e e ~ August 4-, 1970 V'Mayor A. Donald Moll Councilman Cameron D. Anderson Councilman Thomas J, Curley Councilman Albert W. Grauel Councilman Gale Lineburger Gentlemen: w~ are directly concerned with the proposed development by Vie~con Inc., for a number of reasons, most of whi~h in- volve the quality of life in Roseville. Four years ago, I established the home office of Total Export, Inc., in Rose- ville and since have enjoyed the benef~ts of operating a business in such a progressive community. When ~t came time for our family to move earlier this year, we naturally chose Roseville, both because of its proximity to my job and be- cause there were still some attractive natural areas in this highly developed community. The enclosed flyer explains the benefits of such an area much better than I could so I will not dwell on this point any further. hnother area of. concern for us is the fact that this proposed development is to be uuilt ~djacent to our property. This will result in both a loss of privacy and a reduction in the value of the land and hous~ we just purchased. The village code is constructed in such a manner as to protect adjacent resident1al lando'dners from suffering these consequences, i.e., specif1c buffer zones, barriers, etc. Viewcon's proposal would mlnimize the effect of these regulations through re- zonlng, (I-l to B-1). Furthermore, as I have traveled through Roseville, I noted that very cinimun step& have been taken to fulfill tte lntent of the code. For example, the chain link fence seoarating Bar-Mar from the adjacent residential areas. RosevllJe grew to its eVlsting status becaus' of the fore- s1ght and .::oncern of its counc..l and per:r.anent residents. nOW- ev~r, lt 13 now slowly being transfOrMed into a co~unlty in Wh1Ch a large segment of lts populatlon 15 translent. People who r.1ove into a COl""J':lUn1ty for a montl~, a year, or even two years generally make ~ mlnlm~~ contrlbutlon to it. Thus we are 3g31n sacr1flclnG the qUUllty of l~fe 1n th1S co~~unity for additlonal COT~erclal developr.1ent. "~~~ ;"1~.
