Box 1150 Port Angeles, WA. 98362 RE: Impact of Answer for Youth program I am a psychologist with an office at 113 South Eunice, adjacent to the site of the youth, center. Ever since the center opened, youth commonly walk across the parking lot of my building to access the center. In the past month, I have been unable to park in our lot on 3 occasions, because it was full of vehicles, although none of the other therapists in my building were on site. I presume these vehicles belonged to staff or clientele of Answer for Youth. On two occasions 1 did see individuals leave Answer for Youth and drive away in vehicles parked . in our lot (I can only see the lot when I am going in or out of my office, so this doesn't . necessarily represent the only times this happened). Youth frequently cluster outside, smoking. This pollutes the air and has an unsavory appearance. This has been less frequent since the winter rains began; I do not know whether youth are smoking inside now. Thank you for considering my input.

However, it is my opinion that they are significantly exceeding whatever permit they have. There has been more than an excessive amount of vehicle traffic.

Angeles RE: The Answer for Youth (TAFY) Here are a few things for you to consider: MICHELE BRYANT, LICSW 113 5. EUNICE PORT ANGELES, WA 98362 (360) 417 -8018 Dear Ms. Roberds, I apologize for the letter that you received from me a few days ago. It was not finished and was not supposed to be sent out. I saved it to my 'drafts' folder, or thought I had. I was quite surprised and a little dismayed to discover that I had inadvertently sent it out in its unfinished state. The intention of the letter to you was to point out that while Ms. Hilgren is probably full of good ideas and enthusiasm, she seemingly does not understand what is required in order to be a good neighbor in a small and private neighborhood. While I am not certain of who exactly is responsible for this, it appears that our business and grounds have been blamed within the TAFY organization for being unfriendly neighbors. I don't know how else to explain the hostility, and angry confrontations that have occurred between our staff and their clientele. I am sending you, by separate email, a photograph of a sign that is posted at the entrance to their building. The sign appears to blame us for wanting to maintain our boundaries. Our business has improved the aesthetic of the neighborhood and probably caused property values to rise due to the attractiveness of our office and grounds. The same cannot be said for the 'Answer for Youth'. Their parking lot is not adequately large or properly prepared to be used as a daily parking lot. Consequently, it is a mud bog, and they have taken to blocking their parking lot off with orange construction site fencing in order to deny their staff and clientele access to it. Aside from the discordant ugliness of the orange plastic fence, their use of it has caused the streets around the 'center' to be filled with automobiles. Their clientele and volunteer staff appear to assume that they have a right to use Greenwood's parking lot. When asked to move their cars they have become hostile and belligerent. During the most recent incident, they frightened Cheryl Mantle, pounding on her fi le:11C:1Documents and Settings\sroberds\Local Settings \Temp \XPgrpwise14B6AF501 DO... 2/12/2010 MICHELE BRYANT, LICSW • Page 2 of 2 automobile, and making rude gestures as she was attempting to drive away from them. Since the youth center has begun activities, the amount of debris and litter on our property has increased. We find our parking lot littered with wrappers, cans, and cigarette butts. We have had at least one client panhandled by one of the young people from the center, (not by someone attending an AA meeting). Panhandling is not, in itself, so disturbing. However, what is disturbing is that we have gone to great lengths to make our building and grounds a place of safety and sanctuary, something that our clientele needs and relies upon. A safe, regulated, therapeutic environment is the cornerstone of successful therapy. A person leaving a therapy session may be feeling distressed and fragile. They should not be accosted by anyone in what should be secure territory. The fence that TAFY proposed putting up was a small, prefabricated, lattice -work fence. It would have been both unsightly and inadequate. We believed that a propped -up lattice work fence would have detracted from the professional effect we are trying to create for our business. We are very much in favor of putting up a fence, but we want something substantial and permanent, not a makeshift boundary marker. We are now, however, planning to put our own fence up. It appears to be our only choice at this time. We have already had to go to the expense and effort of having our courtyard completely fenced in. We have installed a locked gate and had lights installed in the courtyard for security purposes. We have also been forced to contract with Evergreen Towing so that we can simply call to have their cars removed. We wish to avoid any further confrontations with angry and hostile people. As far as speaking to TAFY's adherence to the operating hours under which their conditional use permit was issued, I can only say that there is constant activity there. Sometimes there are a lot of people there, sometimes just a few. However, they do not appear to be operating within the hours of operation they agreed to when requesting their conditional use permit. All of the above problems are really only symptoms of the real issue. The real issue is that this is a quiet residential neighborhood. A youth center is out of place here, particularly since there is a large, successful, well - organized and apparently well -run youth organization already in place just two blocks away. The Dream Center is in a completely commercial area, an area that is not negatively impacted by their presence and activities. I am not disputing the need for an organization such as TAFY, even though they do replicate most of the same services as the Dream Center. TAFY's presence in our neighborhood is, and has been from the beginning, disruptive. The people in charge at TAFY appear to resent us and to be targeting us for hostility by their clientele. It would have been so simple to post a sign asking their clients to please avoid using the parking lot west of their building. Putting 'DANGER' in large type and bold font on the sign is an immature attempt to make people angry and belligerent when they encounter us. The last thing I want to re- emphasize is, a residential neighborhood is not a realistic location for a sanctuary for young people with issues of this magnitude.

