That comer is. so. "<}J'Iged''''' al~'. There are <br />a!<Jt of ~ and bikers in tbatarea be<:';jU"" of the nearby parks,. the YMCA and the <br />existing: businesses. If ware traffic and mm-.e driveway!: are created an Lexillgtoo. and <br />County Road E the clumce of pedestrians being: hit by cars would be increased. <br /> <br />I have live.d in ArQen Hilts AU my tife. I have seen it grOow from mostly farm land aIKt <br />woods t-o a very crowded commercial area.

There is one on County <br />Road C and Snetling Ave, Arden Hitts is more of a unique City a one of its kind I <br />would like to see more small business to reflect this.
