Dear Mr. Wilhelmsor�:
Thank you for rneetin;; with the residents af Stone Brid�;e Oaks, aur townhome and�atio
home community, anc: �resenting them with your plans�i�r the above mentioned property
a#Glade and HVI�Y 3tif;�.
As the developer and ii�7me builder for Stone Iiridge Oatc:;o, we were able to walk the
praper�y in quesrion, �tt�d assess your development plans<�nd haw they would potentially
irnpact our cammunit;>; As we discussed,there are S sin�,�le famiIy patio home tots in
Stone Bridge Oaks wl�i�„h are directly adjacent to your p��aperty, a�id are most impacted
by the mul#ifamily co��-;.rnunity yau a.re praposing to deve.:lop, After careful considerativn
of your plans, and uncl��rstanding that the propert.y is cun�ently zoned for commercial
development,we are i��favc�r af the multifamity commu,aity you are proposing,with the
foilowing changes we �iave asked you to consider:
• Remove the ve;i.icutar parkin�area that is plannec(within the landscape buffer
area adjacent t:; our property(this will aileviate c�r headiights from shining
toward our 5 s:::�`�gle fanniIy patio hames}
� Retain as many �xistin�trees within the]andscapt; buffer area as possibte,and
leave the trees [I�their current state{ie.no prunin:�), so that as much greenery as
pt�ssi6le is sav+;ii to buffer our homes from the apa.rtrnent buiidings
� Within the lan<I,�cape area adjacent fo our property�, please plant additional canopy
trees in open a�°f::as as necessary to enhance the"�!zeen buffer"from our homes to
the apartment�ti;u�dings
• Please mave tha;street tamp that is pianned to be c��i the west side of your privat�
drive, and wit�:�;rj the landscape buffer area,with�l��e purpose ofminimizir�g any
possibie exces,: :.ight from shining on our 5 adjac�;�it hornes
With the above cl�ange,�,we believe that your multifamilS: �eveiopment can become a
real asset to the overa4l ��rea,and create a nice buffer from HWY 3b0 to aur Stane Bridge
