EXHIBITS: 1 -15 Previously Submitted
16 Letter from Mort Sherin (five pages), received September 21,
2009.
REMARKS:
Attached is a letter from a concerned neighbor regarding 1) a potential nuisance to their house due to the
proposed roadway to and from the development being directly in front of their house and 2) concern of
how access to the middle property, which is not part of the proposed PD, will be accessed (Exhibit 16).
As stated in the original report, as vehicles leave the subject site and approach Placer Oaks Road when it
is dark, their headlights could illuminate the existing residence to the north of the project street at Placer
Oaks Road. Realigiunent of the project street westward at this intersection is possible but would impact a
large oalc tree. If the Commission finds merit in removing the tree, the applicant is willing to realign the
road.
As for the potential for future development to the middle property which is part of the existing PD, the
proposed development is designed to not allow future connection to this property.

Re: Placer ®aks 9 borne Subdivision.
®ear Ms. Gaily:
This letter is written to express eur ce~rtcerrts artd alisapproval ®f the subcfivisi®n as
currently proposed.
®ur ®ther issue is that n®w ®rrly of ~e td~ree undevel parcels ®f land are
involved. What happens t® the remaining two- acre parcel that is land locked? In the
future when this parcel is considered for devel®pr~ent, what is to prevent additional
trafFc fr®m that land I®cked rcel ®nt® Ala r Oaks?
We respectfully request that the planning c®mrnissioners visit our property before
making any recorrrmendati®n on this prop®sal.
Sincerely,
Morton S. Sherin
Alba Shedn
