I am a resident and the HOA President of the Porters Pointe community adjacent to the subject parcel seeking rezoning. I left you a voicemail earlier today in support of the rezoning request. I will be unable to attend today's meeting but would have spoken in support of the request. Glen Lee and David Sneeden reached out to our community early on to ensure any concerns we may have would be addressed. I have met with them and spoken with them on several occasions and I am convinced they will address our potential concerns (water runoff and potential lighting impacts). I am in full support of the rezoning request as I believe it will be developed responsibly and considerate of our concerns. Please feel free to enter this email into the record in support of the request. Sincerely, Al Kennedy 8219 Brays Drive Wilmington NC 28411 910.622.0049 Sent from my iPhone
