We urge the City <br />of Roseville to carefully consider the negative impacts of this development on Langton Lake <br />Park and its sU1Tounding ti~ighbDrhoods before this development is approved. ...1\.11 <br />environmental problems of this development should be discussed before any permission is <br />given to the developer. <br /> <br />Parkland has an underlying value to the community which in this case may cause irreversible <br />damage to the park and adjacent neighbors. <br /> <br />Roseville has many beautiful parks and all efforts should be made to protect them. <br />We understand the financial problems many local communities are facing, but the long term <br />view should be taken when development is considered. If the quality of life in Roseville <br />should decline because greenspace is not protected, the City loses in the long run. <br /> <br />We urge the Council to carefully examine and weight the negative aspects of this development. <br /> <br />Thank you. <br />
