It will disrupt all the beauty of the area and make traffic and congestion miserable

Too much growth with no infrastructure to support 5000 more residents

We love North Ogden because of smallness. Please don't allow that to be changed by this unneeded and unwanted development. It sounds like the only people that will benefit are the developers. Please listen to the voice of the people the view for you.

Opposed to all things government at this point. We the people are not being represented by government officials.

There isn’t the space or infrastructure for such a large expansion. Plenty of development space and land elsewhere that won’t hurt our beautiful environment along the bench.

The mountain is already overloaded above. The residents below are going to be unfairly burdened with paying to build the infrastructure needed to support the new homes. Imagine the mayhem when the mountain needs to be evacuated and the reality is a disaster upon disaster. People are worth more than the money the contractors will make. There are already issues with water on the mountain and adding more people will compound the problems.

The city has already experienced serious growth over the last 10-15 years and the proposed development will place too much stress on the infrastructure and residents.

We will lose so much of what we love about our community if this development comes in.

I walked these hills with my dogs and have been for the last 10 years. The wildlife that lives up here deserves their place too. Among other reasons, we have a shortage on water. We do not want to pay extra money for the taxes that will go up because they need to widen roads and do things that we're not signing up for.

I've lived here for over 40 years, and I'm tired of my taxes going up to support the expanded infrastructure for each of these developments. True most developers pay for pipes etc. in their own development, but stack 2 or 3 of these developments together and then the city has to dig up old-smaller lines to accommodate the overall expansion and I, a long time resident pay for the now "needed improvements". The developer doesn't see/care about what else the "CITY" has to do for their project.

Too much development

We currently do not have the infrastructure in place to accommodate this many new residents. Our traffic is already out of control and our taxes are are already increasing. This may cause additional increases. We moved to a nice quite suburban community that is now going away.

We don’t have the water to take care of all these new houses. The roads will be way busy and cause more problems. The schools are already crowded. They don’t need any more students. The Mountain should be left alone. It has enough houses on it already. I think you need to take care of the people that already live in North Ogden and the problems we have already without adding any more people or problems to the mix. Also, these new houses are not a good tax base. Please do not pass this.

North Ogden is not Salt Lake or Ogden: we geographically cannot sustain tons of new development, especially with water shortages going on.

Don't want high density housing.

There are not enough access roads and infrastructure needed to support the additional traffic that high density housing would bring. Oulimited water supply needed

The 500 acre Altura development property is privately owned, but nonetheless, is a sensitive habitat and rapidly disappearing environment. Conversely, it is a "prime" and desirable location for "low risk" and "high return" development. These parameters hopefully will generate thoughtful and thorough approach to the NOCC and Planning Commission.
