�!/ � � E Sent from Tom Passanisi to Virginia Bobadilla August 5, 2004 Virginia: Here is a response to your e-mail. I have highlighted the changes in red. Thanks Tom, Thank you for the report and meeting notice. As you can imagine, development of the property will drastically change our neighborhood and brings us many concerns. One major concem is the limited time available for county residents to respond to the building proposal. A week's notice limits our efforts to effectively respond to the report. The notice states the Council will consider the sale. Does that mean a decision will be made that night prior to the environmental report and "Precise Plan"? T'he item before the City Council is just whether the City should sell the land or not. Actual project appro��als for the site will be considered at another time. If the City decides to sell the property, then a development (which still needs a lot more refinement) cannot be approved until the Precise Plan and the accompanying environmental documents are prepared for the project (possibly an Environmental Impact Report). The re��iew and discussion of those planning documents and the actual development proposal wrill require numerous public hearings and discussion before the Planning Commission and City Council. No project can be huilt until tTrose heuring.r and apprv��als occrn•. �'ou and your neighbors will be notified of those meerings and will have the opportunity to comment. It might be 8 months or so before those documents are prepared and rer•iewed. With such short norice, the Council will not hear concerns from a good number of people that this development effects. I do have some concems and questions that you might be able to answer prior to the Council Meeting on Monday. The surveyor's report was to establish the property boundaries, Are they in agreement with the county boundaries? Is the fence the property line? Property Boundaries shown on the survey were not meant to (re)establish property lines around the tank site. The map showed approximate (read: "not 100% field verified") property lines which were drawn according to recorded maps/legal descriptions. These lines will be verified by an actual field boundary sut�-ey during the designiapproval phases of the project by the developer. Once done, they will shov�� and (re)establish correct property lines. Our roads are mentioned. I don't lrnow if you are aware of the condition of these roads. County officials do not consider these streets as finished roads. The road itself is not deep enough. The present surface is an overlay put down by the county. These roads are narrow and will present a major problem with large construction vehicles using them to build 8 homes. Construction vehicles will damage these roads. Are there plans to deal with damage to the roads that building 8 homes will cause? That issue will be examined upon fin�lization of the project and preparation of the environmental documents including a trafiic study. The conceptual map shows one entry to the development. Please pinpoint the location of that entry. Hillcrest Drive will become a major thoroughfare for construcrion as well as the completed development. Hillcrest Drive will bear the entire burden of construction vehicles, worker's cars, _.. � ..__._. __ , _
