[mailto:RIDEOVRON @aol.com] Seat: Friday, October 23, 2009 5:56 ,AM To: Kevin Clausen Subject: Variance No. 2008 -04756 Dear Mr. Clausen, The purpose of this e -mail is to object to the variance for 360 So. Peralta Hills Dr. There does not appear to be a valid need to allow a variance. The lot in question is huge and there should be no reason why the proponent should require to reduce the side yard setback on increase the structural height. This neighborhood is the gold standard for the community. While each house is individual in decor and structural design, everyone else in the area has been held to acceptable parameters of construction and conformed to uniform height and setback requirements. This lovely neighborhood does not need a sore thumb and absent some compelling arguement as to why this variance would benefit the community as a whole, the request for the variance should be denied. Thank you for your consideration.
