ment has a stake in this decision because the low areas will be filled
and the flood plain will be altered; 3) traffz. on Zachary lane from
this development woul be Pxcessive and *uld make it a dangar.-?;s
street; 4) realtors A;.-eed a home acv,:;9,- from a townhouse would be
10-25 percent less in value. The association opposed construction
of townhouses in the urea and made the following requests:
