The public hearing for this project will start tonight at 6:00 pm if you’d like to come and provide testimony. You can certainly request similar sized lots as those to the south be provided adjacent to your lot.

Sincerely, Sonya -----Original Message----- From: bill pro <bilpro@msn.com> Sent: Monday, February 4, 2019 11:51 PM To: Sonya Allen <sallen@meridiancity.org> Subject: Warrick subdivision Dear Sonya We do not want 4,400 sq ft lots? R-8 zoning behind our home. High density is not the answer for a wonderful place such as Meridian. Please don’t ruin the character of our neighborhood. We recently purchased a home last September on S. Twilight Mist Way in the Whitebark neighborhood using our life’s savings. Our property abuts the proposed Warrwick subdivision on the north side of E. Scrubpine. We wish to express our objection to the proposed stepped up R8 multi-family zoning in this area. The original plans for lower density R4 housing was a major decision in our purchase in Whitebark on the eastside of Twilight Mist and south of East Scrubpine. We were looking forward to living in a quiet neighborhood, amongst other single family homes in character with the rest of the Whitebark community. To now change plans by stepping up zoning to accommodate higher density construction of row houses, duplexes, and multiple family dwellings raises many concerns about public safety, overcrowding, and undermining property values. We do not look forward to looking at a row of houses out our backyard and dealing with traffic short-cutting through our neighborhood to get to Amity. The width of our lot is narrow as it is. The proposed lots behind our home would have three boundary lines within our lot. This is wrong. Please bring it back to the R-4 it was mandated at when we purchased our home. We purchased our home based on the R4 zoning and hope that the Council will live up to that plan. Thank you from the owners on Twilight Mist. 2 We are only one of two owners on the east side of Twilight Mist north of Scrubpine. As you can see in proposal they are squeezing 14 lots in north of Scrubpine. Have no problem with the spacing like south of scrubpine. Please stop this. We spent $465,000 cash (life savings) based on the existing zoning for the area in question at time of purchase. If this goes through it will be hard to sell it. We would not want to live there.
