• <br /> 9. Since the proposed trail crosses 196th Ave. and 196th Ave. has the sidewalks it is not necessary for <br /> the trail to run behind my existing home or the homes of the new lots. The sidewalk on 196th Ave. <br /> connects with the sidewalk system on Evans and comes out very close to where the proposed trail <br /> would come out. <br /> 10. I do not want to see the public walking or kids running by nor hear the public talking, shouting, <br /> kids screaming, and so forth while trying to enjoy a dinner on my deck. <br /> 11. I have also talked with Darryl Thompson, who is involved with this project, and he is not in favor <br /> of this trail running north of 196th either. <br /> I have lived here since 1986 when I built the home. I have made many sacrifices already, including <br /> monetary'ones,in regard to the rezoning and clearing of the property that joins mine I cannot sit on <br /> my deck without the sounds of semi-trucks downshifting, the cars roaring by, I hear the loudspeakers <br /> at Menards lumber yard, (which I can hear with my doors and windows shut). I can smell the gas from <br /> the Amoco station,the bright lights from Menards and Amoco shine in, garbage blows onto my <br /> property from Menards and the highway. My property value was decreased by$3000 on an appraisal I <br /> had done on April 15,1998, (see enclosed),because of the zoning of the Hillside Crossings 4. Mature <br /> trees are falling down. even two feet in diameter,in the buffer area and are knocking down large trees <br /> on my property because of the clearing of the Hillside Crossings 4. I do not need to add to all this with <br /> the trail running across the back and people laughing, talking,kids running and screaming down the <br /> trail. <br /> • My pnvacy and daycare business would be greatly affected and in a detrimental way if a trail runs • <br /> across the back of my property. My house is too close to the property line. Please put yourself into <br /> my position. I welcome anyone from the city planning, the planning commission,the city council, or <br /> the developers to come out and see for yourself. <br /> Thank you for taking time to read this lengthy request. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Cheryl Beclfer <br /> 763441-3509 <br /> • <br />
