Jesse Gibson is absolutely opposed to this project for all reasons already listed. In addition, the existing streets in our neighborhood cannot accommodate expected traffic ---- nor can Howard Road..

My primary concern is that this venue will serve alcohol to drivers that will be navigating one of the most dangerous roads in Waxahachie.

Hello Crystal Cove, My name is Crystal Taylor, I own the subject property with my husband, Reginald Coulsell. There is some incorrect information being communicated regarding our plans for our land. For example, there is not and has never been zoning requests for a metal barndominium. We are also not requesting a change of the base zoning to commercial, it will remain SF-1. I encourage anyone considering signing this petition to review the actual zoning changes request listed on our dropbox link (below) and contact us with any questions or concerns. We have tried to be open about our plans and we did send an advance copy to an HOA member back on August 11th, a month before we submitted to the city. We also informed our most immediate neighbors and requested their feedback well in advance. We want to be good neighbors and maintain positive relationships with the community. This is the presentation we plan to show the town on Tuesday night. Slide 11 details the zoning change requests we are making. https://www.dropbox.com/s/unb5z6for2itqtn/PandZ_Presentation_11-5-2017_v8.pptx?dl=0 We'd be delighted to talk to any and all of you who have questions about our plans. Please feel free to contact me to discuss (321) 508-1946 or [email protected]

I oppose the variances as requested for the property located North of Hunter Pass on Howard Road. I do not support the project for the following reasons: 1. This will increase traffic throughout the neighborhood. 2. The noise level will increase throughout the neighborhood. 3. The amount of acreage available is not enough for all of their endeavors. 4. The proposed zoning changes will have a negative affect on property values.

Absolutely against this change in zoning proposal. Concerned about lowering property values, noise, and traffic

In addition to the reasons above, I oppose the increased traffic along Howard Road and lack of sufficient parking for vehicles.

I have been informed that most of the downtown merchants have signed in favor of this petition. I am personally appalled by their actions. Much of their business gravitates from people living in Crystal Cove. If the landowner of said plot of land is granted this final permit, the city must be prepared to accept that it has devalued multimillion dollar homes. In that respect, we will fight to have our taxes greatly lowered. The revenue loss to the city will never be made up by a property the will be given an agricultural exemption by keeping the full count of seven horses on the property. I say no to this building plan as do many.

As a home owner on a high-value waterfront lot in Crystal Cove, I and my spouse strongly oppose this request to change to zoning of this property for the reasons laid-out in the petition.

I appose the proposed zoning changes that will adversely affect Crystal Cove Estates and it's homeowners.

We oppose this zoning and its proposed project for the reasons stated in the letter, additionally, Crystal Cove Estates, our homes are located in an area that we would NOT encourage tourism, additional traffic or noise polution. We strongly believe that the proposed area will not support the intended goals of their project.

Hello Crystal Cove, My name is Crystal Taylor, I own the subject property with my husband, Reginald. I realize there are a lot of people who are wondering what our plans are and have concerns. We have tried to be open about our plans and we did send an advance copy to a HOA member back on August 11th, a month before we submitted to the city. This is the presentation we plan to show the town on Tuesday night. Slide 11 details the zoning change requests we are making. https://www.dropbox.com/s/unb5z6for2itqtn/PandZ_Presentation_11-5-2017_v8.pptx?dl=0 We'd be delighted to talk to any and all of you who have questions about our plans.

Hey Julie - I'm one of the owners of the property in question. We only knew one resident of Crystal Cove and we did disclose to them our plans shortly after we bought the property. We also found out that Kevin Strength lived in Crystal Cove and we emailed him a draft copy of our plan on August 11th, a full month before we submitted to the city. We thought this was a good way to let your subdivision know about our plans. We'd love to go over our plans with everyone in Crystal Cove, We in no way have tried to hide what we are doing and we want very much to have great relationships with our neighbors. I think there has been a lot of miscommunication as to what it is we are trying to do. Please feel free to contact me to discuss (321) 508-1946 or [email protected]

I'm concerned that there was NO communication with the neighborhood about this prior to its presentation to the board. It's possible that my opposition could be overcome, but the non-inclusion of stakeholders has left me suspicious. (And, if I had written this, I would have spelled EFFECT correctly...)
