Subject:Opinion on the 40-unit cohousing proposal off Wagonwheel

To whom it may concern,
I am a resident of Fieldstone Dr. who, together with my wife, invested
in our home in 1986. I am strongly opposed to the proposed co-housing
proposal, and especially to the concept of rezoning. People like us
stretch/have stretched their budgets to live in a neighborhood that has
appropriate zoning for family residences. Why do we even have zoning
if we constantly rezone? While this may benefit the proposing party, it
is not a benefit to the long-term homeowners in the near vicinity, who
chose to live here trusting that the zoning would not be changed. I feel
especially sorry for my neighbors down the street, who live directly
opposite the proposed development. It simply isn't fair to them or to
any of the other families who live in this area to change the way the
neighborhood is used years after their investments were made. I have
nothing against the idea of developing a co-housing residence, just not
in an established family neighborhood.
