Dear Mel,
I'm writing this note to express the school's opinion regarding the proposed project
at 125 E. Baker. It's our opinion that the project will have a positive impact on the
immediate area, including Mariners Christian School. We welcome a continuing
move toward mix usage in this area and believe that the presence of full time
residents in our area will enhance this neighborhood.
I'm happy to speak with you and provide more information if need be. Thank you
for your time.
Sincerely,
Todd Perkins
