Subject: Help Us Preserve
Coyote Hills
Dear City Council members:
Coyote Hills is a treasure
that must be preserved. The mixed-use Patterson Ranch
development as currently planned will remove a buffer
zone for Coyote Hills Regional Park. In the current
Fremont General Plan, this site is designated an urban
reserve with a maximum of 266 housing units allowed.
If this proposal is
approved, there will be more traffic congestion and
pollution in an area that is already negatively impacted
by the recent Villa D'Este project and the 5,000 houses
already built in Ardenwood. The Patterson Ranch
development with its proposed 520 housing units will
lead to more overcrowding in our junior high and high
schools while providing no relief for those impacts.
The development as planned
will destroy the integrity of the site with its unique
plant, bird, and animal habitats. Coyote Hills, a scenic
gateway to Fremont, is a regional natural area enjoyed
by so many.
Over 70 percent of polled
voters do not want any development in front of Coyote
Hills. I am asking each city council member to preserve
Coyote
Hills for current and future generations by keeping the
site as
designated in the General Plan and minimizing the
footprint
west of Ardenwood Boulevard.
Sincerely,
[your name here]
