IN INFO A MAT! ON N' Lynne Thomason ON LY 5301 Edgewood Drive Mounds View, MN 55112 IP March 19, 1997 Pam Sheldon Community Development Department City of Mounds View 2401 Highway 10 Mounds View, MN 55112 Dear Ms. Sheldon: I will be attending the Planning Commission meeting on March 19, 1997 to express my total opposition to any proposed rezoning of the O'Neil property to accommodate 16-screen movie theater and three office buildings. I wished also to write this letter in case I didn't get a chance at this meeting to voice my concerns. Living at the corner of County Road H-2 and Edgewood Drive, I will be one on the residents most adversely affected by this development. At present time the noise from ever increasing traffic in this area IIIis already reaching the intolerable range. This development belongs elsewhere, not in at residential area already too impacted by present noise pollution. This development also would remove the last aesthetic view the residents of Edgewood Drive have. Presently we look eastward over a noisy and visually unattractive Robert's nightclub to see an equally unattractive Fina station and looking to the northeast we can see a congested noisy Highway 10 and Donatally's incinerator and dumpsters. The woods at the north are the only thing in the neighborhood that is not an eye or ear sore and now someone wants to concrete over that too? I am also in agreement with the other residents in their concern over increasing crime rates and lower property values as these certainly will occur. Therefore in closing please listen to the people,place more value on us than potential tax revenue and do not allow this development to proceed. Thank you for your thoughtful consideration. Sincerely, :96797/ �,�,.r - ." -ri4n Lynne-Thomason cc: City Council Members 0Mayor McCarthy Cary.9"..il,srArla�, cAr, - lit/r-u
