Deny Proposal for R4 apartment complex near Heritage Park

Mary Johnsmeyer

Our family has lived in both The Reserve at Heritage and Nottingham at Heritage Park neighborhoods since 2003. Part of the appeal of living in this area are the open spaces. We’ve seen a lot of growth in the area during the past 23 years, and the current infrastructure barely supports the amount of vehicles and foot traffic between the green space and Heritage Park as it currently stands. Adding an apartment complex to 159th and Pflumm will exacerbate the already dangerous & busy intersection.

Robert Lucas

Too many to list

Pradeep Keshavamurthy

Oppose this proposed development plan.

Anna Nelson

To preserve the green space and due to significant concerns about infrastructure, especially due to Pflumm being only two lanes without shoulders.

Larry Peterson

Traffic and safety

Stacey Stitt

The area has grown so much and there is already over population in this corner and it’s still growing. It feels like extremely poor planning and greediness. Enough already.

Dawn Bainum Schrock

As a resident in the area this project will negatively impact the traffic, property values, and immediately more than double the community size.

Brooklyn Gormly

Our neighborhoods and roads cannot hold this additional traffic.

Eric Wheeler

Creates significant risk associated with increased traffic and architecture density issues. And will take away from qualities of the surrounding neighborhoods.

Megan Endres

This is an already very congested area for traffic and would not be suitable for the safety of all.

Darryl Guzman

Open space is important for us to keep. Additionally, I do not want an apartment complex nearby adding to traffic congestion.

Sally Eddington

I oppose the proposed R4 apartment complex near Heritage Park because I don’t think a high-density development is a good fit for this location. I’m concerned about the extra traffic and congestion, the strain on local infrastructure, safety, and the effect on the character of the surrounding neighborhoods and Heritage Park. I support responsible growth, but I think development here should fit in with the community rather than overwhelm it.

Susan Guzman

Our area has a lot of traffic as it is. I don’t want apartments to add to it. Also, the beautiful open spaces are disappearing which is so sad to see.

Denise Todd

Our home values are some of lowest in the Blue Valley School District. High occupancy apartments, literally in our backyard, drive property values down. Pflumm and 159th St would not be able to handle this huge influx in traffic. Apartment tentant turnover can also weaken a community. Renters don’t typically take the level of pride and care for the community as owners. Why the incessant push to develop every vacant plot of land? It’s ok to let some land remain green space.

Rachel Maier

City infrastructure is inadequate to support high volume apartment housing at this particular location. Traffic is already dense and dangerous at 159th and Pflumm and the streets struggle to accommodate the current amount of traffic. Also, we are concerned that it will negatively affect existing home values in neighboring subdivisions and introduce safety concerns for the neighborhood.

Hope Cortes

Too much traffic at an already congested area and no reason to get that green space such a cemented identity!

Jason Caul

Not appropriate for the location proposed

Brandi Missel Harms

Traffic, safety, infrastructure, maintaining neighborhood feel

Hannah Grape

I am concerned with the influx of students on our school system.
