the Council.
Chairman Stephen Smith opened the Public Hearing.
Michael Goldberg, property owner of a green house next to the proposed development,
felt he would be losing his rights. He believes new residents will complain about the lights
in the green house that need to stay on all night.

quiet neighborhood. The Senior Living facility that currently exists in this area is
separated by a chain link fence which provides no privacy for residents.

believes this development will bring more traffic into the neighborhood, and the proposed
project is to large for the small parcel of land.
