The development goes by the naine,Flar'vestRoaring Forh LLC. According to newspaper aceormts, theproposed development will consist of 283 acres. The development is slated to include 1,500 residential units, 450 accessory dwelling units, 55,000 slprare feet of commercial space and a 120-room hotel. We opposethe development formany of thereasons previously expressed: the adverse environrientzil iriipact on tlie aA; watert lrrnd, and local wildlife. the increased traffic and congestion on Rt. 82, and its impact on public safety; the sffain on in&istnrctuie rintllocal services; and the loss of open space and firther of the rural character of Garfield County. While we opixe the develcipmenl being proposed we do not oppose develop'rnect altogether. We suggest that any develolment ultimately permitted be less concentrated so that the intei'ests of the dev€loper, the publie, the env,iroiiment, local wildlifg and the coiiriqF ere ftilly considered and balanced. The concentrated development being proposed certainly takes into aceount the finarcial interests of Harvest Roring Fork ard its investots, brut it gives little to no weight or considerationto the other constituencies. For all the foregoing reasons we oppos the current development application. Very truly yours, I ) J 4 /4a,,ari P**4, *"^.[ Laura Hardin David Hardin
