Deter Outlot A Brentwood Addition <br /> Land Use Amendment and Rezoning Request <br />Barret! L Colombo <br /> Dear Mayor Duitsman and Council Members: <br />James. L. Wiant <br /> I represent a number of residents residing in the <br />Gerald W. Von KOrti Brentwood Addition in Elk River. As you are aware, <br />James Degiovanni Dennis Anderson is currently requesting the rezoning of <br /> Outlot A in the Brentwood Addition from RC-1 (Single <br />~nG.HObbs Family Residential) to PUD (Plan Unit Development) for <br /> the purpose of commercially developing the area. My <br />David J. Meyers ~' clients are concerned about the detrimental effect this <br /> rezoning change to commercial development may have on the <br />John J.Meuers surrounding area including the Brentwood Addition. <br />Roger C. Justin After reviewing the available material and thoroughly <br />John J. Babcock discussing the matter with my clients, it appears there <br /> is strong evidence in the record that this rezoning <br />Jill A. Pinkert change would indeed be detrimental to the residents in <br /> the surrounding area and to the residents of Elk River in <br />Igor s. Lenzne~ general. <br />Gary R.Lesrico The Elk River Planning Commission has previously denied <br />Chad T.Jerdee the request to rezone this area citing a number of <br /> reasons relating to the inappropriateness of this area <br /> for commercial development. Generally, the planning <br /> commission in denying the matter determined that the <br />Orrin V. Rinke <br />o,oo~n~a, ro osed rezonin would allow a <br />P P g potentially intensive <br /> commercial activity to be located immediately adjacent to <br /> existing residential areas. Because of the lack of <br /> natural barriers of physical separation and the <br />+Apmitled,c Pracice Law incompatibility of commercial or highway business with <br />"'""'a"~ the surrounding low density residential area, the <br />ZRed,Pro~,~,~w,;~, planning commission seriously questioned rezoning outlot <br />Gertifiedby the <br />re S,are Bar ASSOCianon <br />AtlmittBG M Practice faw <br />M Wisconsin <br />
