OBJECTION TO PROPOSED PAINTED HILLS DEVELOPMENT
Current Description: 1) Comprehensive Plan -- Low density - residential
The proposed plans indicate an Apt. Complex consisting of "228" Units on 11.95 acres -
- 19 units per acre -- plus 20' wide " row houses " 2) Existing Zoning
Single Family residential ( R-3) / Low density residential development intended to
preserve the character of existing neighborhood -- (6) units per acre -- single family,
dbl. garages, off street parking & large yards.
What the developer is proposing is totally foreign to the neighborhood and the
Comprehensive Plan.
(6) housing units per acre / vs proposed "228" unit apt. complex / 20' wide lots for "Row
Houses" / 19 Housing units per acre (11.95 acres).
This is the Spokane Valley...not Chicago...New York??!! Why is a zoning change even
being considered? Is this just to satisfy a developer? The developer was aware of the
existing zoning and the fact the property is considered a flood plane and wetland
designation. They need to design a quality development within the existing parameters and take advantage of a creek, animal thru-way and wetlands... a pristine area!
Please represent the hundreds of homeowners. We appreciate where we live and
object to this development. NO ZONE CHANGE!
