Subject: Black Olive Project Review
Mr. Brian Krueger
Mr. Marty Matsen
Hello Brian and Marty,
I am contacting you regarding the most recent application for the Black-Olive proposed project
17265. As co-owner of the property immediately to the south at 210 South Black, I have several
concerns. The oversized scale and height of the proposed building for this site is not compatible
with the character of the surrounding neighborhood. It is overbuilt for the site, and we, as well
as other neighbors and citizens, will weigh in on that issue in the near future.
Having studied the proposed site plan drawings, my immediate concerns relate to notations on
the site plan drawings.
First, there is a notation showing an electric utility pole placed on our property. The current
utility pole is located on the Black Olive property. It should remain there since there is much
more space available with the planned utility easements associated with the Black Olive project.
My property and back yard should not suffer having a utility pole in addition to the intrusion
from a massive building next door.
Second, the site drawings note that shrubs along the common property line are to be removed.
We had the property line surveyed showing these lilac shrubs are clearly and mostly on our
property. There is an old fence running along the property line within them, which is most likely
part of the original yard of the 210 South Black house built in 1930. These lilac shrubs are part of
our property and must not be removed.
Please have the project applicant correct these errors on the proposed site plan drawings.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Randy Peters
