I live on this street. For the past few years the same person has been buying homes on the street and renting them out through Vrbo. They own these two lots and the Two townhouses across the street. THESE ARE NOT BEING USED AS SINGLE FAMILY HOMES. The people renting them change constantly. I'm assuming this request is to build another home to rent out as a Vrbo. I am vehemently against this. Most weeks there is a multitude of cars parked in the driveway, street, yard and elsewhere. Multiple times we've had so many cars the street has been blocked where larger trucks can't get through. The area between the houses and Townhouses stays trashed and unmaintained. There are constantly trashcans turned over, trash everywhere including broken bottles and used condoms even. There have been lots of loud parties there also, especially this past Fall when there were KUB contactors there for about 8 weeks. Loud music and drunks walking in the street all hours of the day and night. We've complained to the county and sheriffs office about this and they have done nothing. One man in the neighborhood had to have a fence installed between him and the Townhouse because people kept hanging out in his yard and walking around his house.
I am completely opposed to any expansion of these properties and my neighbors are also.

Leaving in the immediate area of where this house may be built; and I am concerned of the following:
1. Parking along Orkney Circle - with the houses in this cul-de-sac currently, there are already cars parking on both sides of the road and I am concerned that added another house in this tiny lot that it will make it even worse and make our quiet street busier.
2. Property lines/zoning - after recently having to revise a permit (for a carport) due to the 35' easement requirements (from the property lines) I do not feel that this potential house can fit in the lot that it is going (roughly .23 acres) without not abiding by those rules/restrictions. This is simply not fair. And I feel that this lot is far too small for another house without impeding on the 2 houses already there (1 on Barbury and 1 on Orkney).
3. Being in the construction industry - I am concerned with the noise and traffic (machines, vehicles) that will come with building a new house. In addition, with all the random people being around during the build (I have a 2yo).

This will not be a family dwelling, it's going to be another air bnb . She already has 4 of them on the same block. This has resulted in neighbors calling the police and having OSHA come out to clean the drains after one of her hotel guests dumped 5 quarts of oil down them. They fill up the streets parking both ways on the road. I've been here for 34 years and since she has started these rentals, the quality of the neighborhood has gone down. This used to be a community where we didn't have to lock our cars, but that has all changed now. Someone needs to lobby against these air bnb's taking over neighborhoods.

I am writing this comment/letter in the regards of new construction being presented in my neighborhood. I would like to first off say this is a very bad idea, as we already have issues with traffic. Sheila Diane Proffitt Crum already has three Air bnb's in that location with limited parking. The police have been out several times to have her tenets move there vehicles, and putting another rental property on that block will cause even more issues. I could also speak on other issues we have had with her tenets but do not want to get off course, but we have had issues with her renters in the past. I would also like to make it clear that Sheila does not live here, and or in the neighborhood, we all feel like she does what she wants with no consequences. Over all we are all pretty upset with her and the way she treats the neighborhood, and putting another house on the block to where Shiela can rent out with out proper parking will just lead to more issues, so I would like to appose this other rental property in a all ready small neighborhood with limited parking.

We do not want another house to be zoned and approved to build in the community. This lady is buy all the houses in the street and using them as an Airbnb. They are over crowding the homes they have already with at time 10-15 people staying in them. They drink and block the roadway with their many vehicles making it impossible for home owns to get by at times. Please do not allow anyone other homes to be built in the community.

I'm very concerned and upset about this setback request for the 7 new homes being built on this lot. The homes are already planned to be more dense than all other homes on Jenkins Road, thus reducing property values for existing homes on and off Jenkins road. This request to reduce the setback for this project should be rejected. It's already too dense, too close and just too much. The developer showed us his plans a couple of years ago and got all the modifications he requested. Now what? Why is this change being requested? Super unhappy registered voters. We'll see you at the meeting on Thursday.

The current setbacks exist for a reason. Allowing these homes to move closer to the already existing neighborhood and homes would not only be a nuisance but also extremely unsightly. The existing homes have been in places for over 3 decades and it is unfair to those home owners to adjust existing rules simply to accommodate a developer who wants to make the most out of a lot that already had/has a single family home in place. The entire area will be negatively impacted by setting a new standard saying maximizing lot infill takes priority over community aesthetic and feel. Simply put, this is not an apartment complex or mobile home park and the area should not be treated as such.

I say no to this request. Our property has already been breached by digging, heavy equipment, damage to our water line, and replacing the exit from our asphalt driveway with gravel, which still remains torn up after 2 months. I think Mr. Cheban has had way more impact on our property line than is required.

This property will not end up as a single-family dwelling, but will end up being yet another rental property the owner will rent out on Vrbo and/or AirBnB. The property owner already owns four such rental properties on Barbury Lane (one duplex and two single-family homes) and the amount of vehicles already congesting the street is getting out of hand. There have been several altercations between the tenants and local law enforcement due to vehicles parked in such a way that normal residents have had issues entering and exiting their own driveways. If this proposal goes through, there will be yet another rental unit with even more vehicles taking up street space. Because of this and other unmentioned issues with this property owner, I vehemently oppose this proposition.

As a resident directly affected by the properties in question, I am vehemently against the addition of yet another short term rental near a school childerns' bus stop. The piece of land in question is not reasonably large enough to add a home sized structure. It is also worth noting that this will not be adding a single family home to the neighborhood, it will be adding a 4th short term vrbo rental building to the end of the street. The 3 existing buildings have long been a nuisance of litter & parking issues.
