Our position has always been 60 homes with 3 or
more acres of green space.

The community would welcome and embrace an R-20 subdivision on this
property. 58-to-60 homes would have far less impact on the quality
of life for an already congested area and infrastructure.

Ultimately, the decision on the Rezoning of Z-43 must be based on what serves and
benefits the greater good of the existing residents of the surrounding community and
what will have the least negative and irreversible
impact; and that is to maintain the R-20 zoning of this
property, keeping the number of homes at 58-to-60.

Please vote to DENY this Re-Zoning. Please keep this property R-20 so it is
compatible with the surrounding subdivisions and allow the community to welcome an R-20 development that will have far less negative impact on
their quality of life.
