Dear Commissioner LoCastro:
I am writing you today to express my opposition to the Stock Development One Naples as it is currently proposed. I was encouraged by the action of the Planning Commission and their inability
to recommend approval not only of the current Stock plan, but of a watered-down version that reduced the outrageous tower heights by almost 25%, and extremely diminished setbacks. They
did their job, protecting the community.
Now it’s your turn. Planning Commissioner Frye said it best when he asked the other Commissioners how they could ignore the outpouring of sentiment from the community. These are your
constituents, your voters. Isn’t it your responsibility to listen to those who will live with this atrocity for decades to come and to vehemently deny the developer the right to build
it?
If hundreds of emails exhorting you to deny the project are not enough, if more than eighty people who signed up to speak against the project at the Planning Commission are not enough,
if the 1,100 members of Save Vanderbilt Beach, forty percent of whom have contributed more than $100,000 to engage experts and fight the development are not enough, what exactly will
be enough to persuade you to do the right thing?
Please, when it comes before you, vote to deny the project as it is currently proposed. If you do approve something for the site, and remember we are not opposed to reasonable development,
please approve the project with the conditions that your own Planning Staff proposed. They are reasonable and result in a project that is compatible with and complementary to the neighborhood.
In hopes of a more reasonable project, I am respectfully,
