Please join me in opposing the proposed development along the bank of Rieder Cove of 18 small lots and cookie cutter homes. The proposed development in no way reflects the character of the homes surrounding the cove or Loch Lloyd itself and will forever change the whole look and feel of the cove and the valley in a negative way. The developer has been telling anyone with concerns or reminders of promises not to develop this area that there is nothing we can do to stop this, it is a done deal. Work on the property zoned Residential Open Space started months ago prior to any public meeting or approval and I believe in part to give the impression that it was already approved. If we are not able to be heard and have an impact on this development, then all Residential Open Space is at risk of being developed and the character of what we all love about living here will be gone.

The Zoning Commission approved this based strictly on the fact that it meets the designated zoning requirements and that was their only choice. It does not mean that it fits within Loch Lloyd. The original master plan circa 1990 from Harry Lloyd as distributed by the developer does fit within the character of the surrounding homes and lot sizes, the current proposal does not in any way. The last step in this is the vote from the Village of Loch Lloyd Board of Trustee's, lets please let them know how we feel about preserving our green space and Rieder Cove by signing this petition.
