The increased stress it will force on the water supply, other utilities and general public services will demand an increase in homeowner taxes to adequately provide such services. There is already a traffic issue during peak times at the intersection of Tangerine and 1st on the south side, and more noticeable on the north side of Tangerine on Rancho Vistoso. There is also a high vacancy rate of commercial property in the area, noticeably directly across the street and in the mall directly east of this land. Another factor is that the newer developments just south of this property where single-family houses have been constructed are hardly 10' apart and not congruent with other earlier developments notably in Rancho Vistoso. This development would place a number of new residents going to the nearby Safeway shopping center to the north of Tangerine & Rancho Vistoso Blvd. There is already a traffic hazard when resident come out of that shopping center to the west and are forced to make a U-turn while avoiding cars travelling rapidly going south on Rancho Vistoso. Additionally this proposal does nothing to improve the quality of the neighborhood for civil enjoyment for children, and will require school buses to be travelling through this residential area as schools open. Your consideration in this matter is appreciated. I bought a home here in Rancho Vistoso in the Reflections community to avoid greater congestion and a quieter of life style. Regards, Mr. Phillips
