I oppose the development planned for:
Pine Street and west of Ten Mile Road (H-2020-0113)
Name: Foxcroft Subdivision AZ, CUP, PP
I feel the placement of the high density living, 3-story apartment complex disrupts all the existing homes in the just
north community, Mosher Farm. All residents on Acarrera and Britt Pl.
1. DECREASE in home values, huge obstruction and decrease privacy of current residents.
a. All homes on the south side of Acarrera have backyards that face where the proposed 3 story
apartments will be. This will significantly decrease home values, decrease privacy.
b. If the apartments went on the north west corner of the parcel, they would be facing the public park and
elementary school. Also giving a better view for the apartment residents. Furthermore, not peering into
existing single-family homes backyards and windows. I understand this is the section is zoned for higher
density, I don’t see why the cannot be moved to the West. There are far less obstructions and effected
parties.
2. Increasing foot traffic walking to the elementary school.
a. The residents of these apartments who attend Chaparral Elementary will walk through out street to get
to the back of the school. We have had a problem with kids from the apartment complex on the north
east corner of Ten Mile and Pine walking through our street to get to school and damaging property
(mailboxes, trash, and kicking over trash cans).
3. Increase noise due to high density living and apartment renters.
a. Apartments attract noisy residents and late-night calls to the police department for noise complaints. All
residents at Mosher Farms are used to a quiet neighborhood, if there is a lot of noise there will be many
complaints filed with the police department. In this time, we do not need to overwhelm the police with
calls like this.
4. I also oppose opening Pine Street up.
a. There is always heavy congestion on Black Cat and Pine. Lots of kids at play and increasing traffic with
216 apartments and 73 single family homes will cause huge problems and accidents.
Overall, I think building high density 3 story apartments are not needed in this location. This will greatly decrease our
homes value.

I vote NO.