I have attached an excerpt of these requirements from the USS. Note that if the applicant is required to have 6 or less off - street parking spaces, they may forego construction of the improvements for a period of up to 12 months. Public Works Engineering will need to approve the parking plans before signing off on the C of 0, even if construction is put off for 12 months. - Steve Page 1 Excerpted from Chapter 3 of the Urban Services Standards and Guidelines: 3G.110 PARKING LOTS - OFF STREET Parking lot space requirements shall be governed by the requirements of Chapter 14.40 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code (PAMC). This includes parking lots designed and constructed as a part of the requirements for the occupancy of a building or business. A. Improvement requirements are: 1. Shall be contoured and drained so as to collect the drainage on the site, and discharge the drainage by an approved method to an approved drainage collection system. 2. Shall be graded and paved with a hard - surface pavement of portland cement concrete or asphaltic concrete with a structurally adequate base, or other hard - surface pavement acceptable to the City Engineer. The Director of Public Works and Utilities may allow for an exception to hard - surface pavement for developments in the Industrial Heavy Zone, provided that adverse impacts to stormwater drainage, surrounding properties, and public infrastructure are mitigated to the extent the Director deems reasonably necessary and appropriate. 3. Wheel stops shall be installed where necessary to prevent encroachment upon public right -of -way. 4. The City may grant permission for temporary occupancy of a building or structure with out the parking spaces improved, provided that an improvement bond in amount of the estimated value of the improvements is provided to the approval of the City Engineer. The bonds may be accepted if, weather conditions make for unsound construction practice, materials are not available, or there are difficult site conditions. Such bond shall not exceed 12 months. 5. Building uses requiring 6 or fewer spaces may delay without a bond or the improvement of the parking stalls for up to 12 months, provided that the area is graded and maintained in good condition. February 08, 2010 Sue Roberds, Planning Manager City of Port Angeles P.O. Box 1150 Port Angeles, WA. 98362 RE: The Answer For Youth 711 East Second Street Port Angeles, WA. 98362 CUP 09 -06 Dear Ms. Roberds, RECEAVE1 FEB 08 2010 CITY e f CNG Development My name is Reuben Caldwell. I am a partner in Greenwood Enterprises and was the general contractor overseeing the renovation seven years ago of the structure at 113 S. Eunice St., now known as `Greenwood', working alongside the primary partners, Cheryl Mantle and Michele and Todd Bryant, to create what we hoped would be a safe and inviting therapeutic environment for the community. We continue to upgrade and maintain the structure and grounds and feel it has become a focal point in Port Angeles for those seeking a relaxed, secure, and confidential setting for emotional healing and growth. Currently practicing at Greenwood are licensed mental health therapists /social workers at the Doctorate and Masters level and an Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner. All are highly trained, each with decades of experience treating all degrees of human suffering. I will attempt to present an objective witness to the actions of TAFY next to us at 711 East Second Street since this commission's granting of a temporary use permit for a `youth at risk' facility. However, I must state up front that my partner of 12 years, Ms. Mantle, has been verbally accosted on several occasions, and physically taunted, intimidated and threatened recently by members/staff/clients of TAFY, and so my protective anger understandably will color my interpretation of events. Initially, I gave Ms. Hilgren and TAFY the benefit of the doubt, thinking there was a chance they could thread this needle if they understood the guidelines set out by the city, and assiduously followed them. I visited their facility early on and had frank discussions with the staff On one occasion, Friday, Oct. 20, 2009, I was taken aback by comments made by Ms. Hilgren, so much so that I made notes at the time. In essence what was stated to me by Ms. Hilgren when I asked about age requirements (age13 -24) was the following: Myself: How will you be able to prevent anyone 24 or older from coining in? Hilgren: Oh, 24, 25, 26 ... you know, they all have the same issues, we won't turn anybody away. Myself: So, ... what? 34, 35, 36? Where do you break it off? Hilgren: We won't turn anybody away. Myself: How do you deal with people who are breaking the rules? Hilgren: We won't turn them away ... we love them up. .l 2 Additionally, I have personally witnessed our requests repeatedly ignored by TAFY staff and clients to respect and not use Greenwood's parking lot. They have gone as far as to blatantly deny that they even had to comply. The neglect on the part of TAFY's management to resolve the on -going conflict led to an encounter on the night of January 27 that has me still upset and very concerned. This situation, as told to me by Ms. Mantle, crossed the lines. It was potentially dangerous and caused both Ms. Mantle and myself extreme distress. This incident was followed by a report to the police station and to the city of which I was in attendance. We have since resorted to purchasing a contract with Evergreen Towing to protect our parking facility. If there was a will on the part of TAFY's leadership to instruct and enforce the concept of `boundaries', none of this would be necessary. A fence should not be necessary either. In my opinion, the people TAFY purports to want to help are not well served by mentors who can't or won't enforce the concept of boundaries (physical, emotional, or symbolic), key ingredients in the maturation and healing process, or who continue to create situations in which negative attitudes towards others is demonstrated. Not one staff person from TAFY since the latest incident has reached out to any of us to express concern, a resolution strategy, or regret. In the seven years we've been at 113 Eunice St., we have never had a problem of this nature, including the time when the church was active at the current location of TAFY. Unfortunately, the sentiment in the neighborhood has turned against TAFY's presence and without a concerted effort on TAFY's part to grasp the situation and act responsibly, more conflicts are inevitable. I don't believe that the current state of affairs will change dramatically. We at Greenwood will not hesitate to request a police presence at the slightest provocation going forward. As stated previously, I wanted to give them an opportunity in the beginning to prove they could conduct themselves properly and respectfully within our neighborhood. They did not do this and I no longer believe that their facility belongs in its location. Lastly, I must go on record to state my dismay when at the first hearing the Planning Commission Chairperson made comments regarding his personal relationship with one of TAFY's volunteers who offered testimony. Before and after she spoke, he was sharing with the audience that he knew her, allowed her to speak, and then was vouching for her veracity and thus the project by extension. His statements disqualified himself and the vote immediately following which favored the issuance of the conditional use permit. An appeal was warranted and considered by Greenwood, but we were unable to find a reference in the minutes to these ill- advised comments.

Johns, AICP The Answer For Youth 6 month review The Planning Commission held a public hearing on September 9, 2009, regarding the Conditional Use Permit application CUP 09 -06 for a request to permit an outreach center in the Commercial Office zone. The property is located at 711 E. Second. Street. At that time, the Planning Commission approved the conditional use permit. However, due to concerns expressed by neighboring property owners, the Planning Commission included as a condition of approval that a 6 -month progress report of the operation would be required. The Answer For Youth (TAFY) has been operating in the approved location for 6 months. As requested by Planning Commission, TAFY Executive Director, Susan Hilgren, has submitted a Six- month. Evaluation Report (see attached). The project applicant, Susan Hilgren, is present to provide the Progress Report as required by the Planning Commission. During the 6- months of operation, the city has received letters and comments from neighbors reporting issues with clients of TAFY. The business located directly west of the subject property has reported various incidences where their clients have been inappropriately approached by clients of TAFY, clients at TAFY have used the neighboring business's parking lot and not responded to requests to leave the parking area and neighbors in the area have complained about TAFY clients parking on the street, occupying street parking typically used by those neighborhood residents. Please keep in mind that the 6 month Progress Report to the Planning Commission is just that. The meeting on February 10, 2010, will not include a public hearing on this matter and the Planning Commission cannot take an official action. It is the prerogative of the Chair regarding public comment on this matter. Comments may be heard during the 6 month review discussion period or can be heard during the time regularly allowed for P ublic comments. The Planning Commission can provide a collective recommendation regarding pertinent issues to be addressed prior to permit renewal. Such a recommendation cannot be binding on the applicant at this time. (21512010) Roberta Korcz - TAFY Itr From: To: Date: Subject: MICHELE BRYANT, LJCSW 113 S.

