Dear Ms. Albertson -Clark:
As one of the Villas of the Village home owners living directly
across from Ed Farinelli, Jr. I am most concerned about his request for
adding another employee and expanding the Chiropractic Clinic in our
residential area. My objections are as follows:
1. This will down -grade considerably our real estate values as
home owners. I do not believe the area can accommodate any more cars
than those that are constantly parked there during the day now. His
property has no garage facilities and very little parking space in the
small corner drive he uses in front of his office/home. This will grow
worse with the expansion of his needs. It definitely adds to the commer-
cial business appearance of the property and detracts from the appearance
of the surrounding homes. It will also create parking and traffic problems
beyond what can be adequately handled in a residential neighborhood. The
term Clinic denotes more than one person working on the premises and by
allowing this in a residential area and having cars parked all around his
property, lowers the desirability of living in our area and our real estate
will thereby suffer loss.
2. Since I understand Ed Farinelli, Jr. does not own this property,
he does not have the same interest we do as home owners. I feel it would
be most unfair to change the neighborhood to suit his business needs while
creating a wedge to bring in other commercial ventures, thus down -grading
our homes even more. If Ed Farinelli wants to open a clinic I cannot
understand why he does not relocate in one of the very fine medical or
office areas of the City rather than putting it right in the middle of our
residential location. A double -sided sign has been placed on the front of
his property as well as a small sign, and I question whether this conforms
with the rules and regulations of a residential area.
3. The City of Fort Collins is installing traffic lights on the corner
of Swallow Road and Stover. As the traffic increases this will present
extreme hazard getting in and out of this corner property, expecially with
patients' vehicles parked along the curb.

I feel that allowing this clinic to exist and taking on still another
employee will have a very detrimental effect on the Villas of the Village
and other homes in our area. I hope that we can save our property
from the further erosion of value and appearance this would create.
We thank you for your attention and will be most appreciative of
any consideration and help you can give us.
Sincerely,
N
