I strongly oppose the rezoning to LPN. Traffic congestion on Bannerman Road is already a problem. I have to turn left onto Tekesta from Bannerman everyday at 5:30 pm. A very unsafe and almost impossible task. More residential single family and multi residential development will severely impact our already filled to capacity schools. I have great concern about my home’s value decreasing. Keep the current zoning of LP in place.

I do not think this is an example of responsible growth and development based on its impact to surrounding communities regrding home values, traffic congestion, overcrowed schools and the environment. Evidence has already shown that the initial clearing of the land has affected the quality of the lakes in the SummerBrooke community.

You simply do not let a developer start such a project without making sure that the infrastructure (roads...) and school occupancy has been taking care of and without consulting the direct neighborhood.
This is totally unacceptable as the schools are already packed and the traffic horrible enough.

Request the County Commissioners do not approve the proposed rezoning of this property. The current zoning of this property for up to two homes per acre is appropriate considering the surrounding neighborhoods. Changing the zoning to allow up to eight homes per acre will be harmful to the surrounding area. As a resident of the adjoining SummerBrooke subdivision I am concerned with the impact on our schools, roads and especially the lakes. The runoff from
the clearing of the land has already negatively impacted our chain of lakes and a high density subdivision will increase the negative impact. Please do not approve the requested rezoning.

This zoning is ridiculous. The houses in the area will lose their value because of the increased traffic and the decrease in schools performance. Without adding schools and roads the idea does not make any sense.

This is a ridiculous idea in light of the very limited road infrastructure existing in this area, and the fact that Summerbrooke and Ox Bottom will experience a great deal more cut-through traffic than they already have. The zoning of this property is reasonable and fair as it is now. The owners purchased the land under those zoning restrictions and should not now get a windfall at the expense of the established neighborhoods in the area.

I moved here a year and a half ago to be in an area that cares about their trees and lakes and the ecological balance of wildlife and the environment. It does not make sense to keep pushing nature back. Tallahassee is a gem and needs to stay that way. Land development needs to be considered responsibly. This area should not be rezoned for denser housing because not only would it negatively impact the environment but also the traffic and our schools.

Note the Planning Committee’ unanimous rejection of further zoning changes. High traffic, nearby business vacancies, school zones all compel review of proposed changes.

I don't feel enough consideration has been given to more traffic, crowded roads, overcrowding of schools. I would like to see our Commission addressing these issues first (better roads, discussion of a new school) rather than approving a plan before anything is done.

Save what makes Tallahassee great. The developers don't need the rebates [corporate welfare] more than the citizens need to keep their hard earned money.

A high density home/commercial development at Bannerman and Bull Headley would be completely at odds with what is essentially a country landscape. It smacks of a get-rich scheme with a blind nod from county commissioners who may think development for development's sake is a good thing. It's not. Let's be smart about the development at this location and make it consistent with the surrounding area.
