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]
