Subject: Public Comments Item #3, August 25, 2021, Mr. Omari, Parcel #510-47-045
Good Evening Planning Commissioners, we are the property owners, Jean & David Ebrahimoun, adjacent
to the Mr. Omari applicant.
First, we would like to welcome Mr. Omari and family to the neighborhood. We are the adjacent
property owners (parcel 510-46-006 and 510-46-007) for the past 37 years.
We are not in disagreement with the proposed architecture plan as long as this development does NOT
interfere or encroach within our Right of Way easement. The ROW easement is the only access for
parcel 510-46-007, which had a home that burned down prior to our purchase and was confirmed by the
chain of title report.
Our Engineer, Mr. Frank Lewis, and us are available on zoom this evening, if you have further questions.
Thank you for your time.
Jean/David Ebrahimoun (Ebrahimi)
