Dear Mayor Packard and Council Mmbers:
For a number of years, the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce has worked fa developwnt of an econamically viable "Village Area". The Chamber back in
had worked with the property owners and the City for the development of off-street parking and encouragement of property owners to update t properties. In the early '70s additional efforts were rrade to get a pa
project underway while dressing up the streets and storefronts. In the mic
the Chamber hired Economic Research Associates to undertake a study ( "village area'' and its potential.
In the late 70's the Chamber urged the Council to develop a pla
redevelopment of the "village area", and the responded by the establishmen-
Redevelopment Advisory Committee and hired Jack Henthorn to serve 2 Director of Housing and Redevelopment. The Chamber was happy that a numl
the members of the advisory ccnrmittee were selected to serve on further the potentials of the "village area" and serve on the current adv
camittee.
The Chamber Wrd of Directors have been updated on actions of the adi committees over the years and have kept pace with much that is planned f
redeveloptrmt of the area.
to the Council encouraged you to take an even mre aggressive stance i
Redevelopment of the "Village area" by providing off-street parking and in street design and traffic studies. The development of the parking lot a'
and State Street was a step forward, but only the beginning to fill some needs of the area.
The Chamber Board of Directors at their meeting on June 3, 1981 again re their strong support for the concept of the "Village Redevelopnnent" and a1
support the proposed VILLAGE REDEvELf3pMENT PLAN in concept, reserving the to: make specific recommendations on programs and individual projects would be presented at a future date. We believe that it is essential tk development of the 27 block area NOW will provide greater interest "village area" not only as a place to invest and do business, but for pec

To Whom It May Concerc:
I am exlosing a letter I have recently sent to Hiss Carole Stewart relative to my opposition to her redevelopment GE the Royal Falms Motel into a "Bazaar Del Mundo".
Ocean Street to we honeowners is il home and resort
Recently with the added pedestrian traffic seeking fun and recreation, heavy burdens have been placed tipon us as homeowners in terms of the burden of protection and maintenance of our property. Royal Palms presently cannot service adequately its present patrons and I can
only imagine the worsening of conditions should further development of their property be permittec?.
I an! fully opposed to this redevelopment as stated abcve and I want to go on record stating such. am an out of state owner, I frequent my home in Carlsbad several times yearly and want very much to maintain it as a resort home for my family and friends.

Dear bIs. Stewart:
This is to acknowledge receipt of your May 31st letter regarding the proposed improvements to the four acre
grounds of the Royal Palms blotel,
Your letter solicits my coments as a property owner west from Royal Palms on Ocean Street. go on record stating that I very much oppose such a
development as the type described as "Bazaar Del Mundo". I state emphatically that 1: see this only as a monetary value venture for you and Royal Palms, but having a very definite negative effect on our home and beach property .
It has become apparent the past several years thzt the amount of street activity, as well as the surrounding area's activity, has increzsed to the point of making Ocean Street unsafe for automobile driving,. to say nothing of the safety of my children crossing this busy street.
Besides the street congestion, we have had continued
beaches continues to worsen because of the lack of people activity control, several years ago with the new restaurant, added tennis courts, etc. increased your patronization and in turn
increased the number of people on Ocean Street. It js
apparent to date that adequate parking is not abucdant for your present operation let alone a new full scale
development being permitted---I can only imagine the
confusion and traffic this would create.
I do want to say I appreciate your letter of announcement and should you want to discuss this in greater detail with
me, please feel free to contact me directly.
I would like to

We have heard of redevelopment projects that have failed and been left with many empty stores due to higher rents and owners left with large redevelop- ment debts.
We love our downtown Carlsbad and realize it does need some uplifiting but please don't do it at the expense of those of us who have struggled to pay for our businesses and properties and can ill afford to lose them,
We hle feel it is very unjust for those of US who
