I plan to write in support of it as well.
We have to emphasize that this is a change request to an already approved concept that had 5 buildings, with a much larger footprint. This smaller-footprint, taller development is what the city should be supporting AND encouraging.
It's important for all of us to express our support, since it appears the media report on public reaction based on # of yes vs # of no and not on the merits or nature of the support or opposition. I was glad to see at the last meeting a councillor say that private viewplanes should not impact a project proposal.
