This letter is written by three households in close proximity to the proposed Oasis nightclub. We have some
major concerns about the business going in, the amount of traffic it will create, and the environment it will
create.
New information has been discovered regarding the type of nightclub this is and the atmosphere it promotes.
This will be a EDM establishment, which if you look that up, is a type of music, much like the rock and roll I grew
up with, but it is more about the emotional stimulant. In addition, they advertise they promote PLUR, which at
first glance seems pretty tame — Peace, Love, Unity, Respect. Sounds fine, right? But what you don't know is
that it is really is about underground outdoor trance music party. Now, I don't know about you, but that doesn't
sound like a very good environment for my neighborhood, much less Meridian city. The Oasis is established in
other cities, and they are having major problems due to the clientele this establishment encourages.
Is the Meridian Police force willing to take on the task of patrolling our neighborhoods, and the extra traffic on
Ustick Road AND the area the nightclub sits in? I have heard they aren't willing to do this. We have more than
enough traffic on Ustick Road now, then factor in all those cars full of inebriated drivers and people. We don't
need that.
The owner agreed to reduce the capacity to 400 patrons, knowing full well he just needs your approval, then
he will allow as many patrons as he can get in the door. Who is going to monitor it? The police aren't.
Parking has not been addressed to our satisfaction. Where are all the extra cars going to park once the 125
parking spaces are full? The adjoining neighborhood? Along Ustick Road? Again, who is going to monitor that?
We respectfully demand this type of business be rejected in this mostly residential community. There are
plenty of building sites available which aren't surrounded by homes and families. And is there anyone who
doesn't believe this will be one of the most police siren -noisy areas of Meridian? 1 don't think you would like it
to be in your neighborhood.
Sincerely,
