Comments
I am not completely against development of this area but would expect it to be more in line with the
adjacent neighborhood or provide a transitional buffer between low density family housing and high
density residential and commercial space. I see this proposal taking little consideration of existing
neighborhood to maximize developer profits.
If zoned this way, it would allow up to four story apartment and commercial buildings. This would
completely change the look, view and feel of this area. It will impact traffic, mountain views, population
density, wildlife habitat, night skies, and noise levels. Once land is annexed to the city and re-zoned,
developers are free to pursue the maximum allowable commercial and residential densities and building
heights and the minimum allowable park designations.
A few reasons I oppose this proposed rezoning:
- Zoning is not consistent with neighborhood
- This is not family housing, but luxury second home condos and commercial space
- The Stockyards has already been preliminarily approved for mixed used commercial and the Cannery
District is only one mile away. How much mixed used commercial do we need in this area?
- Open space for this below minimum standards, and designed solely for drainage Commercial access is
through residential streets. Developer plans on doing cash in leu.
- This will make the entrance to Bridger canyon multi-story commercial and multi-story residential
- Increased traffic in an area with no plans for an over/underpass of the railroad tracks
- Proposed development plan appears to divert traffic into quiet, family streets (One street dead ends into
an alley
- No consideration for the natural wildlife corridor between the story hills and Bridger Creek.
