Country living...quiet community...peaceful settings in a pristine area
For these reasons and more, families specifically have chosen to move to Deer Run and Heritage Point. We are now faced with a large boat and RV storage and wash facility encroaching upon us. Residents are standing together and voicing our concern and disproval against the Port Side storage facility.
Negative impacts of approving Port Side Boat & RV Storage include:
Impact Issues
1)Changing the zone from RA-40 to CU-B1
(a) Zoning was designed to add buffers and transitions
(b) Devalue of homes
(c) Increased likelihood of security problems
(d) Future expansion plan & its impact
(e) Not an income producer for county; it only generates minimal property tax
(f) Surrounding businesses provide reasonable buffer zone at this time
2)Well & water consumption will impact the cone of depression of the water table and our wells
3)Impact the run-off will have on groundwater table
4)How will the wash off water / run-off be managed
5)Without proper sewer and given the size of the complex human waste is likely to occur
6)The quality of life impact this will have on our community
(a)Fencing nuisance / aesthetics
(b)Lighting nuisance / aesthetics
(c)Noise to adjacent homeowners
We respectfully request that the Chatham County Board of Commissioners deny Chatham Development Corporation\'s appication for conditional use B-1 district from the current zoning of RA-40.
Petitioners please add your street address in the address section below.
Reaching this level of community engagement confirms that our neighbors share a deep commitment to protecting the quiet character of Deer Run and Heritage Point. Seeing so many people focus on the long term health of our water supply and property values is truly heartening. This momentum shows that our concerns regarding the proposed zoning change are being taken seriously by those who live here.

We moved here for the peace and quiet. Do not let them ruin our neighborhood with a giant storage lot and constant noise!

Seriously? The property values will tank and we dont need more industrial eyesores right next to our homes. Keep it residential.

Ridiculous. My well is already low enough without them drawing everything out for a boat wash. Stop this mess.
