Letter from Kirk & Cami Swanson 6-21-05
Dear Planning Commissioners:
We live at 6340 Teton Lane. We have received the notice on the request from
Jerry Story to receive a variance in order to allow a street to be placed
directly across the street from our home. We understand this request is to
allow his land to be subdivided into four lots. We strongly oppose this
request.
Our home currently has a great deal of traffic in front of it. All traffic
to the cul-de-sac on Teton Lane must pass our home to get in and out. A
great deal of traffic comes up Bretton Way to cross in front our home to get
to Aldrich or Ithilian. Adding a street with four new homes could add 8
cars or more to this mix.
Aside from increased traffic flow, a street will not be a pleasant view for
us. The area across the street from our home is very natural. Our children
watch the deer come out in the evening. It is peaceful. This was a big
part of why we chose this home. We don't feel like we live in a standard
development. We feel as if we live in a somewhat secluded area, full of
nature and beauty.
We respectfully ask that this request be denied. Please feel free to call
us, if needed.
Respectfull y,
Kirk & Cami Swanson
