Mr. Craig Benedict - Planning Director Rosetta L. Glover <br /> 306 F. Revere Rd. P.O. Box 881 <br /> Hillsborough, N.C. 27278 Hillsborough, N.C. 27278 <br /> September 19, 1999 <br /> Dear Benedict: <br /> We own property directly across the road from this site. We have <br /> secured a building permit to build a home. Our property was acquired some <br /> twenty years ago for the expressed purpose of building our retirement home <br /> in a peaceful setting similar to other neighborhoods in this area. All of the <br /> residents in this immediate area are opposed to this rezoning. <br /> It would be very unfair to the home owners to allow this commercial <br /> business to come in and create a nuisance with excessive noise and <br /> excessive traffic along Saw Mill Road. This will create a traffic safety <br /> hazard for the children in this area, especially during the school hours. <br /> It is little doubt that the loud noise created by this business will be-out <br /> of harmony with the neighborhood. The noise level will surely be above the <br /> maximum noise level now in affect by the zoning department for this area. <br /> New evidence has surfaced that lead us to believe that a denial or to <br /> reopen the joint hearing per article 20.7.2 of the zoning ordinance would be <br /> appropriate. <br /> Many citizens in this area work at night and would need to sleep <br /> during the day. This noise operation will create a serious problem for these <br /> citizens and others who purchased homes in this area expecting peace and <br /> quietness. <br /> We are requesting your assistance in helping to keep our <br /> neighborhood a safe and peaceful place for children to play and adults to <br /> live in harmony with the surroundings. <br /> Thanks so very much for your thoughtfulness and consideration. <br /> Sincerely yours, <br /> (%& �-PA, <br /> Rosetta L.
