As a resident of Douglas County, I urge the Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission and the Lawrence City Commission to deny the request to rezone the Tower Site property at 2111 East 15th Street in Lawrence from single family housing to the high density RM32 apartment category. The proposal would build the largest high density apartment complex in Lawrence in a neighborhood of primarily owner-occupied single-family homes and would remove land from single family neighborhood development opportunity. This proposal is contrary to numerous goals detailed in our Plan 2040 and would create disruption to neighborhood character, environmental preservation goals, traffic safety standards, and stormwater control concerns. While we support increasing housing opportunity, this is 10 times greater density than the surrounding residential areas, the largest increase in density ever proposed for a Lawrence neighborhood, and this is not an appropriate location for a complex of this size.
