66 <br />Michael Harve <br />From: Kathy Hopwood [kathyhopwood{a~embargmail.com] <br />Sent Wednesday, August Ofi, 2008 10:40 AM _ <br />To: Michael Harvey <br />Subject: Terry Rd school <br />Dear Mr Harvey, <br />I am absolutely opposed to the Montessori School applying to change the zoning on Terry Road. I moved to the <br />Terry Rd area 12 years ago. <br />All my life I had been looking for paradise and found it on my 10 little acres of land right off Terry Rd in <br />Orange County. I built a house, tend a garden and plan to live the rest of my life here. I am living the dream that <br />I have pursued my entire life: a life of peace and quiet in the country. <br />I am greatly concerned that a school being located in an agricultural farm area would impact the way of life I <br />have searched for. When I am gardening or sitting outside, I can always tell when it is the time of day that <br />people are returning home from work during the week. There is an increase in traffic noise on the road I live off <br />of, It is just noticeable new. Any increase in traffic with parents taking children to and from school will increase <br />the air and noise pollution. <br />In addition it is my belief; based on the application and supporting material, that the applicant lies not met the <br />criteria for approval of their SUP application. <br />I choose to move and build here because I would not have heaz or breath in the daily noise and air pollution <br />from cars. I could have stayed living in downtown Hillsborough if I wanted that experience in my life. Please <br />consider people like me who have built a life in an area that is peaceful and harmonious and the incredible <br />change that a school with hundreds of cars driving twice a day will create. If this happens I fee] that my life will <br />be altered forever. <br />Sincerely, <br />Kathy Hopwood <br />
