The comments were "we the undersigned property owners respectfully request the denial of the proposal of change for residential to commercial for the property located at 512 W. Hagerman St., it is not their intention to deny a bonafide buisness opportunity to anyone, it is our contention that the change, if granted, is incompatible with the nature and character of the existing neighborhood, is in direct conflict with the purposes of residential zoning as set forth in the code of ordinances and there are many other developed and established areas within the city which are more suitable for this type of development. The specific areas of concern include, negative impacts to property values, destruction of the nature and character of the neighborhood, there will be increased vehicle traffic, increased noise and congestion, disruption and/or interruption of residential activities, increased pollution from trash accumulation and negative impacts to quality of air and light pollution. It is also a major concern that if the zoning change is granted neither the City or property owners will retain any control over the eventual use of the property and additionally because the applicant lists her address from out of state, there is a real question as to whether her awareness or appreciation of the potential impact to the exisiting neighborhood would ensue through the proposed change."
