    I am opposed to the rezoning of the 3.2 acres for a myriad of reasons, among them that the Casa investors intentionally abandoned 18 existing employee apartments, letting them become a neighborhood eyesore. They converted another 16 deed restricted units to office space and frankly, should not be rewarded for their irresponsibility in maintaining their own property. No other luxury hotel is being given the ability to expand their transient rental footprint because they let their property go to seed, why should Casa be given preferential treatment in the form of an extremely profitable transient rental zone? It is not a precedent the Planning Board should want to start.
