Subject:	To the ZBA re 2 variances requested by Plaza developers

I have reviewed carefully both requests for variances and find 
that neither meets the criteria for being granted. This is 
especially true for the impact on property value and for the good 
of the community. More student housing and a drive-in store 
would result in traffic congestion in an already congested area. 
This is clearly against the desire of the town to be one where 
walking is safe and pleasant.  I continue also to be concerned 
about safety (access for fire and police rescue), snow removal, 
management of garbage, and general maintenance in the 
overcrowded and unattractive setting proposed by the 
developers. Thank you for your attention.     Jennifer Lee, 18
