The mass and scale of the project is out of control! , A 6 story building with such a large scale dwarfs the surrounding smaller buildings that have for many decades created a neighborhood feel that integrated small businesses apartment buildings and businesses. It also sits directly on Caroline St , on a narrow one way street and thus should not be completely compared to The Pavilion on Lake. The level of impact of such a large scale project will directly impact this balance as well as directly impact parking dramatically and 9/11/24, 10:04 AM Mail - Julia Destino - Outlook https://outlook.office365.com/mail/inbox/id/AAQkADI5NDIzZGRiLTQwNjEtNGM1MS05ZmQxLTUyZTNkMzFiZDJiZQAQAOfIskxLbu1CqLOx%2BWWp…1/2 traffic patterns, This part I'm fully aware is not in your wheelhouse but as a neighborhood the mass of this project will directly impact all of us and we have concerns, I fully recognize the properties are not historic and do not at all oppose its development but I do ask you all to do what you can to ensure the Mass and scale of this project stay in a reasonable range for this area to also help the a more design and neighborhood appropriate approach to this building. In full disclosure while I am the Board President of SSPF I am speaking as a nearby resident and small business owner in our community. Thank- you for your time......
