Rob Richmond, our neighbor, advised us not to sign the Petition when this process began last year. He is well-qualified. See the full body of his letter below for additional advice.

I represented Lakewood on the Dallas Plan Commission for 6 years (92-98’) and am very familiar with the process for creating, amending or abolishing zoning categories. I also served as the chair of the Board of Adjustment for 7 years (05-12’), under three different mayors, and saw first-hand the horror of
homeowners trying to deal with the deadly dual bureaucracies of Planning & Urban Design (zoning) and Development Services (Building Inspection).
