Hi, I am a homeowner in Legends 2, 1758 Midfield St. I am writing to object to the rezoning of 20 acres on the
corner of Bridger Dr. and Story mill to be mixed commercial/apartments. This land should follow suite with
Legends and be single family residential. The proposed accesses onto maiden spirit and Northview are a huge
increase in traffic and safety concerns for our neighborhood with tons of children riding bikes freely, enjoying the
neighborhood. Trying to make this part of the city into a downtown type high rise apartment/mixed commercial is
not what makes sense for this section of town. Everything around is single family lots, minus a small frontage lot on
story mill/Bridger which is the ice house, and Zekes gas station. But all of these are one story, in a central retail
zone. If this passes we could see 500 possible new residences with all the traffic spilling onto Northview St which is
a small residential street and not equipped for that. New traffic light would be necessary for one, but if you ever
pass through here, the prevalence of kids on bikes would tell you that this is not the place for a large apartment
complex, or retail center.
All of my neighbors are baffled why this would even be considered...
Please reject this project for anything but single family homes. Drive by the site and think for yourself what is
meant for this land before deciding, at least... Thank you for you time!
