Attorney Klitenik claims the 157 units "could generate a half-million dollars in annual tax revenue for the city." That would require that each unit was assessed at over $1.1 million dollars. That sounds like a stretch in the current market.

I own and live year-round in a home on White St directly across from Peary Court and am very concerned. When I see that a developer involved with the failed condos over on Caroline St is involved in this project, along with two Miami developers, I feel pretty confident in saying that those folks are not going to care one iota about any negative impact that their development may have on the surrounding neighborhood. Homeowners along White St and in the Meadows adjacent to Peary Court need to get organized and start showing up at meetings. There is a planning board meeting on Thursday April 19 at 6pm with Peary Court on the agenda, I'm going to be there.

I told you Don Craig was a mistake.

We have heard this before. Truman Annex had an allotment of transient rental licenses for the proposed Ritz Carlton (only). Shipyard was the affordable housing negotiating tool. There was a sunset on transient licenses and they also had a five-year moratorium on selling/leasing. The transient aspect will fall by the wayside. The neighbors surrounding Peary Court have much to be concerned with. Note: I lived here at the time of the sale of Truman Annex to Pritnam Singh, entered the real estate profession shortly after and researched this issue for a letter to the editor in which I wrote. I confirmed my findings with the then, attorney for the city and planning department. captain curtis william erling white
