There’s a four and a 1/2 acre property at 6470 Highway N that has been purchased. The new owners have requested to rezone to C-3 ( Commercial ) which could create further developments, permitting much more invasion to the residence. The new owners first intended to open a small coffee shop in the existing house, now the owners intend to put a restaurant/bar on the property with operating hours are 6 AM to 11 PM, 7 days a week. This will create additional congestion on Highway N, noise pollution and lack of privacy for our residence. This restaurant will include not only existing structures but a very large parking lot, backing on to Ashford Knoll subdivision. They also want to install a retention pond/lake. Plus tall, parking lot lighting.
This goes before the Board of Aldermen on Wednesday, September 19, 2018, at 7PM in the Board Room, City Hall, 5490 Fifth Street, in Cottleville, Missouri. Hope to see you there!

I have been staring at the site maps for hours and the sheer scale of this parking lot proposal is honestly nightmare fuel for anyone living in Ashford Knoll. The office phone lines are busy with people telling me they can already hear the traffic noise in their heads just thinking about those operating hours which is just wild to me. I am digging through the city zoning codes now to see if there is any loophole we might have missed in this mess.

I really never thought this many people would actually jump on board to keep our neighborhood quiet and safe from those bright parking lot lights. It feels like the momentum is finally building up and I am just so glad people are catching onto how ridiculous this restaurant plan is for that quiet little spot.

My home backs to this proposed “restaurant and bar”. I’m not comfortable with this being in my backyard. There is so much available land near downtown Cottleville which seems like a much location vs a residential area.
We live across the street on Long Wheat .We already Get noise and traffic from Page extension .This is a bad idea.A coffee shop would be great A restaurant with shorter hours ok But a bar that brings noise and drinking No thanks .We have children here .Too close for comfort Teens will be teens
Rezoning commercial in a residential area is not much different than NO zoning. Looks like bait and switch.
This is a residential area! We do NOT need the noise & light pollution, or further congestion of Hwy N (especially when it comes to the intersection at K)!!
Being one of the homeowners directly behind this property, I am great opposed to this rezoning and restaurant request. Outside entertainment, late night openings, and serving alcohol so close to the backyard where my autistic daughter plays on the playset is exactly why we left our last house and purchased here. Would you want this in your backyard?
Zoning commission tabled the issue till the Oct. 1 meeting. To have your say, please attend.
Totally unnecessary! Move on ...

We live at the entry to Spring Orchard Subdivision. We have not been notified of this proposed rezoning in spite of the fact we can see the property from our home. We STRONGLY oppose this rezoning.
