EXHIBIT I Eric Luchini From: Minh Lee Sent Sunday,July 02,2017 11:57 AM To: Eric Luchini Subject: Regarding the Nobles family(3552 Yellowstone Court)home expansion Hi Eric, My name is Minh Lee and I live . I am writing to you to express my concerns and oppositions to the Nobles family wanting to expand their house up to 8-room house(with potential of 9 rooms). I will be out of town on the hearing date on 7/12 and therefore I would like to share my concerns with you. I strongly believe that any home owner should has the right to do what they want to their house as long as it is in accordance with the laws,codes,regulations and won't negatively impact the neighbors and community. It is exactly the latter part that I am concern with.I am not opposing the renovation and improving the quality of living for the Nobles family,but I strongly oppose to the size of their renovation and the safely hazard it posts to the neighborhood and my three kids,all under 11 years old. I live directly across from the Nobles. Below are some of my top concerns: • Crimes,drugs and arrests -over the last two years,there have been at least over 100 police visits to their house and resulted in many arrests. Some of the arrests are family members living in the house and some are renters and friends. I checked out the police reports,some are domestic violence,drugs related,possession of robbery tools. It is very concerning to me and our community. • Questionable renters-there are at least two renters currently living on the property. MANY renters have been the subject of the police visits and arrests. 1 am veru concerned with the type of characters that come through their house. • Kids safety playing outside-as mentioned above, I can't have my 3 kids(all under II yrs old)playing outside with the neighbors' kids without adult supervision given the arrest history,drug trafficking,smoking on drive ways,attempted violence • Up to 9-room house on a small lot -This just does not fit any home in our community or any Pleasanton community for that matter for that size lot. All the houses my our community are 3-4 rooms. Allowing this will set the wrong precedence and open the flood gate for similar requests to come and change the community of Pleasanton that we all love. • Increase cars and traffic- The Nobles current have a total of 5 cars(van,truck and SUVs). Three park on the street and two on the driveway. Allowing the 7,8 or 9 rooms expansion will add more cars park on the street from renters,more traffic and potential hazard for kids playing outside. • Where's the need for extra rooms when they have rooms to rent? This just does not add up to me.
