We the undersigned, all members of the Boxelder Homeowners Association, strongly
oppose the extension or "connectivity" of ANY of the streets in our Boxelder Estates into
or with the proposed development to the East of these roads for the following reasons:
a) Increased traffic and related impact on the roads. The roads, being owned by
the homeowners are the responsibility of the homeowners for repairs and
maintenance. We strongly object to the potential additional traffic and added
costs to maintain these roads due to increased traffic.
b) Our legal liability increases.
c) The private land separating Boxelder Estates, known as part of the
Cooperslew Drainage, and the land proposed for developing was purchased by
some of the Boxelder homeowners quite a few years ago specifically to
prevent the extension of ANY of these roads. We strongly support their
reasons for the purchase.
d) There are no "Health, Welfare or Safety" issues involved to justify the
extension.

August 12, 2003
My name is C. J. Streit. I have lived at 3430 Surrey Lane since 1975.
We thank you for the opportunity to be here and participate in a public hearing on the
proposed Master Plan adjoining our Open Space and Boxelder Estates. We don't intend
to keep you here till 1:00 or 2:00 in the mornin$even if we could!
I'm here on behalf of the 20 residences in Boxelder Estates who own a strip of land that
lies between Boxelder Estates and the land in the Master Plan. We're known as the
Cooperslew Open Space Association. I will be followed by the Vice President of the
Cooperslew Open Space Association and then 2 members of the Boxelder Homeowners
Association.
We anticipated that you might prefer access across this strip of land to connect Boxelder
Estates streets to the land in the Master Plan. We are solidly opposed to any type access.
We purchased this land in 1993 for the sole purpose of preventing any extension of our
streets in Boxelder Estates. Our opposition is as strong as ever for the following reasons:
The character of our neighborhood would change dramatically. There are 44
homes in the Boxelder Homeowners Association. We know every resident and
are a tight knit neighborhood. Any kind of through access would alter this
situation.
2. Safety issue. This one egress/ingress provides a certain safety factor which we do
not want to lose.
3. Liability issue. Access across our open space land would put us at a greater risk
liability wise.
4. The water table in the open space varies through the year, some areas being
identified as wetlands. Also, there are the environmental issues with roads and
potential endangered species in this space.
5. Maintenance. The owners are responsible for the maintenance of this area. Our
costs and supervision responsibilities could increase dramatically.
6. There are no health, safety and welfare issues involved that would make access
necessary.
In closing, I emphasize that emotions run deep on this issue. We are before you in a
united, powerful, peaceful manner to let you know we do not want any type access across
our open space. We hope you listen and honor our request. If future protests are
necessary, I doubt they will be as orderly as we planned this one. You don't deserve that
and we do not want to be in that position. I now ask Bonnie Newton, the Vice President
of our Open Space Association to come forth.
