I honestly cannot believe I am typing this but the planning commission just denied the condo project and everything is staying as originally planned. My hands are shaking a bit honestly because these past few months have been such a blur of meetings and worrying about traffic on Ray Williams …

Many of the residents in Williams Park are concerned about a proposed project of over 670 condos (dwelling units) being presented to the city of Spring Hill's Planning Commission for approval in the front section of the neighborhood off Ray Williams Drive. Since Ray Williams is one of the main access roads to the homes in Williams Park, many residents are concerned about the increase in traffic that this proposed community will add to the Williams Park neighborhood as this could potential add over 1,300 more residents and cars to our neighborhood.

It is the opinion of the City Planning staff and many of the neighbors that this project is not the best use for this land and goes against the initial zoning for Cottages and Villas to be built on this property. However, we're not assured that this project will not be approved. So, we're asking for as many residents in the area surrounding Williams Park to sign this petition which will be presented at the next planning commission meeting on March 6th.

Thank you for taking the time to sign this petition and for your support!

I really thought this might just fizzle out when I started it but looking at the momentum now is actually wild. It feels like the city planning office has to listen to us because there are just too many people joining in for them to ignore the traffic nightmare coming to Ray Williams Drive.

I bought here 4 years ago and loved how small the community was. Now there are new homes and new families but the community is still relatively small. Traffic has increased and the addition of "condo's" will increase the traffic here. condo's are just another fancy name for apartments....I say no!

This is a horrible idea. if builder's are so concerned about maximizing their profits, they should raise the initial cost of the homes they are building. do not punish people who bought homes with the promise of villas & homes behind them and then magically switch to condos. Unscrupulous.

The current zoning for cottages and villas is sufficient for the infrastructure in this neighborhood. High density condos will not only overload the current infrastructure but will devalue existing property.

The impact of this many residential units in an already-congested area cannot be underestimated. The area around Port Royal Road and Commonwealth cannot sustain this level of development! Please do not approve this! It will affect the quality of life for everyone who already purchased property and invested in this community. Thank you for your time.

I oppose building condos in the property off of Ray Williams as the traffic will create a significant impact to the Williams Park subdivision residents and the overall congestion of the Port Royal Rd intersection with Duplex Rd and the area in general.

Our backyard backs up to this property. I moved out of my last house because they built 3 story apartments behind me. I purchased this lot because nobody was behind me. Spring Hill needs to stop doing this in people's backyards.

This idea is ridiculous! Adding condos and rezoning an area in our neighborhood as commercial will only add to the traffic issues we already have!

Spring Hill does NOT need these Condo's at all!!!
