(ju (" • <br /> 5/ - I .>cicat <br /> L a ( t <br /> / <br /> Dane County Zoning b Resource Committee <br /> I am writing this letter to oppose Mark Smithback's zoning request as a <br /> concerned neighbor and a member of the Town of YOrk zoning committee. His <br /> request was turned down at the zoning committee hearing because the woods <br /> are located too far from the road. If Mark gets to build way back off the road <br /> we will have many more requests and once having set a precedence will have <br /> no way to turn them down. The committee also did not like the driveway going <br /> across farm land. If these woods were located next to the road there would <br /> be no opposition. <br /> This request is not in the interest of protecting Dane County's farm land <br /> and trying to control housing going up all over without a plan. <br /> 94Zegi"./ <br /> Helen Rebel <br /> This letter is in regards to the zoning request pursued by Mr. <br /> Smithback in the York Township. I am a member of the York <br /> Township Zoning Committee. Our committee had already unanimously <br /> turned down this zoning request on two occasions. -In my mind , I <br /> believe the presence of the lawyer at the board meeting <br /> intimidated the Town Board into overriding our committee' s <br /> decision. If Mr. Smithback is emotionally attached to the land as <br /> stated , the existing family homestead already resides on the <br /> property in a more suitable location with better access to the <br /> existing road network. Today there are at least eleven other <br /> wooded areas within a one mile radius of the location Mr. <br /> Smithback has chosen to build on. Are we to assume that <br /> precedence has been set and now all wooded areas in York Township <br /> are eligible for development? <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Dwal c ernecker <br /> York Township Zoning Member <br />
