HomeMy WebLinkAboutPackets - Council Packets (72) To Whom It May Concern
We are Rust and Carrie Gilchrist.Our home directly overlooks the property in
question.We are in support of this rezoning.While we of course would prefer the
land stay vacant,we also want our taxes to stay reasonable so we understand that to
do that,we must grow the tax base and welcome some reasonable development,As
a contractor and former realtor,we know that Oro Valley has very few future
development opportunities.We attended the neighborhood meeting years ago in
which an apartment complex was proposed on the same site.This design is by no
means an apartment complex.Based on the developer design,it seems to be a fairly
good transition between us and the office space and La Canada Road. I appreciate
the multiple revisions that have been made as the developer has tried to
accommodate residential concerns. As long as 2 story residential homes will not be
in our view line,and there will be a natural,landscaped buffer between our larger
lots and the project,we fully support the project.

As residents on East Limewood, my family selected this rural neighborhood to live in due to the rural lifestyle
and large lots within minutes of commercial development, retail stores, grocery stores, gas stations and other
local services. In being on rural land in the middle of development, I recognize that we are actually more the
abnormal than the normal in the area. The benefit of our location is being near development rather than far out
in Catalina and beyond. We already know that just south of us we are going to have commercial development.
We also know that the property only a couple lots away from our eastern lot line will also have some form of
office or commercial development. Our only concern is what that transition to that higher intensity looks
like. We are very pleased that the developer chose single-family residential homes as the buffer between our
equestrian neighborhood and that office use. This seems to be a reasonable approach that also doesn't
negatively impact those future residents that will be right next to the office buildings. The layout seems to
preserve the existing natural elements like the wash and I believe the design will create a nice neighborhood in
keeping with the integrity of the Oro Valley community. I encourage you to support this infill development that
has compromised on what type and kind of development can go in this unique spot. I do not believe this
proposed development will have any negative impact on our home or family,but rather can set an example for
future growth. I encourage you to share the same opinion and also support this smart growth of our community
and approve this plan.
