• <br /> Gerald C. Erickson <br /> 5383 Mariners Cove Dr. <br /> Unit 414 <br /> Madison, WI 53704 <br /> (608)288-5505 (W) (608) 244-9148 (H) <br /> February 22, 1997 <br /> Town of Westport Plan Commission <br /> 5387 Mary Lake Road <br /> Waunakee, WI 53597 <br /> RE: Fletcher Condominium Plat Design <br /> To the Plan Commission: <br /> Since I will be out of town and unable to attend the Public Hearing on Wednesday, February 26, I want <br /> to state my opposition in writing. <br /> As a resident of Mariner's Cove Condominiums I will live with the consequences of your decision <br /> regarding the above development. <br /> •Essentially, all 14 units in Building 400(5 383 Mariner's Cove Drive) and most units in Building 300 <br /> (5387 Mariner's Cove Drive)will look out at a 4-1/2 story WALL-the rear surface of this proposed <br /> construction if you approve this development as proposed. <br /> •I ask for your"denial" of this rezoning based on the premise of maintaining some open green space <br /> amongst an already crowded commercial, residential and multi-family living area <br /> *Owners and brokers of land want to operate and"make deals- between buyers and sellers of projects. I <br /> admit the land has been for sale a while, but one doesn't comprehend the impact of a sale until the <br /> realization comes of looking at a 4-1/2 story wall out your living room window. <br /> •Development could be tolerated if it blended better with existing structures. For example, single family <br /> homes along with a small GREEN SPACE to complement what is already in place. This would not <br /> create an ugly sight barrier to any family living in the neig hborhood. <br /> In any event, multi family, multi-floor, apartments or condo units just don't face each other in current <br /> day designs-the"ends"of buildings are often placed adjacent, but you never see the rear of one building <br /> facing the front of another. There is usually some type of buffer zone in between if not a full width street <br /> with minimum setbacks. <br /> Please be aware of our need to exist in harmony with the environment and individual psyche as a resident <br /> of the community. <br /> Cordially, <br /> W„,\.%y� v y <br /> Gerald C Erickson <br />