No such border was ever initiated, so we now plan to proceed with a fence on our side of the property line. We have put up signs to alert our visitors that the parking lot adjacent to our facility is not to be used for even temporary parking. • Parking lot problems have lead to some frustration on the part of some neighbors. In an effort to address these issues, we have posted signs, briefed, and continue to brief, all our staff visitors and clients, not to utilize the Parking lot adjacent to our property.

Box 2970 113 South Eunice Street Port Angeles, WA 98362 (360) 452 -2260 February 1, 2010 .•. 4 h . • � \I cr . r'! ( • I ♦ I t - - _ it Please accept this letter as my written evaluation of The Answer For Youth a.k.a TAFY. I wish to share my views of the negative impact that this project has had on my private practice, other clinicians in my building, our clients, and our neighborhood community. It is my understanding that the Planning Commission will be meeting this month to review whether or not the conditions of the original proposal are being met. Therefore, I will respond to the issues of parking and hours/time of operation. I have been a business owner for over 25 years and have had offices in both Port Angeles and Sequim. In fact, when 711 E. Second was occupied as a church, both sides worked in accord. This is the first time that I have experienced such blatant disrespect/disregard from business neighbors. The fact that this organization has either been unable to or unwilling to contain their business to their property speaks volumes. In less than 6 months, I have watched a quiet neighborhood become very chaotic and disrupted. In my previous letter (8- 30-09), I had expressed grave concerns that lack of structure could ultimately create a negative impact on our business and property. I expected problems might arise and I was told by TAFY staff that they wanted to be good neighbors. In fact, even in their proposal and their testimony in front of the Planning Commission, they stated that parking would have minimal impact. I expected that problems would be resolved in a timely and constructive manner. This was not to be the case. Page two TAFY review • • Instead, what has transpired since TAFY has opened for business has left me amazed and exhausted. I have spent nearly every day (including evenings and weekends) having to address parking or trespassing concerns created by them. On numerous occasions I and others have attempted to discuss our concerns with Susan Hillgren, Pam Fosnes and other affiliates of TAFY. However, rather than provide the adequate parking that is mandated by the City, they continued to ignore the problem. The parking situation became worse and they were unwilling to address our requests. Some of the adults became more hostile, aggressive and challenging. I have become their focus because I have tried to stop them from parking in our parking lot. I have been harassed, challenged and physically threatened during the time that they have been next door. A few of the people who have acted this way towards me have identified themselves as the volunteers working with the youth. This is inexcusable behavior. Fighting TAFY over our rights as business owners or needing law enforcement to help us feel safe on our own property is ludicrous. To have to spend this much time trying to get an organization to be responsible for their actions is unnecessary. We have had our business on the corner of 2° and Eunice for nearly 7 years. To the best of my knowledge there has not been a complaint by any of our neighbors. If there had been we would have been on it immediately and cleared up any concerns. Furthermore, we have not ever had to place towing signs on our property. Yet, when I was recently told by a member of TAFY that we "can't stop them from parking on our property unless we have signs up!" (1- 27 -10), I decided enough was enough. We now have signs and the additional yearly cost of keeping those signs visible. All I had actually been shown by this latest event was that there seems to be more investment in challenging our boundaries than there is in being compliant with the laws /conditions of the city or the social norms of a business ownership. Their good intentions are now meaningless to me. As for the hours /days of operation it is problematic to know what is occurring regarding the original youth center agenda as outlined in Ms. Hilgren's proposal. Now there is much more activity (more days open, more hours open, AA/NA meetings of all age levels). It is hard to tell when the youth center is open or if other business is being done simultaneously. It appears that many people come and go and vary considerably in age. The turmoil has been constant. page three TAFY review We have had many occurrences that have been reported and ignored by TAFY: youth hanging out in our parking lot and in our yard, one youth panhandled a client who was sitting in her car in our parking lot, adults wandering into our parking lots and talking to our clients, a TAFY volunteer coming up to the lobby area and being insistent about using the parking lot during the week for recovery meetings (as my clients are trying to get through the door for a group therapy session), just to name a few. Most of us in our building have had to either write or verbally request that the owner and other volunteers do a better job of containing their business to their own area. We have had to calm neighbors who were visibly upset, fearful, anxious and confused by the activities of TAFY. It has been a very unsettling experience. From the onset of this project, including the first hearing, there has been hardship. Which brings me to a situation that I feel compelled to address before closing this letter. Towards the end of the public hearing (09- 09 -09), a woman arrived late asking to speak as a proponent of the project (TAFY). She was immediately recognized by the Chairman, Doc Reiss, and told she could go to the podium. Upon completion of her statements, Chairman Reis announced that he knew her (Cookie Kalfir) and that he believed that anything she was involved with would be a good project. His statement appeared biased and he needed to recuse himself prior to Ms. Kalfir speaking. He did not. I was and still am quite concerned that this misjudgment might have influenced the final vote. And although I do not believe there was any malicious intent involved, this incident is too noteworthy to ignore by all parties concerned. In summary, I believed from the beginning that this project location was a poor choice. My worst concerns have played out in a short amount of time. It is not our responsibility to make TAFY abide by the laws or the guidelines of their conditional use permit. It is the City that must assess the impact of this organization. I am requesting assistance in this matter and a reconsideration of the previous decision. Thank you for your time. Sincerely, 4 1 4d ce Cheryl Ma 1 tle, LMk, NCC