Oppose Moceri development

Why so many apartments? Moceri is attempting to make as much money as possible off the limited land and lake front? I call that modified funneling by providing so many units access to the lake without having sufficient frontage. Moceri gets to price the units as having lakefront access and maximizes profits.
