The granting of these variances to allow a <br />subdivision of the property and the construction of an additional residence would have a <br />very negative impact ~pon our rights to enjoy our property as well as decrease the value <br />of our property. "When we purchased our property we understood that some of the lots <br />were of sufficient size to be subdivided. such as the Weyandt property to our west,. but <br />that the properties to the east were of insufficient size to subdivide. We relied upon the <br />regulations contained within your zoning code to guarantee that the density, views and <br />open space would remain relatively unchanged to the east. We weren"t thrilled when the <br />Weyandt property was subdivided, but we stood behind there right to subdivide and <br />buil~ because their property mct the zoning requirements- <br /> <br />The DeFlorian property is not only too small in area, it is also too narrow in \I.o-idth. <br />Granting of these variances would simply profit those collecting upon the Estate ofMnx <br />DeFlorian at our expense. Max DeFlorian was a very good neighbor to us. but we see no <br />reason that his Estate should profit at our expense. We are also alanned at the thought of <br />the 1'recedent that this might set in our neighborhood. We trost that you will uphold the <br />MINIMUM standards set forth in the code and recommend rejecting this application. We <br />thank you for your efforts. <br /> <br />s~:~ <br /> <br />Brian J.
