As a recent home buyer in the GESC community, I am of course not pleased with this new development. I did not make it to last night’s meeting, but have been to previous ones, and it is very frustrating to see how the greed of the land and building developers is overriding any ounce of common sense and decency for a community. From what I have seen of the EIR document, it is experts writing reports to support the point of view of the people writing their checks. I have lived in San Carlos my entire life, and one of the things that draws people here, is that sense of a small town. It seems that greed is slowly destroying that. It is really too bad… I would be interested in your professional opinion of how the transit village will affect property values in the GESC? Particularly on Old County Road? Ashley Bob,
