Anderson, Chair <br /> ii/iDane County Agriculture, Environment and <br /> Land Records Committee <br /> ""s's c/o Dane County Zoning and Land Records <br /> Room 116, City-County Building <br /> Madison, WI 53709 <br /> SUBJECT: ZONING PETITION NO. 3860, MENARD' S, INC. <br /> 8091 MINERAL POINT ROAD <br /> Dear Chairman Anderson: <br /> I am writing regarding the Menard' s rezoning request which will be <br /> before your Committee for public hearing tonight. I am opposed to the <br /> Menard's request for heavy commercial zoning at this location at this <br /> time. <br /> Neither the County nor the City have done any detailed planning for <br /> the impact of a development such as Menard's at this location. The <br /> traffic problems resulting from the development's access point, just <br /> West of the Beltline interchange on the South side of Mineral Point <br /> Road, will be all too apparent as soon as it is open for business. <br /> The long-range land use pattern for this quadrant, and probably the <br /> North side of Mineral Point Road, will be irrevocably established by <br /> approval of this first phase of Menard' s heavy commercial development. <br /> I recommend placing this request on file until after a detailed plan <br /> is prepared for this area, including careful consideration of traffic, <br /> land use, other property owner concerns, utility extensions and <br /> related issues. In 1986, area residents and owners worked with County <br /> and City officials on the best location for official mapping the <br /> Northerly extension of C.T.H. "M" to Pleasant View Road, and I urge <br /> that the same consideration be given for future development plans <br /> along Mineral Point Road. <br /> I appreciate the opportunity to submit these comments to you and hope <br /> that you can agree with my position on this matter. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> F. Jose h Sensenbrenner, Jr. <br /> Mayor <br /> GEA:jae1/11 <br /> City-County Building <br /> 210 Monona Avenue /.__/�—f <br /> Madison,Wisconsin 53710 <br /> 608 266 4611 <br />