Licensed Mental Health Counselor Co- owner/ 113 South Eunice St. • Thank you Sincerely • • THE ANSWER FOR YOUTH PO BOX 633, Port Angeles, WA 98362 theanswer4youth.org RECEIVED JAN 2 9 2010 CITY OF PORT ANGELES BUILDING DIVISION 3; 201m Y-r January 29, 2010 City Of Port Angeles City Engineer This letter is a request for a one year waiver of improvements for the parking lot of the building at 711E 2 " st, Port Angeles, WA. The Answer For Youth currently rents this building from Sara Lee O'Connor. Said facility has an inadequate parking lot under current Port Angeles regulations. The Answer For Youth, as Sara Lee O'Connor's agents, are working on developing a plan for upgrading the parking lot to meet current standards. We plan on submitting a plan shortly, but request your permission to continue our use of the existing parking area while the plan is developed and the parking lot upgraded. We are an all - volunteer non - profit organization and the labor for the parking lot upgrade will be volunteer and therefore we may need the time to complete the upgrade. Susan Hillgren, Executive Director , The Answer For Youth 711 east 2Itd street Port Angeles, WA 98362 Sweet Connections for Homeless Youth Susan Hillgren 360 -670 -4363 Agency Director Sue Roberds - Answer for Youth From: Sue Roberds To: M Bryant Subject: Answer for Youth Dear Ms. Bryant: • • I am very sorry to hear of the turmoil that has been occurring relative to the use of 711 East Second Street and the stress it has caused both Ms. Mantle and your partnership. It is disturbing to know that people who are seeking assistance for a social problem are not respectful of the property rights of others. Ms. Mantle was in this morning and I was unable to speak to her due to pressing deadlines, but we will be meeting on Friday morning. Your property and the subject site are zoned for office use, as you know. The use of the site for professional and business uses is permitted without a conditional use permit. In speaking with Ms. Hilgren this afternoon regarding her progress report and concerns that have been made including a police report being filed by the Mantles, I believe the incidents are relative to the AA meeting use, not the youth activities. I could be wrong about that as I have not spoken to Ms. Mantle as yet about the matter. However, if the incidents are related to a permitted use (business /office use), they would indeed be Police matters and not ones that are related to the use of the site under the conditional use permit. Issues that we can try to resolve under the conditional use permit would be related to the youth activities, e.g., hours of operation, days of operation. A permitted business /office use would have no such restrictions, but you are correct in your statement that a business /office use is required to have adequate off street parking. They are currently working out a parking lot plan, and I have a meeting, also tomorrow (Friday) to discuss that with one of their representatives. I have a feeling that most of the issues of concern are a result of irresponsibility, disrespectful behavior, and some sort of perceived retaliation, when in fact, I would think that people who just want to be left alone would not want to draw attention to themselves. I discussed the matter of someone parking in your parking lot on a weekend, and told Ms. Hilgren that it doesn't matter what day it is, if it's not their property, they shouldn't be parking there. She understands that. She said that she discussed putting up a fence to demark the boundaries such that there would be no mistake where they are, but your partnership discouraged that. It might be a good idea. Certainly I am sorry you have to mark your parking lot for towing purposes, but no one can then say they were not warned. It is disappointing, but appears necessary. I will speak to Ms. Mantle tomorrow, and I will continue to speak to the proponents in an effort to determine if the incidents are youth related. Sincerely, Page 1 of 1 about:blank 1/28/2010 Sue Roberds From: "M Bryant" To: Date: 1/28/2010 1:02 PM • • Page 1 of 1 Dear Ms Roberds, As one of the owners of Greenwood, the therapy office building at 2nd and Eunice, I am writing to express my dismay at the way in which the business which was originally touted as a sanctuary for street youth is being operated. From the beginning there have been infringements upon our property,our renters and our clients from this business. Our therapists and clients have been panhandled on our property by 'youth' from this business. Frequent NA/AA meetings are being held there, which brings in many vehicles and these vehicles are parking in our parking lot. Their own parking lot is a muddy swamp, so they have blocked it off, making it impossible for their clients to park on their property. The streets in this neighborhood are being taken over by cars which block the streets to the nearby resident's for parking. In particular I am writing because there was an ugly incident last night. Cheryl Mantle asked a man to remove his vehicle from our parking lot. He refused to remove it and began yelling at Ms. Mantle. He was joined in this by 4 other people who backed Ms. Mantle up to her own vehicle. She tried to explain that she has nothing against AA/NA but was shouted down. One woman beat on the wind of Ms. Mantle's car then did a 'dance' when Ms. Mantle was finally able to pull away from the curb. This was precisely the sort of incident we were worried about when the conditional use permit was granted for this business. Our worries were dismissed. It is not only we who are concerned. The neighbors are very upset and have taken to coming to us to complain about what they see happening to their neighborhood. We have tried directing them to City Hall but I'm not sure how many you have actually heard from. People in this neighborhood are intimidated by the folks who are hanging around the 'youth' center, and rightfully so. We are all in favor of helping out people who are drug and alcohol addicted and also in favor of providing shelter and food to homeless young people. However, this neighborhood setting is not an appropriate venue for such an effort. Our business is being negatively impacted by this group and we are extremely disturbed by incidents such as the panhandling of our renters and clients and by mob scenes in our parking lot. We are taking the step today of having Evergreen towing put signs into our parking lot stating that illegally parked cars will be towed. This is costing us money that we otherwise would not have had to spend. The cost for this service is $125.00 per year and $14.00 per sign. We will not hesitate to make use of this service but it is sad that we have been forced into such and unhappy situation. file: / /C: \Documents and Settings \sroberds \Local Settings \Temp\XPgrpwise \4B618AE7DO... 1/28/2010 1 -27 -10 Sue Roberds, Planning Manager City of Port Angeles Community and Economic Development Dept.

