- ----------- -- ---- --- - --------------- Mayor Daniel G. Wall March 16, 1999 Page Four understand that the study is released for public comment and the Pollution Control Agency (PCA) will comment on the relevant issues dealing with such factors as construction work, storm water and traffic issues. This is the only way the City and its residents will know that all relevant issues will be studied. Otherwise, there will be no way of knowing in advance if this development will negatively impact the environment, or the surrounding community. FUTURE DEVELOPMENT In the event this development moves ahead without further research to address and resolve the problems as set forth in this letter, it could have a major impact on Har Mar Mall. It will also have a dramatic impact on the surrounding neighborhood. Other tenant's in the Mall may find that the traffic congestion is so great that their customers go elsewhere to do their shopping. If you lose one major tenant, it can be a domino effect and it is just a matter oftime before the Mall starts to show signs of decay. When this happens, the existing tenant's will look to find other locations to operate their businesses. Also, you potentially will create a blight zone if the houses surrounding the Mall are continually sold due to flooding, air quality and noise. I would think that Bradley would be more sensitive to these issues and be a better neighbor because they rely on the neighborhood to support the Mall. In conclusion, I would request that the City Council take these issues under consideration and postpone their decision until all the issues as raised in this correspondence have been addressed. If you have any further question, or you need any additional information please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, ~:if ~ cc: John Goedeke, Dean Maschka, Barbara Mastel, Donn Wiski
