Subject: Opposition to Proposed Power Plant
Dear Mohave County Board of Supervisors,
I am writing to express my strong opposition to the proposed power plant project in Mohave Valley. The proposed project does not follow the current approved Mohave County General Plan.
The potential environmental impacts, including air and water pollution, pose significant risks to the health and well-being of me and my family. Furthermore, the long-term economic consequences, such as decreased property values and potential costs related to health care and environmental cleanup, are of great concern.
The lack of oversight of where this power will be deferred to is a strong concern of our community. The visual eyesore within our community is not something to be highlighted in a rural residential neighborhood.
Residents in Mohave Valley do not want the general plan to be amended which opens up future zoning changes and continued development from residential to industrial. We live here because we wanted to live here without being in a city or urban area.
I urge you to reconsider this project, keep the integrity of the already approved General Plan, and explore more community-friendly alternatives. There are areas within our county already zoned for these types of projects. The company had the opportunity to work with Planning & Zoning to identify areas that are zoned for their business instead of causing more dismay in our small community. Our focus should be on preserving the rural lifestyle that makes Mohave Valley special and the quality of life for our community.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
