We simply can not afford to keep growing at this rate. The infrastructure in Hardin Valley can not accommodate this many people. Our schools are WAY overcrowded, traffic is getting worse and Hardin Valley past Solway Road is 2 lanes. Growth is important but it needs to be done responsibly. Kids have to walk to school if within 1 1/2 miles with sidewalks on the main road and few crossing areas. We have no parks in the immediate Hardin Valley area, no greenways and too much traffic. Please stop approving these massive developments so irresponsibly.

It is a narrow 2 lane road all the way down Hardin Valley with traffic backing up past I-140. We can not keep this up! The schools are so overcrowded that more portable are being added to the elementary school. Traffic is a nightmare. I offer you to drive to the proposed sites at 7:20 am, 3pm and at 5:30pm. We have no parks or greenways very few business and overcrowded roads. Please vote responsibly.

This growth has got to stop , at least for a while! Have you driven down HV road lately? During school zone times, it is bumper to bumper from Pellissippi to Steele Road. The road cannot handle any more traffic! Our elementary & high school are over capacity and the Middle will be there soon. A new elementary school is a feeble attempt to help, it won’t matter if hundreds of homes and apartments keep being built. HV cannot sustain this growth. Please consider a lower unit/acre if a subdivision must be built but we have to work on our infrastructure! The work being done at HV/Pellissippi is going to help some but there’s so much more that needs to be done before more homes are built. Please consider the community over money.

As a current resident of Hardin Valley, I object to the proposed rezoning. When I moved to Hardin Valley ten years ago, it was a quiet country community. Since I arrived, the rural character of our community has been lost to cookie-cutter developments and roads stretched past capacity. Please reject this zoning change or at least reduce the number of units allowed per acre to preserve the integrity to our community and our greatest resource—our schools.

Ball Homes is a blight upon Hardin Valley. As a current resident of Hardin Valley, I object to the proposed rezoning. When I moved to Hardin Valley ten years ago, it was a quiet country community.

Please reconsider this approval. Hardin Valley's infrastructure is stretched too thin as it is without adding more people, cars, and possible students.Thank you!
