r��Op X11 <br /> BOARD OF SUPERVISORS <br /> off. <br /> . 1°tCounty of Dane <br /> • ' <br /> ROOM 118, CITY-COUNTY BUILDING <br /> 4a �' 210 MARTIN LUTHER KING,JR. BOULEVARD <br /> Aulaus <br /> h4\\scoP► _` MADISON,WISCONSIN 53701 <br /> 1994 608/266-5758 <br /> Dear Colleagues/Members of Zoning & Natural Resources <br /> It has come to my attention that an application for change of zoning has been filed by County <br /> Side Apartments to change the zoning from the RH-1 to R-4 which will bring the complex in <br /> compliance with the county's zoning standards. My constituents whose properties border this <br /> complex have expressed their concerns pertaining to the proposed development associated <br /> with this application. <br /> The proposed development includes the building of additional garages and parking stalls,in <br /> addition, to an added drive way along the perimeter of four lots occupied by single family <br /> homes. Although, the property owners are not in opposition to the owner's right for the - <br /> development and enhancement of the property,they have been very sympathetic and in many <br /> cases tolerant to the issues concerning renters and property owners. The additional parking <br /> stalls and garages within the cul-de-sac and the proposed drive way along the homeowner's <br /> properties should be deferred. <br /> The added drive way serves no purpose other than to increase the amount of traffic onto <br /> Coventry Trail(cul-de-sac) leading to Grandview Blvd and the elimination of a greenspace <br /> buffer between the homes and the complex. This added traffic increases the likely hood of <br /> auto and pedestrian accidents due to the presence of small children within this residential <br /> neighborhood. I have visited this area on several occasions only to see the cul de sac parking <br /> area used as a hang out for teens and a dumping ground for debris. I would therefore propose <br /> a compromise that the developer eliminate the proposed drive behind the residential <br /> properties and instead extend the drive from the frontage road to the proposed garages and <br /> parking stalls. (see attachment) <br /> This will allow for the complex to afford the residents accessibility to and from the complex, <br /> in addition, to allowing the property owners the right to enjoy their privacy and property <br /> without added disturbances or nuisances. <br /> If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me. In advance,Thank <br /> you for your consideration in this matter. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> K • . onds <br /> Supervisor, District 23 <br /> cc: R.Rose,Town of Madison Public Works Dept. <br />
