>> i'm barbara hefernon. >> president breed: please speak directly at the microphone. >> i have lived in the neighborhood for 30 years. i will read an excerpt from a letter. i will read a section of the letter that they did send to the planning board. "when we as a neighborhood group gathered to meet the architect and developer, we spoke in one voice and raised our specific request. stay within the footprint of the original home. we went on to tell our own stories about how we did improvements to our own homes. as a group of neighbors, we communicate with each other and support each other. we've made a lot of improvements, but we've always stayed in contact with our neighbors in order to let them know what is going on and how they respond to that. we're not anti-remodel. we're against careless, dangerous, unsightly development. we raised our specific concerns that the open space be respected and that the historic cox december head home not be put in jeopardy by excessive excavation." thank you. >> president breed: thank you for your comments. next speaker, please? >> i'm dan hefernon.
