Hello Ms. Winston (cc to Planning Board),
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this project.  The application is still a 
preliminary one and subject to change.  The Town is coordinating with the 
property owner at this point but we will see where the application and design 
goes from here.  We are required by law to review their application and are 
guided by the Site Plan Regulations, Zoning Ordinance, and Settlement 
Agreement negotiated with the Town Council.  That said, the Planning Board is 
very concerned that the project be an excellent one and it continues to push for 
optimal design elements.  In the end, if the proposal meets the requirements then 
the board is bound to approve it, though the board does have discretion in 
various aspects of its review.  If approved, there will be many conditions and the 
property owner will be required to comply with those conditions.  Best regards.

I think the new plan for the Durham Plaza area is awful. It looks crowded. The 
developer is just greedy. It was not enough for him to obtain rent from the business 
tenants, he decided that renting parking space for students would be a great idea! 
And now he wants to change everything. I can't believe the town is actually 
working with this man--the same man who ignored the water plumbing problem 
between the Bagelry and Durham Market, which was caused by his builders. I hold 
no hope for fair reconciliation of any future problems that might occur; I see no 
reconciliation at all. Anyone who refuses to deal with a little problem is certainly 
not going to be Johnny on the Spot for larger ones.
