Learn why this is important External Email - Exercise Caution We object to this development (3 story, 36 room hotel) at 811 W Live Oak St. We bought our home in 1998 (2107 S 5th St) and while the overall character of our neighborhood has changed, the small single family homes bordering this section of Mattie’s have not. Our neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. We are very concerned by the apparent lack of an appropriate set back from our property line as the plans make it look like it could be only 5-10 feet. We are worried about having an inadequate buffer/screening between the proposed hotel and our backyard. Our backyard is our oasis for 26 years and we are upset about a 3 story hotel overlooking our yard and disturbing our privacy. Thank you for considering our concerns when deciding on this matter. I plan to attend the meeting on Tuesday but wanted to send a few comments for you to include in review process. Thank you.

Learn why this is External Email - Exercise Caution Dear Mr. Fahnestock, My family received another notice regarding a proposed hotel the owners of Mattie's restaurant are trying to build on their property that borders our lot. We are concerned and would like to express our objection but we have no plans to look at. The document we received in the mail was not clear as to the details (exact location, height, etc).
