The proposed project would appear to better utilize excess right-of-way along San Marnan for new residential growth within the community. The Development Agreement will work to ensure the new roadway is in place from the vacated portion to allow for continued use of this route for future travelers, while creating over 20 new residential lots within the community.

From: Larry O'Brien [mailto:lob53@mchsi.com] Sent: Monday, June 20, 2011 2:08 PM To: Carolyn Cole Subject: SanMarnan Drive housing proposal I encourage you to vote no on the current proposal for the construction of new homes along SanMarnan, next to the golf course. If this is something that needs to be done, then the alternative road should be constructed before the SanMarNan work. If this proceeds, the traffic should not be impeded by a slower speed limit that will discourage neighbors to use SanMarnan. Many of our customers use this access to come to our Culvers Restaurant. We as well, don't want to use a road with a slower speed limit when traveling east.
