Re: Zoning Application:

3601 Decatur St.

Nail Salon

To Whom It May Concern:

Please accept this letter as a letter of support from the Mayfair Civic Association (“MCA”) to the Holmesburg Civic Association’s request to deny the application of the above for a nail salon. There are already an abundance of nail salons in these two neighborhoods. Also, City Council passed an overlay a few years back restricting nail salons from the Frankford Avenue Corridor. While this business would not be directly on the Avenue, it would remain close enough and therefore should be contained therein such overlay. Therefore, the MCA supports the decision of the Holmesburg Civic Association and its neighbors to deny such request.

Feel free to contact me with any questions that you may have.

Sincerely,
