Lindsey Court Townhome Association | New Brighton, MN <br />2 <br /> <br />The Lindsey Court Townhome Association recognizes the value and importance to the City of New <br />Brighton to thrive, foster city growth, and create housing for elder citizens. We do not oppose the <br />BHCC expansion. <br />The Lindsey Court Townhome Association asks the City of New Brighton to please be thoughtful in review <br />and planning of all aspects of development that changes our neighborhoods, to preserve our quality of life <br />in New Brighton, and keep our residents safe on our streets & in our homes. <br />We also respectfully seek involvement by the City of New Brighton to protect and preserve the Lindsey <br />Court Townhome community associated with any expansion of BHCC. <br />We look to the New Brighton City Planning Commission to ensure that the expansion of BHCC will not <br />create the following problems for the residents of Lind sey Court: <br /> Manage vehicle traffic and speed to prevent danger for pedestrians and bicycles on 27th, Linden <br />Drive, Black Oaks, and the 694 frontage road <br /> Difficulties exiting Lindsey Court <br /> Loss of privacy / safety (result of 2 and 4 story buildings, expanded parking lots, and increased <br />visitors) <br /> Noise and exhaust fumes that prevent enjoyment of our patios, decks, or open windows <br /> Water run off / drainage from expanded BHCC parking lot (route water away from Lindsey Court <br />homes and minimize routing to our small run off pond) <br /> Damages to Lindsey Court property (landscaping, irrigation system, etc.) during the construction <br />or afterwards due to changes in ground structure (erosion to our rock retaining wall in west <br />property line) <br />We have a few ideas on how these concerns may be addressed but admittedly we are not <br />professionals. It would be ideal if Lindsey Court could explore solutions collaboratively with the city <br />planners and BHCC. <br />Representatives from the Lindsey Court Townhome Association plan to attend the February 19, 2019 <br />planning commission meeting at the New Brighton City Hall and will cite our concerns at that forum. <br />We hope that by communicating our concerns in advance, there can preliminary discussions in advance <br />to alleviate our worries and be helpful to all parties. <br /> <br />Thank you for your consideration. <br /> <br />Respectfully, <br />The Lindsey Court Townhome Association <br />David Halstensgard, President (e: halstiedog@comcast.net | m: 612-965-2082) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />CC Ben Gozola, City of New Brighton - Assistant Director of Community Assets & Development <br /> <br /> Reid Hewitt, Benedictine Health Care Center – Administrator / CEO
