RDV zoning is still an illegal zoning ordinance that is arbitrary and capricious

What I'm saying is the city would not have spent the resources to update Perry Avenue without the expectation of increased traffic.If a road diet is implemented on Pendleton St, Perry and adjacent residential streets will see more traffic during rush hour.Why push overflow traffic unto residential streets when you already have a four lane street ready to accommodate future growth and traffic?

Obviously you've never had to negotiate a business rental agreement.

You don't believe that the city scraped Perry Av. to the roadbed and repaved it for the exclusive use of the people living on Perry do you?

If Pendleton St has a road diet and traffic backs up I guarantee that people will use every parallel road to access 123 when coming from Augusta St and Vardy.Including coming down a freshly paved Perry Ave.

How long is the traffic analysis for a project like this going to take? The traffic on Leach St. seems to be an issue for a much smaller proposal.This project and any future development at the former unemployment office would bring a sizeable increase in automotive traffic to Pendleton St. DO YOU WANT OVERFLOW TRAFFIC COMING DOWN PERRY AVENUE TO 123 DURING RUSH HOUR? It will if Pendleton St is backed up.

Sounds like they are planning something big,how would that impact traffic on Pendleton St ?How would it impact Pendleton St after the proposed road diet?

I forgot that the Stone family trust had their RM rated properties added to RDV and that the Enigma corporation had RDV changed to C3. On the other side of Pendleton St.I would think that proposal was within the RM-2 zoning regulations.Seems that the city is setting itself up for another lawsuit.It appears that's how they like doing business.

Sorry,my wrong.Still, seems arbitrary.

This is an example of how RDV is arbitrary and capricious.This area needs a traditional set of zoning classifications that specify rights and restrictions clearly.

That's good,nice to see some of these empty spaces being occupied.

We tried to buy it in 1991,the owner was not interested in selling it at that time.Our father bought one lot in 1967 with a boarding house on it that later caught fire and was torn down.After the city took our former property in the plaza Bergamo he wanted to stay downtown to serve our customers,so we bought another lot on the opposite side. During the construction he had a stroke.Thats how we came to be on Pendleton St.

We've come to a new lease agreement with Greg and Jordan at OJ'S until the end of 2025 after extending our prior terms for a year due to the hardships that restaurants have had to endure with Covid.It would be a pleasure for me to attend an UP meet up and discuss our differences on the vision for Pendleton St without the thumb of the city involved in the say.

Does that account for physical improvement/expenditure to the structure or is that pure profit on an unimproved flip?

Downtown depends on business not only from local residents.People coming from out of town will be likely be driving not riding a bicycle or walking.Access into the city would be restricted for visitors and emergency services/vehicles alike as well.
