I am a resident deeply concerned with a development that threatens to disrupt the peace, safety, and property value of my beloved community in Harvest, Alabama. The proposed construction of a new Chevron gas station at the intersection of Burwell Road and Jeff Road has alarmed myself and my neighbors. We fear that this development will bring an influx of traffic to our tranquil country roads. In similar cases, such developments have escalated traffic incidents by over 50% (according to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration). Increased accidents not only risk the safety of our community residents, but they also deter potential property buyers, consequently lowering our property values. This gas station is planned to sit in the middle of several high-value neighborhoods. The potential effects could drastically alter the character of our community and our quality of life. The objective of this petition is not to halt progress, but to safeguard the security of our homes and streets. Let us redirect this development to a location better suited to handle increased traffic, away from residential areas. Stand with us, tell our local decision-makers to reroute this progress and protect our neighborhoods. Sign this petition today.
