I Agency Member Risner referred to letters published in the local newspaper the past week relating to the development project proposed for the Hellman property, and reported resulting telephone calls from residents expressing their concerns with regard to the project. She reported some of the concerns focused on the location and elevation of buildings in relation to existing Hill properties, density, size of the condominium units, reduction of Gum Grove Park acreage, the wetlands area, grading plans, the amount of usable public open space, night lighting of the driving range and golf course, the need for tennis facilities, etc. She stated her belief that saving the Gum Grove Park is what the majority of citizens desire, made reference to the current boundary of the Park, the potential loss of sixty percent of that area under the revised development plan, and noted the lack of information as to the boundary of the 4.7 acres of the Park proposed to be retained, to be part of the golf course and used for public access.
