If you are opposed to the development of 51 acres at Pleasant Dr/S Mineral Springs/Holder Rd and are not able to the meeting on Tuesday, Sept 26, please sign the petition. Those attending the meeting will present the signatures so the developer knows that there are more opposed than just those attending the meeting.
Message from developer:
I am contacting you to invite you to an informational meeting concerning a re-zoning in your neighborhood. This development is proposing to rezone 51 acres of land near the intersection of Pleasant Dr, S. Mineral Springs & Holder Rd. The meeting will be held at 6:30pm on Tuesday, Sept. 26th at Bethesda Baptist Church. During the meeting I will provide information about the proposed residential development. This development will modify the current Zoning Map to allow residential development. I can be contacted at 919-490-4990 or [email protected]. Sincerely, Timothy Sivers, President, Horvath Associates

The developer is underestimating how many of us actually live here. I am busy preparing the data for our next move.

How about investing money in the roads and utilities in the area and not add more developments to an area that is already so congested it takes a half hour to go 3 miles! How can the Durham County Planning and Development office allow this?
The amount of development in this neighborhood is getting absurd. It seems like quick profit is in the driver's seat while thoughtful growth has been tied up, gagged, and thrown in the trunk. My wife and I are considering moving.
Traffic is terrible. It can take 30 minutes to traverse 2 miles. There are no easily accessible stores or restaurants in this area, why should we pack more homes out here without having better roads and shopping first?
Very opposed to this development. The roads are not able to handle the traffic as it is. Terribly congested, making it unsafe for the residents, especially the children walking in the area.
I am opposed to further development in this area. We have a dangerous traffic issue in this area as is. Due to other development in this general area, wildlife such as fox, snakes etc are being forced into neighborhood setting. New development is only going to increase these issues and add more.
Opposed! This development is estimated to add another 100-150 cars into an already congested area. Like the previous comments, focus on fixing the roads first.
Traffic congestion, no sidewalks, no streetlights, no real plan for sewer systems.

I oppose this because we need to widen the roads before we even think about putting another subdivision. It takes 15+ minutes to go 3 miles to even get to 70 to then make my way to work. It's a nightmare and we don't need to add fuel to the fire.
