Re: Proposed East Ridge Estates Subdivision H-2016-0137
Dear Mayor DeWeerd and Members of City Council:
I am writing to express my concern and opposition to the lot sizes proposed in the East Ridge
Estates Subdivision on Lake Hazel Road. I have lived out in this rural community for 11 years and
am very concerned that the East Ridge Subdivision is not consistent with the look and feel of
the area. I understand that development is important, but this development is not appropriate
based on the existing homes surrounding it.
To protect the existing home owners and our community, I am respectfully requesting that you:
® Deny the developer's request for R-8 zoning, and
• Require the developer to offer % acre, % acre and lacre lots like Blackrock instead of the
currently proposed 6,000 and 7,000 square foot lots.
Approving this subdivision with such small lots will look entirely out of place with all the other
homes around it. It seems like it would make more sense to require lots that are the same size
or bigger than the lots in Blackrock and more equivalent to the lots on East side of the property.
Cramming 117 houses on that property doesn't make sense based on the % acre to 2 acre lots
with much nicer homes on either side of it.
Thank you for your consideration and I am hopeful that you will require significant changes to
lot sizes before you annrnve this n1nn
Sincerely,
111
