Hello Chris,
Thank you for reach out. I know Foxcroft has another hearing tonight. Could you provide me with the link for the zoom
meeting. I can’t seem to find it online.
I want to make sure that all the neighbors emails that have been sent in recently are taken into account in this meeting, i
think we’re overlooked last meeting. The overall consensus of most of the email is asking them to switch the single
family units to back up to the current single family housing. That way the apartments can back up to the school and
public park and not effect any existing houses.
Thank you again,
Marissa

Hello,
I have been following this development and the approval process. However I am a little confused if this
is still open for public comments or what step in the process they are currently in. Could you provide me
some insight. Also if it isn’t too late to sign up to speak for tomorrow’s hearing. My backyard faces
where the proposed 3 story apartments will be.
Thank you in advance for your help,
Marissa

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.
3
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.
