David,
Thank you for your email. I know each person appreciates the information and perspective you have provided. As this is
an open application, the City Council and myself (as a potential tie breaking vote) are not able to comment on the
project outside of the public hearing. I am copying our City Clerk so your email and this response can be included into
the record.
Respectfully,
Mayor Robert Simison
City of Meridian

Dear Mayor Simison,
I wanted to take a moment to email you and express my very strong opposition to the Victory & Locust Grove R-15
rezoning.
My family lives in the Reflection Ridge subdivision and it has become extremely difficult for us to exit the subdivision
from either of the two entrances, onto either Victory or Locust Grove. This occurs at most hours of the day. We're also
increasingly boxed in with high density housing at Victory & Meridian Rd, and a new retirement community at Victory &
Eagle Rd.
Adding high density housing at Victory & Locust Grove creates a barrier on Victory from Meridian Rd, through Locust
Grove, and past Eagle Road, that anyone living south of Victory cannot easily traverse. In addition, Locust Grove is
already over it's capacity and consistently backed up.
I respectfully ask that you also oppose the Victory & Locust Grove rezoning in support of your constituents that live in
this area.
Thank you,
David P. Smith
