SAMPLE RESPONSES:

​

The proposed Community Plan should not go forward as planned.  Wait until the pandemic ends and life resumes.

​

Why must growth be the default? Why not, instead, quality-of-life. Del Rey could benefit from improvements and updating. 

​

Restate and endorse the 1997 plan currently in effect. Slow the Community Planning until more study can be done on the future after COVID-19. 

​

The proposed Plan will negatively impact a quiet single-family home neighborhood that has already absorbed a great deal of high-density housing.

​

Increased density should be restricted to the existing large corridor streets.

​

I like what the Plan implies and I'm in favor of rezoning the area for multi-story housing. 

​

Del Rey fortunately avoided the rolling black-outs in the last heat wave, but we are on the edge. The utilities infrastructure is in need of upgrading to support modern electrical and broadband needs. 

​

We object to wording that implies the Wetlands and open spaces are protected, when the  Plan implies that they could be developed to some degree.  

​

The proposed Plan would undoubtedly lead to increased traffic congestion and parking issues.  Delay until a traffic reduction system, such as a center-lane light rail in place along Lincoln.

​

Building without addressing infrastructure makes no sense. 

​

Del Rey has overwhelmingly negative response submitted to City Planning in regards to Paseo Marina. Current zoning must be respected and the 1-2 story commercial development maintained. 

 

Too many existing problems still need to be addressed before adding to the area.

​

There is a poor history of enforcing codes and covenants. Developments, once built, leave us with the problems.

​

The future may look quite different from the past. The Draft Proposals should be redone after life outside resumes.

​

Mar Vista Gardens is not historically significant. Preservation of the current buildings is not worthy of preservation status. Actually, significant upgrading should be considered.
