Listed below are some of our <br />neighborhood concerns: <br />1. Proposed Driveway entrance on 140th Street. - during the planning and approval of the first <br />phase of development Schwieters agreed all truck and vehicle entrances would only be off <br />Fenway Blvd. N. The size of the entrance needed for truck traffic would greatly increase the <br />noise factor. Having the entrance so close to the corner would pose a safety hazard for future <br />traffic. <br />2. Neighbors were told there would be a "Schwieters" Sherwood Forest to buffer the north <br />side of the development. This statement is greatly lacking, more has to be done. As a result of <br />poor landscaping, we are facing more light and sound pollution. <br />3. Light Pollution. We need less,not more <br />4. Noise Pollution. Factory and truck noise occur as early as 5:30am until 10:30pm and <br />later. <br />5. Open Garage Doors - Garage doors are constantly open at all hours, causing more noise, <br />more light and more vibration. During planning and approval of the first phase we were told <br />the doors would not be open unless receiving product. <br />6. Outside Storage - during the planning and approval of the first phase of development we <br />were told that there would not be outdoor storage on the North side of the building. This area <br />would be used to drop products, which would then be moved into the building. there has been <br />constant outdoor storage, <br />7. The addition of the proposed building will cause more noise to be directly funneled into the <br />residential area to the north. <br />8. We are trying to be good, understanding neighbors. We just ask that they work and run <br />their business like they live here. <br />9. Pictures will be sent in an additional email. <br />Thank you again for addressing our concerns, <br />Donald P and Chrisann Jones <br />5249 141st Street Circle North <br />Hugo, MN 55038
