My main concern is for the protection of the <br />"Channel" that lies within and adjacent to their property, <br /> <br />This waterfilled "Channel" is a unique feature that deserves special consideration. The <br />"Channel" is home to a variety of fish and wildlife, and a stop over/feeding area for other <br />wildlife, For instance, a family of otter and musk rat live adjacent to the "Channel". Great <br />Blue Heron catch fish here. Snapping turtles, painted turtles and other amphibians also <br />make there home in the "Channel", as do many water fowl species. <br /> <br />I have enclosed photos showing the "Channel". The top photo shows where the "Channel" <br />meets Lake Peltier. The middle photo is close to where the "Channel' starts to turn south- <br />ward The bottom photo shows a view from the south end looking towards the north. <br /> <br />I, also, believe that development near the "Channel" would diminish the water quality of <br />Lake Peltier. This lake has a very poor water quality at present, additional development <br />would only further diminish the water quality of the Lake. <br /> <br />In conclusion, I do not want to see the C-1 (conservation) zoning designation changed or <br />modified. This C-l zoning would act as a buffer and would help protect the fish and <br />wildlife of the "Channel"; and the water quality of Lake Peltier. <br /> <br />!r~el~;; . ! <br />\v~L~L( ;f;\;'v,*-r:/ ~ <br /> <br />Dean Luxenburg, <br /> <br />
