Mr. Shestak -
I am a current resident of the west side Saddle Creek neighborhood and have lived here for 15 years. I understand there
are hearings coming up about the proposed Ambleside Point and wanted to share my thoughts. Overall, I think
development could be a great addition to the area and I look forward to continued positive growth here. That being
said, it is my understanding the that the proposed housing density is far in excess of the current zoning and the City will
be evaluating that proposal. I am concerned that a nearly 4x increase over the current zoning will put undue pressure
on the traffic patterns in and out of Saddle Creek as the two neighborhoods will be connected. I ask that you and your
team take a hard look at the proposal a perhaps look for a bit of a compromise. I am concerned for what the during
proposed density would mean for both current and potential future residents of both neighborhoods when we return to
more normal, non-COVID, patterns. I trust that your team has the expertise and best interest in all Carmel residents in
mind and will look upon and assess the proposed housing density of the Ambleside Point project with both perspectives.