He said the streets and private parking areas are full of non - resident cars on a regular basis. He expressed frustration at not getting intervention from the City regarding this matter. As a therapist I am concerned at the level of distress occurring in our parking area, and do not want my clients adversely affected by the parking issue in the future. Whatever you can do to bring about adequate parking would be appreciated. Planning CalnInission Minutes 5ep!errmber 9, 2009 Page 5 CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT — CUP 09 -06 — HILGREN. 711East Second Street: Request to permit an outreach center in the Commercial Office zone. Associate Planner Scott Johns reviewed the Department report recommending approval of the conditional use permit with conditions. Commissioner Boyle asked how the operation would be analyzed. Planner Johns responded that the applicant could best answer that question. Mr. Johns added that violations of the City's Municipal Code are enforced by Code Enforcement personnel. Susan Hilgren, 12 Pierce Road, Port Angeles, WA said that there would be a minimum of three qualified volunteers present during hours when youth and young adults are served at the proposed outreach center. She anticipated 25 to 30 youth /young adults could be served within the first year. In response to Commissioner Powers, Ms. Hilgren responded that the age group of those served can be from 13 to 24 years of age but is most likely to be in the17, 18, 19 year age range from past experience. In discussion regarding whether the ``kids" referred to are youth or young adults, Ms. Hilgren said she considers those served by the outreach center to be kids because they are younger than middle age. All of those served are needy in spirit. Ms. Hilgren distributed three letters of support from Jim Borte, Project Coordinator, Clallam County Sheriffs Department, Patsy Feeley, and David Hull, President Board of Trustees, Unity of the Olympics, Port Angeles, that were read into the record by Planning Manager Sue Roberds. In response to Commissioner Boyle, Ms. Hilgren said that she absolutely counsels those served of the need to seek gainful employment. She and other volunteers help to teach those served how to fill out applications and handle job interview and responsibility situations. In response to Commissioner Reiss, as to what the proposed outreach center would provide that the existing DreamCenter does not offer, Ms. Hilgren stated that the DreamCenter offers only a place to stay, the outreach center hopes to also provide spiritual needs and follow through with teaching those served how to deal with every day issues and become responsible citizens. The outreach center will operate on a limited basis due to the need to provide adequate supervision when open. Hours of operation will be Monday, Wednesday, and. Friday from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. and. Saturday 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. The center will be locked when there are not volunteers present to supervise. She asked if AA meetings and/or a daycare center would be possible at the site. Pam Fosnes, 1028 East Seventh Street addressed the Commission regarding the location of the outreach center in relationship to other uses in the area. A glass recycling center and other light industrial uses are found east of the proposed location in the immediate vicinity, a park is south across the street, an active commercial corridor is across the alley to the north, and apartment and residential uses are east. This is not a quiet area at present as has been stated by public comment in the staff report. Many kids already frequent the area. Ms. Hilgren is a licensed counselor who has worked with families and youth issues for many years. She is passionate about her work and Planning Commission 14inuies September 9, 2009 Page 6 • • serving youth. She helped start the DreamCenter and will supervise volunteers at the proposed center. Ms. Fosnes stated that she is a registered nurse who is trained in assessing physical and psychological needs. If it is perceived that there is a need that cannot be addressed by the volunteers, they will not hesitate to refer to another responsible professional. The volunteers are respectful of veterans' needs and those of needy people seeking help. Music will only be of the sort conducive to relaxation and will be kept inside the structure, not in the parking area, or such that it can be heard outside the building. Loud music is not conducive to quality conversation. David Hall, 343 Hause Road, Port Angeles, WA is a volunteer with the center. He is a licensed emergency medical technician and retired from the Air Force. He has worked with outreach centers and is anxious to work in this program as a supporting volunteer. Those served will be taught respect, responsibility, and will be monitored as to their progress and short comings with love and respect in return. Other centers offer only support for the physical person. This outreach center will support the physical and spiritual needs of those served. Carey Canby, 712 East Second Street lives in the neighborhood. She asked why the location was chosen and why the DreamCenter is not satisfactory? It doesn't seem that another center is needed such a short distance apart. She objected to the activity and thought that some of her other neighbors felt the same who had not come to the meeting. In response to Chair Reiss, Ms. l-Iilgren responded that most of the volunteers previously worked at the DreamCenter. There being no further testimony or questions, Chair Reiss closed the public hearing. Commissioner Caudill asked staff how concerns would be tracked. Attorney Greenwood answered that Pen Corn would record any complaints reported to the Police Department and Municipal Code issues such as noise, would be investigated by either the Police Department or the City's Code Enforcement personnel. Chair Reiss re opened the public hearing to those who had arrived late to the meeting. Cookie Kalfir, 221 Mt. Pleasant Summit, Port Angeles, WA stated that she is the principal of Choice School. The proposed center is not a drug abuse facility. The area will be significantly improved from what is there now. The outreach center does not recognize barriers but serves the whole person, not just the physical person. There being no one else wishing to speak, Chair Reiss once again closed the public hearing. Commissioners Matthews and Boyle were concerned regarding the method of reporting activities at the center. Other Commissioners spoke regarding the need for assistance in the community with social issues and stressed that, if approved, strict conditions would need to be observed by those served to be respectful of other uses in the area. Times of operation would need to be strictly adhered to. Chair Reiss noted that he was familiar with Cookie Kalfir and her work as principal of Choice School. Planning Commission Minutes September 0, 2009 Page 7 • Planning Manager Roberds noted that this is a land use issue and the matter must be decided on its merits relative to land use impacts. Commissioners continued to discuss the need for monitoring activities at the site and its location in a mixed commercial location with a mix of office and residential uses as well. Commissioner Matthews thought that a review period could be helpful to ascertain progress and impacts that may not have been considered. Commissioner Caudill moved to approve the conditional use permit subject to 2 conditions, and citing 12 findings and 4 conclusions in support of that action as follows: Conditions: 1. The permit shall be issued for a period of one year. To evaluate neighborhood impacts, a six month progress report will be submitted for review by the Planning Commission. The applicant shall submit a letter requesting review and subsequent extension of the conditional use permit no less than 2 months prior to the end of the one -year approval period (no later than the first week of July, 2010) . to provide staff adequate time to notice, review, and . schedule appropriate meetings for consideration of extension of the permit. 