Moved to Carpenter Road for space and privacy; says the split would add density, worsen drainage, require removing mature trees, and hurt home values. Opposed.

Planning Commission — August 12, 2026 · 0:00 →Water management is her top worry — water already crosses Carpenter Road toward her property, and excavation could make it worse. Asked how the applicant would handle the water.
Planning Commission — August 12, 2026 · 0:00 →Water already reaches his driveway; worried about another large house behind his backyard. Thinks the property should stay as-is, though he credited the owner's upkeep.
Planning Commission — August 12, 2026 · 0:00 →The applicant and property owner responded to concerns: he enlarged the lot per earlier feedback, will widen the shared driveway to 22 feet, plans an access and maintenance agreement, and plans a ~3,000 sq ft two-story house.
