<br />Please Share Your Comment., Question or Concern: We are 1,7 year residents, of Roseville and we
<br />love our home and our neighborhood. Unfortunately, in the past few years,, the value of our
<br />homes, has been decreasing which is very disturbing and ups,etting.
<br />Now we understand that Yellow Dog Holdings,, a Pawn Shop, is trying once again to more into
<br />Roseville, next to Erik's, Bike Shop, and at the end of our street, no less!
<br />All of us, are vehemently OPPOSED to this group moving into Roseville, on Skillman Avenue. We
<br />would have attended the Public Hearing Notice except that our taxes, are scheduled to be done
<br />exactly at that same time.
<br />It is known that pawn s,hops, bring danger, theft and robbery. Some of the comments, are "bad
<br />elements, of the society will steal items, from Target and come to pawn them at the shop".
<br />Young families, with children are moving into our neighborhood, and it will be concerning to
<br />the parents, to let their children go biking around freely, with II-pods, cell phones, or
<br />expensive bikes,. Even at my age., I will not feel free to walk around the area where this
<br />pawn shop wants, to be
<br />Our next-door neighbors, those home was, valued at $400 K have been trying to sell their home
<br />since last Summer. The value has been brought down to $329K and still not sold. Would
<br />anyone want to more into a new neighborhood and buy a home with a pawn shop at the end of
<br />their street? We certainly would not !
<br />It is said that pawn s,hops, attract low income borrowers,. It is bad enough that we have some
<br />low income apartment housing, where, we understand from Police reports, at the August All-
<br />Night Out events,, there has been a lot of crime, but we need not encourage this type of
<br />Clientele . Pawn s,hops, are usually listed along with head shops, tattoo parlors,, all night