2. Hours of operation shall be limited to 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and 4:30 — 6:30 on Saturday. Findings: Based on the information provided in the Community and Economic Development Staff Report for CUP 09 -06 dated September 9, 2009, including all information in the public record file, comments and testimony presented during the public hearing, the Planning Commission discussion and deliberation, and the above listed conditions of approval, the City of Port Angeles Planning Commission hereby finds that: 1. Susan Hilgrcn submitted Conditional Use Permit application CUP 09 -06 to locate a youth outreach center at 711 E. 2nd Street. 2. The site is zoned Commercial Office. 3. The Comprehensive Plan designates the site as Commercial. Adjacent designations are also Commercial, with nearby designation including Open Space and Low Density Residential. The site is located in the City's North Central Planning Area. Development in the surrounding area includes a wide variety of commercial uses, both low and high density residential uses, and a park. 4. Per 17.96.050 PAMC, the Planning Commission shall consider applications for conditional use permit uses as specified in the applicable Chapter of the Zoning Regulations. The Planning Commission may grant said permits which are consistent and compatible with the purpose of the zone in which the use is located, consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, and not contrary to the public use and interest. In each application the Planning Commission may impose whatever restrictions or conditions are considered essential to protect the public health, safety, welfare, and to prevent depreciation of neighboring property. Conditional uses Planning Commission Minutes September 9. 2009 Page 8 • • shall be evaluated to determine if the characteristics of the intended use as related to the specific proposed site would defeat the purpose of the City's Zoning Regulations by introducing incompatible, detrimental, or hazardous conditions. The Planning Commission may refuse to issue a conditional use permit if the characteristics of the intended use would defeat the purpose of the City's zoning regulations. 5. City staff has determined that the proposed use is compatible with the intent of the zone and can be considered for approval by conditional use in the Commercial Office zone. 6. The City's Comprehensive Plan was reviewed for consistency with the proposal. Land Use Element, Land Use Map Goal A, Policies 1 & 2; Commercial Goal D, Policy 2; Utilities and Public Services Element, Goal B, Policy 3; Economic Development Element, Goal A, Policy 8; were found to be most relevant to the proposal. 7. A development that is approved through the conditional use permit process must remain in continual compliance with specific conditions of approval or may be revoked. 8. Reviewing City Departmental comments were considered in the review of this application. No objections or concerns were raised by reviewing departments. 9. Notification of the proposed action and conditional use permit application was placed in the Peninsula Daily News on August 17, 2009. Public notice was mailed to property owners within 300 feet of the subject property on August 14, 2009. Notice of the proposal was posted on the site on August 18, 2009. Three public comment letters were received during the public comment period. The letter writers-all were concerned about the level and quality of supervision provided at the center, the nature of activities to be offered by the center and how the activities may affect existing neighborhood activities, and that the clientele described in the application materials would bring an increase of adverse or disruptive social issues and behaviors to the neighborhood. 10. Application materials indicate the hours of operation will be from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturdays. Application materials further indicate that the center's mission and intent is to mitigate and reduce the source of the adverse social issues and behaviors through education, counseling, and access and direction to community resources. 11. A Determination of Non - Significance was issued for this proposed action on September 2, 2009. 12. The Planning Commission opened a public hearing on the proposal at the September 9, 2009, regular meeting. Conclusions: Based on the information provided in the Department of Community and Economic Development Staff Report for CUP 09 -06 dated September 9, 2009, including all of the information in the public record file, comments, and testimony presented during the public hearing, the Planning Commission's discussion and deliberation, and the above listed conditions of approval and listed findings, the City of Port Angeles Planning Commission hereby concludes that: 1.

These organizations include: Boys Scouts of America, Camp Fire Girls, Yes To Youth, Prevention Works!, Port Angeles Healthy Youth Coalition, Special. Olympics, America's PRIDE, and the Clallam County Community Network. I am very familiar with the many needs and varied challenges that the youth of our community face in today's world. Some of there come from broken homes, others are living on their own . and still others are homeless. Many have dropped out of school and have had difficulty finding gainful employment in today's struggling economy. In several cases, they have been negatively impact by their own drug use of that of others in their life. For far too many of them, there are limited programs and resources available to assist them. Despite the incredible work of so many groups, agencies, and programs for local youth, there is still a huge need for more efforts and involvement. The challenge for "The Answer for Youth" is undeniable and tremendous. I wholeheartedly support their vision and plans. I urge you to do all that you can to make their dreams a reality and to help those young people with such desperate needs.

Thanks to email editing I got an article in the wrong place in the first copy. mb Original Message From: M Bryant To: Sjohns @cityofpa us Sent: Wednesday, September 09, 2009 9:15 AM Dear Mr. Johns, I have carefully read and reread your Fetter concerning the proposed youth center at 711 E 2nd Street, Port Angeles I have a couple of questions for you and I hope you can take some time to answer them this morning. The first question is, if problems arise with the youth center, whom do we contact? We are running a profitable and sensitive business right next door. If we begin to have young people camping in our nicely landscaped patio area, find obnoxious litter in our yard, are plagued with Rap music, to whom do we complain? We cannot wait 10 months to have a chance to point out issues such as these. May we call you, since you are the person who is recommending the approval of the conditional use permit? Secondly, it has been brought to my attention that you have a prior relationship with Ms. Hilgren; that you and she are on "friendly' terms and that you consider her to be a "nice person'':. Since you seem predisposed to approve of her personally, it seems to me that you might possibly have a bias in your approval of her business plan. I understand that this is a small town and people do know one another. However, in this case it seems to me that you might have recused yourself from this decision, leaving it up to someone who had no personal bias in this matter. This decision of yours impacts my business in what can only be a negative way. I'm terribly unhappy about the apparent ease in which your decision was made without further comment from us or more discussion. Sincerely, Michele Bryant, LICSW Page 2 j TO: FROM: DATE: • W A S H I N G T O N , p OR.T NGEL s U.S.A. COMMUNITY & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT Planning Commission Scott K. Johns, Associate Planner September 9, 2009 RE: Conditional Use Permit CUP 09 -06 APPLICANT: Susan Hilgren OWNER: Sara Lee O'Connor LOCATION: 711 E. 2nd REQUEST: Allow an outreach center for youth and young adults in the CO zone. RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Division recommends that the Planning Commission approve CUP 09 -06 with 2 conditions, citing 10 findings and 3 conclusions in support of that action as listed in Attachment A. EXISTING CONDITIONS IN AREA: The site is located at 711 E. 2nd Street in Port Angeles and currently contains a vacant building that has most recently been