Stop the proposed zoning changes in

As citizens of Dardenne Prairie, we want you to know we support the current
zoning and community plan for Bainbridge subdivision. It is part of the
well-established city plan in which we are highly vested. Significant,

As citizens of Dardenne Prairie, we want you to know we support the current
zoning and community plan for Bainbridge subdivision. It is part of the
well-established city plan in which we are highly vested. Significant,
unplanned deviations affect all of Dardenne Prairie.
We oppose the proposed zoning changes that would allow the development of a
240-unit, high-density apartment complex in Bainbridge and urge you to vote
against these changes on our behalf. As citizens of Dardenne Prairie, we have
these concerns:
The city granted support for this project long before announcing any public
hearing.
The
first announced public hearing of the project was September 11, 2013. But
several months ago, the city sent letters to the US Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) stating:
“Dardenne Prairie is supportive of this project and would find it to be a
beneficial addition to the rental housing stock of our town.” –May 17, 2013
Residents of the city were sold a very different plan by the city and
developers.
Dardenne
Prairie’s city plan and zoning map as well as public marketing materials and
web pages of developers and builders have consistently promoted a different
policy and vision to citizens who invested in the community based on these
documents. It’s very concerning that the same city and developers are now
working together behind the scenes to change the terms that attracted us to
invest in Dardenne Prairie.
This sudden change to unplanned, high-density housing would have real impacts
on our town.
Even
with our rapid population growth, Dardenne Prairie is still a small town
without its own police force. This high-density housing plan proposes 240 new
rental properties and 478 parking spaces in a small area. This could more than
double the population of the Bainbridge subdivision, but it is also a big
change for all of Dardenne Prairie, which has not planned for it.

This will only decrease the value of our community and the overall value of living in the area. I and others will find another place to live.
KEEP DARDENNE PRAIRIE THE WAY IT IS. Not happy about this proposal at all it will destroy our property values.
We moved here for the low density and quiet streets. Building apartments like this ruins everything we worked for.
Listen to the residents who actually live in Bainbridge instead of trying to change the rules on us.
Traffic is already bad enough. Adding all those cars in one spot is a terrible idea for our roads.

Please stop the building of HUD housing in our neighborhood. It's not fair to the people that have invested their lives in their homes and communities.
