i simply cannot believe that the board would consider building this in either the Beechwood location or the Willow Conservancy. It’s called “Conservancy” for a reason! This looks more like a satirical proposition out of the ONION than a serious proposal. We must unite behind this effort.

Issues: vehicle noise and exhaust pollution, security lights 24/7, driveway entrance traffic safety for dog walkers and bikers, property values, destroying nature.
This is antithetical to our community’s design. Consider another option.

One reason I moved here was to walk the conservatory in our backyard.

We use this walking trail everyday and it’s one of the reasons we purchased our house on Willow Pond

My maiden name is Bowman. My father worked here from the beginning, trained at Hilton Head Plantation under Charles Frazier, who started all of Amelia Island Plantation. My parents house, Jim & Margaret Bowman, bought this house, which is now mine,in 1971. It was the 3rd house on the Plantation. There have been many changes since that time, but the one thing this resort has hung onto was NATURE, pure and simple! You lose that, and this place will end up like so many others,with a few palm trees!

I’d like the board to explain the necessity of this project. I also believe that preserving our natural areas is of paramount importance.

I do not support a new maintenance facility in either location or any facility that will require removal of any natural vegetation. Why not put it near the aicpa building our outside the gates in something already zoned for industrial use

A designated green space in a neighborhood should have some protection of the designation “green space”

my concerns: 1. process/transparency or lack there of - the board and committees seem to have been doing this project in secrecy 2. removal of green space or common space anywhere in AIP and the precedence it sets 3. any vote to remove common space should be done by the entire community NOT just the AIPCA Board

Work days for maintenance workers start early disturbing sleep. They are loud and dirty. It will be detrimental to the peace and natural setting of our lovely neighborhood.

This plan is going to decimate a designated arboretum! This property IS NOT zoned for this use! It seems that we are no longer concerned to preserve our special community.

We came to the Amelia Island Plantation in 2013 from Golfside South when the Golfside trees began to disappear. We read the documents creating the Plantation and were satisfied that the trees were protected, with the AIPCA serving as steward. Guess we were wrong.

Way too much clearing for construction has occurred in my neighborhood on the Plantation. The big parking lot across from the Oaks wiped out a continuous nesting area for herons by the golf stormwater pond. Expanding the golf course amenities, clearing for acess to utlilites (that was never needed before for the same utilities) and other death-by-a-thousand-cuts must stop. Paving everything defeats the purpose of our community. Trees are inconvenient but we chose them. Do not expand m-yard.

I totally agree with the residents who live in the neighborhood. They did not bargain for a maintenance shed being built in their residential neighborhood. Not to mention the destruction of the maritime forest, and animal habitats.

Plummeting property values, increased traffic, desecration of Audubon designated area, zoning change.
Save our canopy, the reason we own here.
