We are heart broken that thousands of trees have been bulldozed and the wildlife habitat has been destroyed for the deer, turkeys and hawks. The streams and creeks have been terribly impacted be all of the tree debris and dirt being pushed into the these very sensitive waterways.

I have spoken to many of the folks who live near is property they want to rezone…..not a single person I have spoken with wants this beautiful rural area turned into hundreds of home and hundreds of cars on the already unsafe roads……People moved to the country for a reason and that was to get away from the congestion and neighbors on top of them.

4 houses per acre is way to dense and tearing down all these trees is just awful…..Leaving Tree trash piles everywhere is very disrespectful to all of your neighbors!!! Clean up the mess and be a bit more concerned about what the community thinks of your housing development in their front yard

I’m a big no to this plan…..I’m a big no to their driveway right in front of our driveway and I’m a big no to hundreds of cars on our little country road and our community is a big no as well!!!

Please Stop Destroying the rural Beauty

Please Stop Destroying the Peace and Tranquillity

Please Stop Destroying the Wildlife Habitat

I implore you to not continue with the thunder mountain subdivision. So many wildlife habitats, bat caves, and creeks will be devastated and gone with this subdivision. This subdivision will produce so much traffic and will be huge concern for safety and well being of my family. This area development is not needed and will create over-crowded schools and horrendous traffic. Please do not destroy this beautiful habitat for a subdivision!

Already upset about the stewardship of the land. That this developer has shown. The only solitude we have after a forty to sixty hour week. Two or three evening's a week. We have enjoyed watching the fawn settle in the high grass as parent's graze. Even the live stock we have watched over the years brings some normal to the chaos. All this comes with a view that people travel far to see. The rezoning will compromise all this As well as traffic and crime. That we have already seen an increase of such at state and city levels. We are finally getting the roads we needed ten years ago. Now the Rezoning, more infrastructure will be needed. Police presence will have to increase even though that department is short handed and unlikely to change even with a Tax increase. Fire department another cost increase. I'm sure Seymour Volunteers would end up answering most calls. I dont agree that this part of the county is ready for the expansion they are proposing.

I am writing as a representative of the Keep the Urban Wilderness Peaceful community group. We advocate for the preservation of the rural community we reside in and advocate for reasonable development that fits within the zoning and sector plans of the area. Project 11-F-21-RZ is another example of the disregard and destruction of rural areas that has become the blight of lack of Knox Co planning and the destruction of our beloved communities for greed and development. This project must not be approved as proposed.
