Bldg. <br /> Detroit, MI 48202 <br /> tb <br /> °-rt..-'2P' -- <br /> May 16, 1985. <br /> • • <br /> Re: Rezoning of Land on South Side of old N.C. #10 and East <br /> of Existing Chandler Concrete Co. (4.34 Acres) . <br /> Dear Sirs: - <br /> In th- matter referred above I would like to make the following <br /> comments: <br /> 1. I expect to retire on 1JULY1985 and build and live in Orange <br /> County on the land just east of Lawerence Road and north of <br /> Old N.C. #10 on a part (Tract 3) of the homestead passed to me <br /> • by my parents, Dr. & Mrs. J. B. Rhine who bought the land in <br /> 1952. The land 1 own is very close to the 4.34 acres now in <br /> question and owned by Chandler Concrete Co. <br /> 2. On 5 July 1984, I listed with Apple Creek Realty, represented <br /> by Mr. James Rae Freeland, Tract . #4 of "Portion of J.B. Rhine <br /> Estate" of 19.78 ac. which was sold to James J. Freeland and <br /> wife, Maxine H. Freeland (PIN 9873.:86-4833) who later apparently <br /> sold the 4.34 acres in question to Chandler Concrete Co. <br /> 3. At the time I listed the property for sale on 5 July 84, 1 spe- <br /> cifically questioned the zoning and use of the land in the future <br /> and I was advised that it would have to continue as residential . <br /> 1 accepted the answer and perhaps unwisely did not propose to <br /> add any restrictions or covenants in the selling agreement to <br /> insure continued residential use (if such restrictions are <br /> • legal) . <br /> • 4. My interest in the future use of Tract 4, especially the part <br /> between the railroad and old N.C. #10 was and is based on the <br /> following: <br /> • A. Tract #2 of J. B. Rhine Estate, is directly across (North <br /> side) N.C. #10, contains a beautiful . lbke built by my <br /> father and many fine trees. This tract new belongs to my <br /> sister, Dr. Sally Rhine Feather, and I would certainly not <br /> want to see her land value or beauty harmed by industrial <br /> development. <br /> B. Tract #1 of J. B. Rhine Estate is also directly across (on <br /> north side of) N.C. #10, and contains among other things, <br /> the old farm house bought by my parents in 1952 (their home <br /> for over 30 years) and many beautiful trees. This tract now <br /> belongs to and is the home of (since 1952) my sister, Ms. <br /> Betsy E. Rhine. I certainly would not want to see Betsy's <br /> •• <br />