used as a church. The site is generally level and contains no other buildings. An area to the west of the building has been graded and graveled to allow parking on the site. The site is zoned Commercial Office. Surrounding land uses include single family residences to the east, even though those parcels are zoned for high density residential use (RHD), and across 2nd Street to the south where the zoning is Residential Single Family (RS -7). Directly to the east of the subject site is a private professional counseling office, also located in the Commercial Office (CO) zone. Properties to the north and . west of Eunice Street are zoned Commercial. Arterial (CA). Developed land uses in the CA zone include single family residences, apartments, and commercial uses. To the southwest of the site is Webster Park. Also located within the general area are Civic Field, Erickson Park containing the Dream Playground and the skate park, the YMCA, and a wide variety of commercial and residential uses. DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: City Departments reviewed the proposal and provided the following comments: The Fire Department reviewed the application and had no comments or objections. Department of Commtlnny Development S�eport CUP 09 -06 — Hilgren The Public Works and Utilities Department had no comments, September 9, 2009 Page 2 The Building Division of DCED will require building permits for improvements that involve structural work. PUBLIC COMMENT: Notification of the proposed action was placed in the Peninsula Daily News on. August 17, 2009, posted on the subject property on August 18, 2009, and mailed to property owners within 300 feet . of the subject property on August 14, 2009. The public comment period closed on August 31, 2009. One comment letter was received via e -mail during the public comment period. The letter writer operates a private counseling service at the property directly adjacent to the west side of the subject site. The concerns expressed are that the zoning is for office and residential only and that the proposed youth center does not expressly fit those categories. The author stated that the proposed . use is not appropriate for the site. Further, there is concern that allowing a youth center to begin operating next door would jeopardize their business as the success of the business is predicated on having a secure and quiet space and the serene setting of their business. The inclusion of music as part of the youth center activity description raised concern of disruption to their business due to potential loud volume. Some clients of the counseling center are veterans with combat related posttraumatic stress disorder who are hypersensitive to the sound of children's voices and modern music. The letter writer continues to question the appropriateness of the age range of clientele proposed by the applicant and that the center would be run by volunteers. Parking on site is another issue raised. The letter is attached for your reference. ANALYSIS: The entire Comprehensive Plan and Port . Angeles Municipal Code were reviewed with regard to the proposal and the references listed in Attachment C were found to be the most relevant to the proposal. In addition to the Comprehensive Plan goals and policies, development regulations in the Commercial Office zone are also included in Attachment C to this staff report. The City's Comprehensive Plan and Land Use Map identify the area as being located in the North Central Planning Area and the site is designated as Commercial. The 10,444 square foot site is zoned Commercial Office (CO) and has been used as a church for the past several years. The building has been vacant or unused for several months. The building contains separate restrooms, a kitchen /dining area, and a second floor with smaller rooms, in addition to a main gathering area. The site contains a graveled parking area on the west side of the structure. The Commercial Office zone is a commercial one intended for those business, office, administrative or professional uses that do not involve the retail sale of goods, but rather provide a service to clients, the provision of which does not create high traffic volumes, involve extended hours of operation, or contain impacts that would be detrimental to adjacent residential areas". Although a youth drop -in center is not specifically listed as a permitted or conditional use in the CO zone, the proposed center meets several of the criteria listed in the purpose section of the CO zone, including: no retail sales; provision of services to clients; not creating high traffic volumes; and not having extended hours of operation. There are currently several uses that are listed as permitted or conditional that have similar characteristics and activities that the applicant is proposing. Those Department of Community Developments ii , Report CUP 09 -06 — Hilgren • September 9, 2009 Page 3 uses with similarities to the proposed use include; personal services facilities, business and professional offices, and personal instruction. PAMC 17.20.160 (P) allows "other uses compatible with the intent of this Chapter" conditionally to be located in the CO zone. The application materials indicate that activities proposed will include such things as counseling regarding substance abuse, classes for employment preparation such as food handlers license or resume writing, parenting and family planning classes, other life skills classes, and spiritual counseling. The center's stated function does not include entertainment or recreation activities, however, it is stated that "music will happen on a routine basis ". Discussions with the applicant have indicated that the music that will be provided will act as background only and not be the focus at the center. Application materials also indicate that the center will act as a connection between churches, service organizations and agencies, businesses, schools, and the public. It is staffs conclusion that the proposed use does meet the criteria of compatibility with the intent of the Commercial Office zone and is therefore allowable as a conditional use in the zone. Proposed operating hours for the center are limited and are stated as from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturdays. No night time activities are proposed. The center is to be staffed by volunteers with a minimum of 3 trained adults on site during all operating hours. No detail as to the level or subject of training of the adult supervisors was provided. The site contains six off - street parking spaces. Additional area for parking is readily available for additional parking if the need arises. It is not anticipated that additional parking will be required. Due to the nature of the programs offered and the expected clientele at the center, it is unlikely that additional parking needs will arise. A similar center is located within 2 blocks of the subject site. Observations of that operation and discussions with staff have indicated that parking is not an issue at that center. The site is situated in an area of the city with a wide range of surrounding uses. The site is not on an arterial thoroughfare but is one block from First Street, which provides transit service and commercial activity. Several parks and recreational facilities are nearby and additional social services exist within a reasonable distance. Even though this type of use is not unique and another such use exists in the vicinity, the full extent of potential impacts to a neighborhood may not be completely anticipated. Concern has been raised by neighbors as to how the use may impact the neighborhood. Due to these concerns and uncertainty regarding impacts, it is suggested that the use be reviewed after a reasonable period of time of operation and provided with the opportunity to mitigate unanticipated impacts, or in the event that unanticipated impacts are detrimental to the neighborhood and not able to be mitigated, that the conditional use be discontinued. STATE ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT (SEPAL REVIEW: A Determination of NonSignificance was issued for this proposed action on September 2, 2009, per WAC 197 -11 -355. This satisfies the City's responsibility under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA).

