Hickory Hill is almost like a road through a park. Bicyclists, joggers, walkers, all love using Hickory Hill for its peacefulness and beauty. To add 120 homes or 250 cars onto that road would be like taking away a park.

I'm very disappointed that this housing development is even being considered. We live on North Gibbons and love our larger lots and the country feel and we will be very disappointed to see Argyle change.

Here are the reasons we adamantly oppose concept plan: – We are very concerned if the zoning changes are approved, the result will devalue and depreciate the marketability of our community of rural homesteads surrounding "Belmont Ridge.” – If approved, this will drastically diminish the “country life” atmosphere Argyle maintains, which is why so many of the residents moved here in the first place! – The land being proposed for zoning change, is a densely wooded natural habitat that is filled with critters we’ve experienced, including bobcats and coyotes. To completely demolish the woods as seen in the concept plan, will result in the killing and maiming, to the displacing and scattering of the many animals that are living peacefully and undisturbed. We understand there will be developments on the acreage, but we are rather hoping for seeing it become multi-acre “horse” property estates, in which sections of the woods will be able to remain throughout. – The proposed number of houses will add unnecessary congestion to Hickory Hill and surrounding areas. We also are aware that the rest of the property for sale, includes the remaining ~60 acres that will most like be a continuation of the planned development. And will also most likely continue on onto the adjoining, highly wooded properties, also currently for sale. We do not want to see a “mini Lantana” community in our back yards! – If approved, this will rob, betray, and deprive all current and future homeowners, of our peaceful and quiet, all natural, highly wooded and gorgeous farm atmosphere community, that we all so value and appreciate. – This concept plan undermines the lifestyle so many of us share, and the very reason Argyle is so highly esteemed, sought after, and loved! Please, we implore the town of Argyle, to reject any zoning changes we have entrusted Argyle to maintain.

Please do not change the current zoning to allow smaller lots. The master plan was developed for a reason.

The reason we moved to Argyle is because of the larger lots and the character the town has by having small to medium acreage, beautiful trees, horses, and ponds. If this rezoning passes, the character of Argyle will change. The natural beauty up and down Hickory Hill will change. The schools will become crowded, and the roads will be overpopulated. Please consider the current residents of Argyle and keep this property zoned as it currently is for 2.5 acre lots and not smaller. Thank you.

Too many houses have been approved in a short period of time. School district will not be able to maintain quality of education with this fast growth

No way. Stick to the restrictions already set in place. These low/zero lot lines can go elsewhere and buyers can already choose from one of the crammed subdivisions that we unfortunately already have.

2.5 acres is the way it was set up, that is the way it should stay.
