Subject: Proposed Infill Development at 1003 McMath
Historic District Commissioners:
Please deny the Infill House request for 1003 McMath. It does not blend with the historic character of the
MacArthur Park Historic District.
Allowing such construction makes a mockery of City Code Sec. 23-119, the relevant portion of which
follows:
"[T]he commission shall ... take no action hereunder except for the purpose of preventing the construction ... of
buildings..., in the district, which are deemed by the commission to be obviously incongruous with the historic
aspects of the District."

Subject: FW: See below - there is criteria that we have to meet before we can sign off. Reducing the
number of buildings is not a problem but the building coverage and the number of dwelling
units maybe.
