Box 272000 City: Corpus Christi State / Province: TX Postal / Zip Code: 78427 Yes District 4 Objection to Request to Change Zoning 24-1072 This request was rejected by the City Council before. The only difference this time is the location was shifted over a few feet to avoid providing notice to my family and neighbors. An RV park is inconsistent with the development plan for Mustang Island. Mustang Island needs hotels, resorts, condos and high -end residential. Allowing this RV park will cause significant loss in property value and make traffic congestion on Mustang Island and the logistics of evacuation in the event of a hurricane significantly worse. The City Council has already granted a special use permit with certain restrictions to allow another RV park very close to this property. Two RV parks in close proximity would be even worse. Please deny the requested zoning change, but if you don't deny, at least limit them to a special use permit with similar restrictions to those approved before, such as max 8 RV sites per acre / RV sites min 30' wide / only 1 RV per site / concrete pads min 15' wide. reddysunilp@Rmail.com
