These concerns are based on professional assessment from water control <br /> professionals hired by my insurance company (USAA) and Mark Gronberg, Mark Gronberg and <br /> Associates, Engineering, Land Surveyors and Planners, both have voiced concerns about the <br /> effect the proposed excavation and builing structure will have on my and Mr.Tom Aherns' <br /> property. Here is a list of our conerns to the variances requested for the building on the lot at <br /> 1325 Restpoint Lane. <br /> 1. Water flow from excavation of proposed house would increase current water problems <br /> effecting my basement and would effect Mr. Aherns' basement and we are very concerned <br /> about the expense and unknown further water issues as a result of this building. <br /> 2. Proposed house that would affect the retaining wall located on my property. This property <br /> was previously owned by the previous owner of my property and had build the retaining wall <br /> along the easement and also had put in a blacktop driveway from edge of property to <br /> Restpoint Lane. <br /> 3. The previous owner had installed a portion of the sprinkler system on the property which <br /> he had owned, that system would need to be retrenched due to the proposed sale. <br /> 4. Current snow removal of property has become very challenging and will be more <br /> challenging with the location of the driveway and house location. <br /> 5. The road will have increased traffic with blind spots do to the layout of the house and <br /> garage. We have 12 grandchildren that play in that area and we have concerns about the <br /> increased traffic in a confined area. <br /> 6. Potential loss of property value due to the increased water issues from placement of house <br /> and water table disruption. <br /> These are issues that will cost us money and potential damage to our house. <br />
