I agree that it would be beneficial to see the plans being proposed for the mall area. I would not call it fear-mongering but genuine interest and concern from residents.
Ms. Michelle Barnes mentioned in Wednesday's community forum, in reference to plans to add housing to the mall "(...) and so right now, what we are thinking of doing, would in fact decrease the amount of commercial space we have at the mall." (time: 1:47:07 in the link <https://us06web.zoom.us/rec/play/znDCQTI8JODPCBigEyn3ciNzSSkiFEaY5DKcX01m8qHFWitTFZEWgT0-f2VAWsTJW5sTqKLkRvFHIebe.kVV38K48IL_zXUym?canPlayFromShare=true&from=share_recording_detail&continueMode=true&componentName=rec-play&originRequestUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fus06web.zoom.us%2Frec%2Fshare%2FWEfGuiHfOhL67vMkJic2_iDKJqaG3ZXtKc6Ndvt4OvRrvRhQ4n8N8AEWihl9u1ax.PzfpejYlKCLMyRNR> shared by Ms. Jennifer Glass) The HCAWG has stated 2 of their guiding principles are to "support and maintain our small commercial center" and "promote decarbonization and climate change adaptation by rezoning near transportation and amenities." My worry would be that a reduction in our commercial space might impact those goals. Being able to see actual plans would go a long way in alleviating residents' concerns. > > ---------- Forwarded message --------- > From: John Kimball <selen...@earthlink.net> > Date: Fri, Nov 10, 2023 at 08:09 > Subject: [LincolnTalk] housing for the mall > To: lincolntalk <lincoln@lincolntalk.org> > > > I strongly support the plans of the RLF to show their plans for housing at > the mall.
