We, the undersigned, are opposed to the rezoning of the property known as Range View Estates in Mead, Colorado, from RSF-1 to RSF-4. Our concerns are various, but include reduced property values, increased safety hazards that accompany significant increases in traffic, increase in noise and congestion, nighttime light pollution, overcrowding in schools, and stress on utilities. We strongly urge the major, trustees and planning commission to stand by the originally agreed upon compromise from 2008 when the property was rezoned from agricultural to residential, and keep the property zoned RSF-1.

Thank you.

R-1 zoning is fair and has previously been agreed upon. Enough R-4 zoning exists in Mead already. Better sites for R-4 exist in more compatible environment than next to larger lots in Single Tree, Mulligan Lake and Hunters Cove / Ridge.

I agree wholeheartedly with this Petition. We live on 109 Silo Ct., Mead, CO. 80542 - in Mulligan Lake Estates. The loss of view, the noise, the nighttime light pollution, the expense and the stress on our water, gas and other utilities, the addition of perhaps hundreds of children in the schools would be very oppressive to us. We just moved here in June and were told this was to be low-density housing, like ours, not high-density housing. We would not have bought this house if we had thought this would have changed. Please keep to the first plan. Thank you. Sincerely, Gayle Altobellis

That's a large increase in population. Can the infrastructure handle it?

Well, it looks like history does repeat itself! We've been through this rodeo once before a few years back with this particular piece of property. The last time the owner was residing in Boulder, of course, just a nice piece of investment property they wanted to get rid of and put a bunch of APARTMENTS AND SMALL HOMES ON. That would have fit in real nice with the 1-4 acre two story homes along County Rd. 7 (3rd St).Thankfully that idea got squelched. We live at 14614 County Rd 7 - for the past 19 years. We worked hard for what we have, paid it off and are now retired. I sit here some days watching a few cars now and then driving towards the Town of Mead - north - at maybe 90 miles an hour! I can't even guess what this street would be like if it were widened - up to our front fence, I'm sure. We've already had one drunk run off the road and into our yard a few years back. THE LEADERS OF THE TOWN OF MEAD NEED TO REALIZE IT IS A TOWN NOT A METROPOLIS! OVER 400 HOMES ON THAT LAND IS INSANE. ARE OUR LEADERS TOO????

I'm opposed to the RSF-4 high density housing. Please keep the R-1 zoning as was previously agreed upon.

R-1 zoning was agreed upon. We are definitely opposed to RSF-4 zoning.

Keep larger lots compatible with acreage lots in Mulligan Lake. Enough small R-4 lots exist already in Mead for a ten year build out.
