As a resident of Concord Village we take great pride in living here and work hard to maintain the historical preservation of this county treasure. After having reviewed the proposal, I am writing to request this development be denied, or significantly modified as it would have a major negative effect on our community. This development is far too large for this space and better suited on Lovell Road or somewhere off of Pellissippi. The additional traffic backups and accidents, crime, noise and evasive lighting would be devastating, especially if allowed to be open 24/7. It would seem that a small office complex, bank, library, or multi use light retail area would fit in much better. Should the Staff/Commission be of the opinion that the proposal be allowed to proceed, I ask it do so with the following stipulations:
1) The operating hours be no more than 6a-10p. 2) The setback be at least 75 feet. 3) No traffic be allowed to exit onto Second Drive. and 4) Steps be taken to scale back this over sized development and address concerns of noise, lighting, traffic and crime. Thank you. Please see attached file.