Box 2970 113 South Eunice St. Port Angeles, WA. 98362 (360) 452 -2260 AUG RECEIVE 3 r 2009 -' CITY OF PORT ANGELES Dept. of Community Development My name is Cheryl Mantle. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and the co -owner of the property located next door to the proposed location for "The Answer for Youth" outreach business submitted by Susan L. Hillgren. My partner, Michele Bryant, LCSW, and I have owned our property (1 13 South Eunice) for over 6 years. Currently, our office spaces are fully rented to professional tenants who are all licensed in the mental health field. We have worked diligently to be an asset to our neighbors and have received favorable input throughout the years. We value the quietness of the neighborhood, a particular sense of safety, and even a substantial level of discretion that our offices provide our clientele, as well as our tenants. This was one of the primary reasons we chose the location that we did. We were aware of the residential /office zoning for this area. Likewise, we were aware that the church next door had a small congregation and its' Sunday activities would not conflict with our regular business hours. We are also aware that a business such as the proposed The Answer For Youth does not fall under the normal zoning for this neighborhood. When it was brought to my attention that this proposal had been submitted I requested a copy of the application. After reading Ms. Hillgren's plan I felt compelled to send a letter. The proposal states that: "The board of directors expect minimal impact on the neighborhood ...We do not expect any issues concerning noise levels and /or outside traffic. All of us who are working currently with this population feel rarely is this a big problem." The first question that I have is what is the definition of a "big problem "? Ms. Hillgren describes the targeted population as "streetwise and high risk youth." This could indicate a higher incidence of complex issues that could surface frequently. Examples would be mental health issues, substance abuse, violent behaviors, or legal issues. These issues alone could have a significant impact on the neighborhood. What are the safeguards in place if the "encouraged quiet activities" are ignored by the population to be served? Additionally, I am guessing that the volunteer supervision would primarily occur inside the building. There will be an increase of population in the neighborhood of underage youth and young adults that may be homeless or that may not have any place to go after hours, except on adjoining properties, etc. If this is the case, what are the safeguards of this organization regarding after hours loitering, etc.? r Sincerely, • I Professionally, I have concerns, as well. First of all, the business plan states that "the goal is the betterment of the welfare of streetwise and high risk youth." Although the statement sounds beneficial, I am unclear as to how a Youth - oriented center could contain an age group ranging from 13 -24 year olds. Legally, 18 -24 year olds are adults. I am perplexed as to how streetwise adults could be placed in an environment with children and be called "youth ". This decision is quite disconcerting to me. Secondly, I wonder how the youths' emotional needs will be evaluated in order to meet the goal "to provide an environment that will allow inner growth and meet spiritual and emotional needs." Who does the evaluating? Finally, the phrase "allow the inner child to come forth" begs several further inquiries. What does this organization mean exactly by this statement? I am left with more questions than answers: • At what capacity are the volunteers trained to anticipate emotional difficulties that could surface and be detrimental to the youth or others? • Who among the volunteers has the proper training to assess how /when/where a youth requires prompt intervention? • Which agencies, community organizations, private practitioners are currently on board with this project that have training /experience working with at risk youth/young adults? • Who supervises the volunteers? What is the supervisor's training/expertise in working with this target population? In summary, I worked for years with the Clallam /Jefferson Counties Juvenile System before going into private practice as a licensed mental health therapist in 1985. I have been involved in many youth programs within our community and was one of the founders of several (e.g., The Choice Alternative School, Juvenile Diversion). I believe that I have a fairly clear understanding of the numerous issues that can be faced by the targeted population, such as physical /mental health issues, substance abuse, homelessness, legal issues ( including violence), pregnancy and STDs, and insufficient schooling, just to name a few. I also believe that to assist an at- risk youth in gaining personal success can be quite gratifying. I commend this group for wanting to offer these young people support. It seems like the concept could work so easily. I don't believe that to be the case. There are too many questions unanswered and significant concerns raised for me to feel comfortable supporting this plan. I sense a significant lack of structure that could ultimately lead to a negative impact on my business and property. Therefore I want to go on record as being against the location of 711 East 2n Street for The Answer For Youth business. Thank you for your time in this matter. Cheryl MA, LMHC, NCC Licensed Mental Health Therapist 2 (0812812009) Scott Johns - 'Answer for Youth' mment. From: "M Bryant" <mbryant @wavecable.coma To: <Sjohns@cityofpa.us> Date: 08/24/2009 8:45 AM Subject: 'Answer for Youth' comment Mr. Johns, I have several concerns about this proposal. My name is Michele Bryant. I am a state licensed clinical social worker (LICSW #00005288) with a private psychotherapy practice. My business associate Cheryl Mantle,state licensed LMHP, has already spoken with you. Jointly we own and operate Greenwood, a therapy center at 113 S. Eunice Street, Port Angeles. We are situated right beside the Church of God at 711 E. 2nd Street, the site upon which "Answer For Youth' is proposing to situate their "Youth Center". First of all, at our location, the zoning is for office and residential only. I don't understand how a youth center, especially a youth center for "At Risk Youth" could possibly be considered to be an appropriate use of this quiet area. When Ms Mantle and I purchased this property the zoning was a concern of ours. We were assured by the City that no use other than Residential and Office would be allowed here. We are mental health professionals ourselves and purchased and renovated our building at considerable expense, in order to have a secure and quiet space for ourselves and to rent out office space to other therapists. Our building is currently rented at full capacity to fully licensed, qualified, mental health professionals. The success of our business plan is largely because of the serene setting we are able to offer at our therapy center. I am concerned that allowing a youth center to begin operating next door would jeopardize our successful business as well as the business of our current renters. . For instance, In the business plan Answer for Youth states that "music will be offered on a routine basis ". The music that appeals to youth is usually not conducive to a quiet and peaceful setting. Furthermore, a large percentage of my client base is composed of combat veterans, suffering from combat- related posttraumatic stress disorder. These veterans tend to be hypersensitive to the sound of children's voices and the sounds of modern music. I am particularly concerned about the noise factor on the behalf of my veteran clients. I am very familiar with the term At Risk Youth I held a state contract for 5 years to provide in -home family counseling (FRS /Family Reconciliation Service) for families who were dealing with an 'At Risk' child. Speaking from the vantage point of my education and experience, I question the wisdom of any enterprise in which 13 -year old children are encouraged to interact with 24 -year olds, particularly when the business plan refers to all of their client population as 'youths'. 24 -year olds are not 'youths'. They are young adults and they should not be spending a lot of time in the company of young teen - agers. The business proposal I read sounds well- intentioned but also quite naive. In my experience, volunteers are seldom well enough trained or qualified to supervise such a diverse age spread in a safe and appropriate manner, particularly when the youth they are trying to help are, by definition, troubled kids. The only parking available to this center would be street parking on an already busy street. Kids over the age of 16 often operate their own vehicles. They would have no parking space either. I suppose that part of the lawn could be turned into a parking lot, but that would certainly not benefit the appearance of the neighborhood, and it would also negatively impact the appearance of our building and grounds since the church property abuts our property. Even if I were not operating a business next door to this newly proposed youth center, I would have many questions and concerns about the qualifications and goals of the people who are petitioning to install and run it. As a property owner whose property and source of livelihood will be negatively impacted by this proposed center, I am terribly distressed by the prospect, and would urge the City to prevent the implementation of this plan.
