I do not support this project. As Durham grows at an incredible rate, we must not squander the things that make
Durham such a great place to live and attract so many residents in the first place. Easy access to nature and
green spaces are a huge part of what makes Durham an enjoyable, livable city. The Eno River is an integral part
of Durham, as is West Point on the Eno. This project would take some of that away from existing Durham
residents, as well as those moving here.
This project is NOT in the Public Interest of Durham residents or the environment. I believe a Public Hearing
should be required for this development. It needs much a broader and well -publicized period of public feed back
than this Public Notice Comment Form. A project of this scale that impacts one of Durham's natural public
spaces in such a profound way deserves to be brought to the public's attention better than it has been, and
deserves a healthy round of public input.
I also believe that the Save Black Meadow Ridge group has raised many concerns that I share, and I believe
each point being raised by this group needs more thorough investigation, and would appreciate a response that
reflects the vetting of those concerns.
This is a project that should be deemed to have a significant public Impact and likely needs greater oversight
through a different permit type and higher level of review.
Thank you for your consideration,
