Dear Mr. Jones:
This letter is in regard to the neighborhood information meeting scheduled at Lesher Junior High,
on October 18, 1999.
I have been the manager of The Cottonwoods and Princeton Apartments for the past four and one
half years, which are located at 620 and 634 Mathews Street, next door to New Beginnings
(formerly Larico). During my time as manager we have encountered numerous problems and
annoyances from the residents at that facility. Loitering, trespassing, smoking on our property,
profanity, disrespect, scratching tenants vehicles, throwing eggs and tomatoes on vehicles parked
in the carports, destroying the gutters and light fixtures on the garages adjacent to the property,
disposing of trash over the fence and in the parking lot etc. When these incidents have happened,
I have contacted the supervisors and let them know what has happened. It seems to be a never
ending battle due to staff changes and new residents at the facility.
Although I admire the agencies and staff that are willing to help with these particular types of
individuals and problems, I am definitely against modification of the Land Use Code to allow
another such facility in this neighborhood. I feel the problems already stated would be
compounded and more than likely become more frequent and uncontrollable.
I would be more than happy to talk to you or your staff regarding this matter, if you so desire. I
can be contacted at (970) 484-0501.
Sincerply,
Kathy M#s
Manager
