I have lived on Vale Ave. for the past 6 years with my husband and 2 children. <br />During this time I have seen more and more traffic on Meadowvale Road. I feel that by adding <br />additional Apartments to the area will only add to the problem. Why would you want to allow <br />these people to add additional apartments to the area when then can not keep the apartments <br />they own on the connecting property up. It is run down. It will only bring in more problems. The <br />city already allows a apartment complex on School Street to sit empty now for almost three <br />years. The schools are full now and the more apartments that you allow will not help the over <br />crowding in that area either. The community around that Zone change property is one of the <br />only areas in the city that does not have a park for the children that live there. My own children <br />have to be driven to a park to play. I won't let them walk across Meadowvale Road now because <br />of the traffic. My Husband and I feel that a better use of this land would be a playground for this <br />area. The city spends to much money on things that benefit landlords and their tenant that may <br />only live in the area for six months to a year if that and not on the people that have homes and <br />plan to raise their families here. <br /> <br />I am asking that you and the Planning Commission deny the Zone Change From a R3 to a R4 for <br />Tim and Crystal Thomsen. <br /> <br />Concerned Citizens <br />Steve and Sherrie Lorentz <br />1915 Vale Avenue <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />7/10/2006 <br />
