OPINION: Neighbor Opposes Midnight and Extended Hours for the Piedmont Post Sublease of the Piedmont Center for the Arts
Proposed Conditional Use Permit for 801 Magnolia by the Piedmont Post
Monday, December 11, 2017
Dear Mr. Kevin Jackson, Piedmont Planning Director:
I live on Vista Avenue and I am a neighbor to the Piedmont Center for the Arts. I have been invited by the City to comment on the use of 801 Magnolia by the Piedmont Post. I am completely against the Piedmont Post using this location.
As I understand it, the hours of operation include the middle of the night. My house is very close to this location and I strongly object to the noise of trucks, cars and people in this area at all hours, including the evening, night and early morning.
By granting this permit you will have impacted my quiet enjoyment of my home and that of my neighbors. Such use may well constitute a nuisance. I request that this permit be denied. I do not believe a business should be in this public arts space.
Sincerely,
Rachel Asa, Piedmont Resident
Editors Note: Opinions expressed are those of the author.
Placing The Post in the Arts building will give the appearance that The Post speaks for Piedmont and IT DOES NOT. The Post has supported our ex-mayor and continues publishing views that are biased.
The residents of Piedmont have all different views.
The Post should not appear as the mouthpiece of the City.
The Post is the Media Outlet of the City and will soon be located on City Property after Dec. 18, 2017 unless residents speak up.
