Enclaves-CS 931110 · ]! ' ' 'l the City and the Planning & Zoning Board to eonmde ' an changes to the proposed "lVlarks Apartments": 1) A 10-foot masonry wall be constructed surrounding the South & West side of the apartment complex; 2) We understand that Buildings #8 are to be 8-story. We oppose all 8-story buildings. We would prefer all buildings to be a maximum of 2-stories. Furthermore, we feel strongly that Building #3-M presents a great fire hazard. If that building is truly three stories and catches on fire, there is not sufficient access for a ladder-fire truck to get to it. We therefore would request that the Fire Marshall look closely at the plans for this building and it's placement in the complex; 3) Those houses who border the drainage easements on the south and west side of the complex have numerous rodent problems -- rats, mice, beavers, etc. There will have to be weep holes in the masonry wall which would allow these rodents to set up house near the dumpsters. Therefore we would ask that the dumpster placement be re-thought, so no dumpsters were close to the drainage easements; 4) Those houses who border the drainage easements have had extensive cleaning done on the land next to the drainage easement. We would therefore ask that the developer for the Marks Apartment Complex be responsible for clearing and maintaining the drainage easement. PETITION We the citizens surrounding the proposed "Marks Apar men~s" woum-l~rej the City and the Planning & Zoning Board to oppose th e proposed apartment complex completely. That particular peiee of land is surrounded by single family housing whose value would be greatly diminished. We feel the land should be rezoned to single family which would blend in with existing neighborhoods. Signature Printed Name & Address
