I strongly oppose the rezoning for tI.e following <br /> reasons: <br /> <br /> 1) !!.rtistown is a very small community with a unique charac- <br /> teristic of being rural and spacious. It is a rural neighbor- <br /> hood. This rural character should be kept. If the rezoning <br /> is approved, who is to deny any other person who applies for <br /> the same rezoning? <br /> 2) Another critical factor is the trafC.'.c on iiighway 11 <br /> through Kurtistown. Adding more homes will only add to the <br /> already hazardous situation. Rlmost every home on Highway 11 <br /> in Kurtistown has a driveway which connects directly to high- <br /> way 11. A detailed analysis should be .wade and improve::ients <br /> should be made so traffic can flow s-noothly and safely. <br /> 3) ",inacement by exception - This ~'s a pet peeve of mine. <br /> If this request is approved, .t is manaEement by exception. <br /> "anap-ement by exception is not good manal;ement. The area <br /> is already zoned for one acre lots. weave the zoning as it <br /> stands. <br /> In September, Councilman John Sa.ntang,elo and other hey <br /> -overnment officials involved with this project met with <br /> members of the community at my residence to discuss the subject <br /> request. Also attendinL were representatives from the '1ICDC. <br /> The result iS the attached petition. A. great number of the <br /> people who signed the petition are the "old timers" wl:o nor- <br /> mally are not very vocal. You can say they are the silent <br /> majority, but for this issue, they are not silent. <br /> },rnrn. NY. / .3 • O <br /> <br /> No. ~.NGo poO"_ <br /> Presented CAPV/JU <br /> M)V 1.8 _,1 <br />
