This will be a strain on our infrastructure and an eye sore for our community. Rural people want to live in a rural area. If we wanted to live surrounded by housing developments, we’d move.

I do not believe we have the infrastructure to support moving in essentially another town (larger than Madison) of people.

I think this would put a strain on people living in the community already cost the taxes will go up on them not on the people that's move in and put strain on the fire department the sheriff department and the schools! I think it will put a hurting on the farmers close by to because they drive that vehicles on the road and love people won't pay attention to that

Tired of more development coming to our area, then wanting all the amenities built they left from where they came. Also sick of more taxes for services I do not receive from the county. They can built 100 NORMAL homes on this property the way it's zoned today (residential AG) and their neighbors would be satisfied since it matches their own zoning.

I live in this community and one of the reasons I moved here was so I could not live where there is a lot of traffic and people. This would also affect my commute to work.

I love our community as is.
The land and town is not equipped to handle this outrageous overgrowth.
We already see heavier traffic than it was just a few years ago.
Animals have been losing their homes left and right. they are running out of places to go.
We do not want it and do not need it.
HELP SAVE OUR COMMUNITY AND DEFEND THE WILDLIFE WHO CAN NOT SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES.

Too many homes in one area. Concern for safety, schools, roads, and emergency personnel.

This development does not met criteria in our zoning plan. And is a safety concern for our health, well being an environment.

Such a busy congested area already. And the traffic from this would not only take away well established long standing farm land, but it would add additional
Traffic concerns leading to increased accidents and danger
For the tractors, 4 wheelers, parents taking children to school and and residents that travel Ellisboro Rd. Daily!. Horrible idea

I want to see our small community honored and kept for future generations to enjoy the simplicity of it. My husband and I have lived in Ellisboro since 1972 the year we got married. I’m saying NO to this outrageous lifestyle change for all of our families in Ellisboro

Puts to much strain on emergency responders and increases county taxes for new schools and we have enough empty houses now.

The additional congestion alone will be a nightmare! What is all of this going to cost the taxpayers! My farm is on the other side of the creek. I am deeply concerned about the impact it will have with runoff etc. Please deny the rezoning !!!

We know we all need growth in our county but this isn’t growth, this is madness! DR Horton (and every other cookie cutter housing developer) does NOT care about our community or the negative impact it will cause. They only care about making stupid amounts of money and when they are done, they walk away from crowded roads, over crowded schools, major impacts on the emergency response services…They walk away from causing a major increase on our taxes to pay for their mess and all future issues.

There is no infastructure in place for this kind of rash development. I73 will soon require ramps to access roads into Ellisboro. There is not water or sewer here. The roads are small and busy especially during school entrance and exit times. The fire, police, and EMS are not equipped for huge numbers of homes. There are farms surrounding the land, making it extremely dangerous for tractors trying to reach their farms. Schools are not prepared for this kind of influx. Be responsible!

I have lived in the Oak Level Ch Rd, Ellisboro Rd. area my entire life until about 3 years ago and still own a home there. I want it to stay the way it is and not become any more congested on roads, schools, EMS, police, fire, etc.. There is a reason we live the country and don't want houses everywhere taking up farm lands, trees, etc.

We live 2 house's from the 4way stop @ Ellisboro/Sardis Ch. intersection. To date we have total lost 3 cars to rear end collisions, so many mail boxes that I can't keep count, and I can't even begin to tell how many cars have ran through our yard into surrounding fields. More traffic and we may never leave home again. Common sense just doesn't seem to be very common anymore.

We are losing all of our farm/ agricultural land. Bringing more homes into this area would be detrimental to our crops and and growth of wild life that majority of us hunt to live on.
I am opposed to the proposed development of over 1,000 new homes in our area. While I understand the need for growth, a development of this size would have a major impact on the people who already live here. I am concerned about increased traffic and congestion, overcrowding in our schools, added strain on to 911.
Because I live close.
