Dear Commissioner Taylor: I am writing today in my continued opposition to the One Naples project as proposed. I understand that, at a recent special meeting of the Commissioners, a decision was made to hold the March 1st hearing at the Commissioners’ chamber in the County office building. Because of the COVID-19 virus, and the social distancing it requires, this venue is not conducive to the very large turnout by all those who have an opinion about One Naples, pro or con. I hope that you and your fellow Commissioners will reconsider. Better locations might include St John the Evangelist Church, North Collier County Regional Park, a Collier County School auditorium, or even the Phil at Artis. Thank you for your consideration. __________________________

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, __________________________

Hi Neighbor, I am not sure that you are aware of the terrible development that is proposed for the corner of Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive. Stock Development is proposing a huge residential project containing 240 condominiums in three seven-story buildings and two eighteen story towers, taller than the Ritz and the many other residential buildings in the area! Stock has lots of arguments about why he should be entitled to build a development containing three times the currently approved density, but these argument are without merit as you will see if you check out this website, www.savevanderbiltbeach.com. I want you to know that I have registered with the site and that I strongly support its efforts. I sure hope that you will check it out and do the same. We must work together to keep our neighborhood’s character. It’s why we live here! Thanks!
