Outlook Comments for the Planning Commission on March 11 From Sandy Wilder < > Date Mon 3/10/2025 9:13 AM To Tomko, Jonathan < > You don't often get email from . Learn why this is important External Email - Exercise Caution Hello, Mr. Tomko. I’m sending this email because I won’t be able to attend Tuesday night’s Planning Commission meeting where a re-zoning request for 2967 Manor Road will be considered. This parcel is within the Austin Heights Neighborhood Association boundaries, where my house also is, thus I have these comments. Our neighborhood has always been pro-housing. Six years ago, we worked closely with Foundation Communities on the M Station project. The Foundation Communities CEO attended Austin Heights Neighborhood Association meetings, shared site plans, explained the urgent need for housing, and answered all our questions. In the end, we unanimously supported M Station, and today, we are proud to live alongside our M Station Apartments neighbors. A plaque in the M Station learning center even recognizes the Austin Heights Neighborhood Association as a supporter. We are not opposed to housing—we are opposed to bad planning. M Station was a carefully planned, thoughtful project done in consultation with the neighborhood. In contrast, this proposed zoning change lacks transparency, thoughtful planning, and meaningful neighborhood engagement. Pro-housing means getting it right, not pushing through changes without community input. Thank you for filing my comments with the commissioners, since I’m unable to attend in person or virtually.
