<br />on a dead-end street, they are concerned about the traffic and the liability that may resolve from a <br />semi-trailer possibly hitting a car or children. Mr. Smittkamp stated that the first criteria that the <br />Planning Commission is asked to use is that a proposed use/development would not be contrary <br />to the general welfare and economic prosperity of the City or the immediate neighborhood. The <br />family that owns this building and has a three year lease with McData, is concerned that if an <br />accident should occur, whether it is a result of a semi-trailer or anybody else coming or going on <br />this dead-end street, related to their property, or any of the other industrial uses around there, that <br />they may not be able to get a tenant in there. This is their primary concern and they do think it <br />will effect their economic liability. <br /> <br />Peter Blackford, 177 Boulder View Lane, owner of the vacant property between the McData <br />building and the proposed location for the Peak to Peak School. Mr. Blackford and his wife were <br />very surprised to hear of the proposal to locate a school within the CTC, which they understood <br />to be a development, which was planned and designed specifically for light industrial use. They <br />think that the concept of having locations specifically designed for such use is a very sound one <br />and it makes sense for a community to provide areas for light industry where they can operate <br />without impacting on the rest of the community. They believe that locating a school in the CTC is <br />completely inappropriate for the reasons that in affect they are taking the area of the community <br />that is set aside for light industrial use so that they can operate without infringing on the <br />community and now the community in this case, wants to bring a school into the CTC. Mr. <br />Blackford and his wife are sympathetic with Peak to Peak and all that it stands for and all that it <br />wants to accomplish. However, they are concerned with the limitations that have been put upon <br />their property and other properties in CTC in having to adapt the use to the needs of the school <br />and guarantee safety and well being of the children in the school. <br /> <br />Frank Harrison, 1105 West Enclave Circle, Louisville. Mr. Harrison stated that he and his wife <br />have enrolled their children in to Peak to Peak this fall and would like to encourage the <br />Commission to consider this favorably. This is very important to their family in their position to <br />the education of their children in Louisville. <br /> <br />Nancy Patch, 528 Manorwood Lane, Louisville. Ms. Patch stated that she will have two children <br />in Peak to Peak this fall and another child the year after. She asked that the Commission support <br />Peak to Peak to create a win-win situation for both the city and the families. <br /> <br />Laurin Quiat, with the Law Firm of Baker and Hostetler, representing the McBride Brothers who <br />own the property directly across the street from the proposed school at 1815 Boxelder. Mr. <br />Quiat would like to echo what Mr. Smittkamp had to say. Mr. Quiat wanted to stress that his <br />client is not anti-school. They do not believe that this proposed location is good for either the <br />school nor for the businesses in the CTC area. It is not good for the school because of safety <br />issues. Mr. Quiat stated that McBride Brothers has 20 to 40 tractor trailers per day going in and <br />out of their property at the end of the dead-end street. Combined with the letter from NSL, <br />where they indicate 12 trucks a day, they are going to have without McBrides expansion, over 50 <br />trucks per day up and down that street. The trucks mainly come between 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. <br /> <br /> 10 <br /> <br />
