Hi Bric and Tony,
My husband and I own a home in Jackson’s Grant. We are fortunately on the other side of the neighborhood from JG
Village as we have concerns about the impacts of this new community on ours.
My husband and I are both in medicine, working at Riley to care for surgical pa?ents. We have 2 younger children and
one on the way, due in May. I present this informa?on to you because while some of our board members may try to
restrict children’s ac?vi?es for personal reasons, we are 100% suppor?ve of this younger popula?on. Which is exactly
why we are NOT in favor of the daycare. The traffic through our neighborhood, at the roundabout, and the spillover we
will inevitably encounter from an addi?onal 160 daycare kids plus workers will be detrimental to all of our JG residents
and especially our kids. When spring mill or 116th is blocked off, JG is used as a thoroughfare. Watching people who
don’t live here speed through the neighborhood as my toddler walks to our park is just terrifying. When my husband is
on call and leaves our home trying to get to riley in a ?mely manner only to encounter traffic before he ever hits
meridian is the exact opposite reason that we purchased here.
We love our kids. We will need childcare for this baby due in May. However, I s?ll don’t want a daycare in my
neighborhood.
Thank you,
Lauren & Alex Serafin
