line or supportive of the vision for the West End and should not be approved by the City Council.

This is and should be a residential community. We do not want more industrial facilities.

Do not allow that storage facility some plan to place on S. Picket. It would further sully our West End Alexandria.

The community has worked hard to make the broader neighborhood more livable than an industrial base. Public storage is just not the right type of development!!!

I strongly urge the Alexandria City Council to disapprove item 11 on the Docket for 12/15/2018. This is an entirely unsuitable use of prime land in an area that can become a magnet for residential and mixed use, bringing in plenty of tax dollars for the city from residents eager for beautiful surroundings with places to live, shop, eat and play.

I was a member of the Steering Committee for the Eisenhower West Small Area Plan ("EWSAP"). 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.

Stick with the plan, it’s a good one. This storage facility would be a terrible precedent.

As a local real estate agent and 14 year resident in Cameron Station, I feel the land has a better use than more storage units. West End Alexandria in my opinion has the greatest upside potential in coming years as the last area of Alexandria that change is actually happening and I strongly hope that continues with forward thinking and not keeping west end behind the times
Enough Storage!!!
