Plano Planning & Zoning Commission PO Box 860358 Plano Planning & Zoning Commission P.O. Box 860358 Plano, TX 75086-0358 Dear Commissioners: Subject: The Plano Tomorrow Plan I request that as a commissioner representing my family and other citizens of Plano, you vote NO!! on the Plan. Regarding the Plano Tomorrow Plan, I believe available land in non-residential areas should be reserved for economic development such as corporate offices, retail and entertainment. The very limited land remaining in residential areas should promote home ownership and a vested interest in the city such as single family homes, including owner-occupied patio and townhomes. I am particularly concerned about the Plan’s intent to replace existing retail with thousands of dense apartments at Park & Preston and believe that is an inappropriate use of land for this area and this will directly affect my neighborhood and surrounding schools. Adding 25,000 to 40,000 apartments to Plano for the sake of population growth do es not constitute economic development and is not a desirable objective for Plano. Our roads, schools and infrastructure are already overburdened and these dense projects are only sucking our resources while not contributing to space for schools, parks, traffic improvement and other needs. Dense midrise and mixed use apartments do not add to the attractiveness of our city and should only be allowed in very limited circumstances where residential space is less than 50% of the project and there are substantial amenities for the community such as park s. The City of Plano is already 22% more dense than the city of Dallas and is at risk of losing its suburban appeal. Projects already approved by the city have taken apartments to 34% of the city’s housing, which is more than enough. I do not believe that percentage should go any higher. Plano is a great place for families with excellent schools. Let’s keep it that way. The Plano Future Organization has sent you and the city a number of suggested amendments that in my opinion should be made before any consideration should be given to adopting the Plan. Sincerely, Name: Robert & Victoria Kirk Date: September 21, 2015 Address: 4608 Normandy Lane Plano, TX 75093 Plano Planning & Zoning Commission P.O. Box 860358 Plano, TX 75086-0358 Dear Commissioners: Subject: The Plano Tomorrow Plan I ask you to vote No on the Plano Tomorrow Plan until it is substantially amended. I am deeply concerned that my opinion and my neighbors’ opinions regarding the future development of Plano is being ignored. I object to designating the area around Costco - Shops of Willowbend as Compact Complete Center and believe this is an inappropriate use of land. I object to the tens of thousands of dense apartments the Plan seeks to add to the city including in the following areas: Shops of Willow Bend/Costco, Park& Preston Shopping Center, Lakeside/Kohls Shopping Center, Windhaven Parkway, transit corridors and at other four corner retail sites throughout the City. Traffic conditions at many intersections of the city, including along Park between Midway and the Tollway are terrible and our schools are showing signs of stress. We don’t need additional housing density to make it any worse. Despite feedback from library open-houses, surveys, speeches, letters, and community meetings, the direction of Plano Tomorrow Plan has not really changed. I pay Plano property taxes and my voice should be heard. It’s time that Plano officials do what the taxpayers want and not what the developers and political insiders desire. I support the amendments that Plano Future has proposed to you on the Plano Tomorrow Plan and zoning interim amendments. Please do the right thing and represent the voice of the citizens of Plano which is what you were appointed to do. Sincerely, Elaine Stebbins 1408 Tree Farm Drive Plano, TX 75093 Plano Planning & Zoning Commission P.O. Box 860358 Plano, TX 75086-0358 Dear Commissioners: Subject: The Plano Tomorrow Plan We ask you to vote No on the Plano Tomorrow Plan until it is substantially amended. We are deeply concerned that our opinion and our neighbors’ opinions regarding the future development of Plano is being ignored. We object to the designating the area around Costco - Shops of Willowbend as Compact Complete Center and believe this is an inappropriate us of land. We object to the tens of thousands of dense apartments the Plan seeks to add to the city including in the following areas: Shops of Willow Bend/Costco, Park & Preston Shopping Center, Lakeside/Kohls Shopping Center, Windhaven Parkway, transit corridors and at other four corner retail sites throughout the City. We moved to Plano almost two decades ago for a reason. At that time, the mix of available housing was appropriate, and Plano’s city planning was on target. But lately there has been a never ending push for high density projects. The direct result of this destructive push are crowded roads and schools. In short, things are an overcrowded, high density, mess! We don’t need additional housing density to make it any worse. Despite feedback from library open houses, surveys, speeches, letters, and community meetings, the direction of Plano Tomorrow Plan has not really changed. We pay Plano property taxes and our voice should be heard. It’s time that Plano officials do what the taxpayers want and not what the developers and political insiders’ desire. We support the amendments that Plano Future has proposed to you on the Plano Tomorrow Plan and zoning interim amendments. Please do the right thing and represent the voice of the citizens of Plano, which is what you were appointed to do. Sincerely, Brian and Tina Hollingsworth 5705 Arrow Point Dr. Plano, Tx Hello, I ask you to vote No on the Plano Tomorrow Plan until it is substantially amended. I am deeply concerned that my opinion and my neighbors’ opinions regarding the future development of Plano is being ignored.

Kind Regards, Raphael and Selam Fesseha Neiman Marcus Accounting Supervisor Real Estate & Payroll Accounting Phone: 214-761-2683 Fax: 214-761-2778 I have lived in Plano for 17 Years and love our city. Growth is good but adding apartments will overcrowd our High Schools, which are already at maximum capacity . Traffic has increasing become an issue in and around my neighborhood. There are many shopping areas that need to be revitalized. Collin Creek mall is a good example of aging retail space. There are many strip centers that need redevelopment. Bringing massive amounts of people into our city without increasing the retail, grocery, resources and schools will be a catastrophe to our overcrowd schools, aging shopping centers and traffic flow. Do we have the emergency services to handle the amount of people that apartment bring to the city? I would like it to be know that I am for Plano but against the Plano Tomorrow Plan. Thank you for taking into consideration the opinion of the people who live in Plano, I would hate to live in a city that railroads agendas for the sake of money. Cari Goodman Commissioners; 09/21/15 Why is this still coming up? My family and No other current homeowner in my neighborhood wants more apartments in our City. Not now, not in the future, not ever. We already have to many apartments now! Single family homes, repeat only build quality single family homes. I request and urge you to “VOTE NO” for the Plano Tomorrow Plan until amended. Again “VOTE NO”. This Homeowner and all my neighbors do not want their property values to drop. Quickest way… add more apartments to our great single family neighborhoods. We don’t need additional housing density, apartments with transient people. They will detract from cozy suburban feel and quality of our current lifestyle. Don’t build more apartments for families who will bring down our great schools. I support the amendments that PlanoFuture.org has proposed to you on the Plano tomorrow Plan and interim amendments. Please… Support what the current resident homeowner taxpayers want and not what developers with political insiders desire. Be my voice do the right thing for the citizens of Plano. Do what you were appointed to do. Frank Jay 5133 Fairglen Dr. Plano, Texas 75093 Ph: 972-991-6669 Cell: 972-672-6728 Plano Planning & Zoning Commission P.O.
