The zoning commission has formally denied the application for the zone change at these properties. This outcome reflects the persistent efforts of those who sought to preserve the character of our neighborhood. We should remain attentive to future development proposals to ensure our community concerns continue to be respected.
As a resident of East Hampton, Connecticut, in regard to the application of Atlantis Marketing for a change from R-2 to C zone for property located at 157 Main St, 1 Colchester Ave and 5 Colchester Ave, I hereby protest the approval of such a zone change.
The feedback from neighbors remains focused on how this zone change would alter the daily character of our streets. I am currently gathering documents to prepare for the upcoming town proceedings regarding these properties.

Reaching this steady level of support reflects a shared desire to preserve the character of our neighborhood. It is clear that many people feel deeply connected to the future of our town lands. I am taking the time to carefully review your comments as I prepare for our upcoming meeting.

My husband and I live within 500 feet of the proposed construction. I wholly and entirely oppose this zone change from residential to commercial. This is a neighborhood not a strip mall. Such commercial development is entirely inappropriate in that location. It would be detrimental to our home values, the safety and cleanliness of our community, and a ghostly eye sore on our historic and picturesque Main Street.

The zoning regulations are in place for a reason and should not be changed! A gas station recently opened on Main street. Why is another oversized station (less than a quarter mile away) in a residential area needed? This will NOT benefit our town of East Hampton. Town officials, please support us; the people who depend on you as our representatives.

I oppose the proposed zone change. We cannot allow out of town developers (Atlantis Management Group) to stain our historic Main Street with a huge, unnecessary... gas station.

Commercial incursion into East Hampton's residential zones has got to stop! Zoning regulations exist to protect property owners and allow them "quiet enjoyment" of their investments. Installing a 4,500 mega-mart at the corner of historic Main Street, within the Belltown National Register Historic District, is anathema to East Hampton's zoning regulations as well as our Plan of Conservation and Development. Commissioners of Planning and Zoning....please do your duty and vote "NO!"
