Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 Dear Mr. Shepherd: I am writing in order to voice my concern of the proposed project by Giuliano and Father Construction Company located near Hillpond, east of Sundering, and south of Spring Creek Drive. Many times in walking on Spring Creek south of our home at 1841 Wallenberg Drive, we have seen deer and other wildlife. The proposed density of this site concerns me and many members of our neighborhood. I would very much like to see this area developed into a wildlife area for the enjoyment of not only our neighborhood, but the other residents of Fort Collins who utilize the Spring Creek Trail. Also, the density of these 114 single-family lots, on 35 acres, will greatly increase the traffic along Spring Creek Trail behind our home. This development, along with the proposed Polarbek development, will congest Spring Creek Trail to a point where it will be worse than College Avenue and unusable. However, I realize that this area will probably be developed. If this is the case, I might suggest that the homes that are built, at least along the north end of the property, be similar in size, market value, and appearance to those on Wallenberg Drive. I might also suggest that covenants be initiated in the remaining smaller homes to include wood siding and shingles. Also, the type of homes that Mr. Giuliano has built in the past appear to be those that would be ideal for rental properties to students. Again, I cannot stress the impact this many people will have on Spring Creek Trail. I amgreatly opposed to this type of density and would greatly oppose any such high density development. A development more closely related to the homes in our neighborhood would be welcomed.
