Opposition to Rezoning Request PB25-0018[email body]
To the Jefferson County Planning and Zoning Commission,
My name is [NAME] and I live at [ADDRESS], near the proposed development at Highway 109 and W. I am writing to formally state my opposition to rezoning request PB25-0018 for the proposed 56-unit duplex/multifamily project by Benton Homebuilders.
This development will negatively impact our community due to:
• School overcrowding at Geggie Elementary, LaSalle Middle, and Eureka High, which does not have space to absorb additional students
• Traffic and safety issues on Highway 109 and W, which are already congested and hazardous
• Density that is incompatible with surrounding neighborhoods
• Infrastructure strain on emergency services, stormwater systems, and utilities
• Environmental and runoff concerns, especially given recent drainage problems in the area
For these reasons, I respectfully request that the commission deny rezoning request PB25-0018.
Please include this email as part of the official record.
Sincerely,
[NAME, PHONE NUMBER]
--------------------------------
The residents of Windswept Farms and Mirasol communities oppose the rezoning of the potential 56-unit development at the intersection of Highway 109 and W, citing the following concerns:
- School Volume: Geggie Elementary school volume will be oversaturated, with no additional room to accommodate class size expansions. Additionally, transportation via bus is already overcrowded, requiring some buses to fill three students to a seat.
- Intersection Traffic: The four-way light at Highway 109 and W is already highly congested and growing with the introduction of the Polo Fields subdivision further down FF. Accidents are frequent, and with the addition of 56 new homes in the small area, they will continue to increase.
- Property Value Decreases: With rising taxes in the area, a decrease in property value will cause challenges current property owners, especially those who may choose to/need to move in the future.
The zoning meeting will take place on Dec. 11. PLEASE attend to voice your NO if able, or call.

My home is in the Rockwood School District resides along the stretch of road where this development is being proposed. The traffic at 109/ W & FF has already become increasingly difficult. Geggie Elementary School is already at capacity. This just seems like a horrible idea with the already growing population of homes that have been built in recent years.
I am a local first responder and Eureka resident pre Windswept Farms. The amount of traffic along 109 is at its max capacity as is. This is a terrible location for adding more housing.
The town’s infrastructure is crumbling and can not handle an additional subdivision. With the Allenton bridge closure, traffic is a nightmare. residence are forced to take the road between 2 railroad tracks to get onto 44W. Geggie can not handle added enrollment. Also, we continue to grow but can’t keep business and jobs in this small town.
This will overwhelm the roads, schools and fire/police/EMS. Every promise made to get the Polo Field high density build through was broken. We have been burned and I am highly against this proposal!
Not to mention: it’s in a flood plain and across from Kirkwood materials so you’ll be getting covered dust loud noises and rocks all the time
Another housing development on this corner is an absolutely terrible idea.
HWY 109 can't handle more traffic.

I'm not apposed to our communities growth. However, the infrastructure structure has to grow with it and for all of the reasons listed, until that occurs I'm in opposition to this added housing.
