Our peaceful neighborhood is at the brink of facing drastic changes - an unwanted hotel construction fueled by a proposed rezoning plan. The plan aims at changing the zoning of properties along Hwy 82 and Marlow from C1 to C2, paving a clear path for the establishment of large-scale commercial enterprises. For many of us, our neighborhood is not just a location, but a sanctuary, a place where memories are created and preserved. Changing the zoning to C2 disrupts the tranquility of our living space to accommodate commercial interests. According to a study by the National Association of Realtors, such zoning alterations can decrease property values (National Association of Realtors Research Group, 2020), putting our investment and hard-earned assets at risk. The upgrade to C2 zoning will only encourage high traffic, noise pollution, and possible security concerns that can harm the children, elderly, and everyone loving this serene place. Let's join our forces to save our neighborhood, its ethos, and memories that we hold dear. Please consider signing this petition to stop the rezoning of Hwy 82 and Marlow from C1 to C2.
