LDG's Frontgate Apartments proposal on Outer Loop; meeting with neighbors

Posted in: Apple Valley

Apple Valley Residents -
Mark your calendars - and get all of your neighbors to mark their calendars, too!

We have set a (first) meeting with LDG representatives (please see below). 

Please attend.  It is incredibly important that we all attend this meeting to show our concern as citizens of the neighborhood and learn more about what is being proposed.

 

Monday, July 16th at 7:00pm at the Government Center at 7201 Outer Loop. 

 

 

Mr. Bardenwerper:

 

Thank you for accepting our invitation.  We (the residents of Apple Valley, Cedar Creek, City of Hollow Creek, City of Spring Mill, Crimson Lake, Glencoe, Goins Manor, Highview Acres, Penn Pines, Quindero Run and Stovall Place) look forward to meeting with you. 

 

I am glad you are willing to "meet 'til the cows come home' if people want, in an effort to negotiate the points we could and, of course, to try to raise folks' levels of comfort..."  Such meetings in the future will be very beneficial for us all to engage before the Category 3 Review process is concluded.  Our first meeting can be on Monday, July 16th at 7:00pm. 

 

I am a bit discomforted (though I appreciate your candor in the first paragraph) that you imply that the current LDG proposal (which has sought tax credits) is thus less desireable than the previous proposal ("market rate rental housing").  I am also concerned that in the time since the previous "feisty crowd" meeting, there has been a lack of effort on your part to meet 'til the cows come home' with Councilman Peden and the leaders of the neighborhood associations in order to negotiate what can and should be a win-win solution.  Instead, it appears that this current proposal, thus far, has been intentionally pushed forward without consideration of the past concerns raised by area residents and over the current objections of Councilman Peden and others (once we have become aware of this new effort).  Let's work together to make up for this lost time and opportunity so we can find a win-win solution.  

 

We hope everyone comes open minded about (and willing to address) the various, legitimate concerns of the citizens of this community.

 

We look forward to our first meeting on Monday, July 16th at 7:00pm at the Government Center at 7201 Outer Loop. 

 

Thank you,

All -

This likely will be wrapped up by the end of this week.  This may give us an idea of some points of concern to highlight.
