A resident of 349 Armstrong Drive stated that he and his
neighbor ask the Board to vote against this proposal, and to
keep the property as residential.
A resident of 325 Red Bud stated that if there were commercial
on this site, it would attract other commercial, and create
severe traffic problems.
A resident of 264 Chicory stated that, once a gas station is
built, there won't be any more residential.
Joanne McIntyre, 361 Armstrong Drive, stated that the
installation of a gas station on this site will definitely
affect the surrounding property values.
