January 13, 1987 <br /> Agricultural Land Environment <br /> and Records Committee <br /> 210 Monona Avenue <br /> Room 116 <br /> Madison, WI 53703 <br /> RE: Agenda Item #3856 - Land to be Rezoned Fronting on County <br /> Highway M in the Town of Westport, Dane County, Wisconsin <br /> Ladies and Gentlemen: <br /> I recently received a notice for rezoning land (Petition #3856) covering <br /> land across from 5348 County Trunk Highway M, Section 21, Town of <br /> Westport, Dane County, Wisconsin comprising of 16 acres more or less. <br /> I am opposed to this rezoning for the following reasons: <br /> 1. I did not receive proper notice of this proposed rezoning from the <br /> Town of Westport. I understand that there were two previous <br /> meetings, one of which I was able to have a representative attend, <br /> and from that meeting I understand that the Town of Westport has <br /> requested that the matter come back to it for reconsideration. I <br /> further understand that the town board has asked that your <br /> committee take no action at this time. <br /> 2. In spite of attempting to contact the developer and having left <br /> word with two attorneys working with him on this matter, I have <br /> been unable to find out from the developer exactly what he plans <br /> to do with the property and how he plans to handle access and traffic. <br /> 3. I feel that rezoning to C-1 is far too broad a zoning designation <br /> for the Town of Westport and certainly my neighbor, Dr. Marquis <br /> and myself, who are directly across the road from this development, <br /> to feel comfortable. I understand that this zoning is broad enough <br /> to allow a junkyard. <br />
