Hello my name is Deirdre Garrison. I reside at 2868 N Rom Orchard Road, Faye?eville AR 72703
I am OPPOSED to the proposed rezoning of 3179 N. Old Wire Road (RZN-2024-0029) Reasons for opposing:
1. Safety/Traffic- there is not one sidewalk north of Mission Blvd/all the way to Joyce Blvd and anywhere along
Old Wire/Skillern Bridgewater. Already not safe to walk/bike or jog in this en?re area
2. U?li?es- we do not have updated nor adequate u?lity service to handle the exis?ng neighborhoods. Fact: Here
are the recent outages that affected our area just in the last few months: Water service (June 11-outage, June 28-outage,
August 5th-low pressure due to repairs on Old Wire) Electric service June 16-outage, July 7th-outage. And just read the
recent water shortage concerns and details of the urgent problems faced in this area given insufficient pumps, etc
3. This density of neighborhood is not fi?ng of the development in the surrounding area - Per sen?ments shared
by the City Planning Commission members in the last mee?ng where this rezone was voted down, this high density
proposed development is not fi?ng of any remotely nearby neighborhoods.
Given the reasons above and so many more that others have shared it would be irresponsible to allow this rezoning to
move forward.
Thank you for fielding the community members’ feedback and I plea with you all to not allow this rezoning to take place.
Kindly,
Deirdre
