Re:Palm Springs Country Club Golf Course
case M 5.1119-PD 330
Dear Mr. Ewing,
On February 911h, 2007, 1 attended a local resident meeting that discussed the potential rezoning and
development of the land currently known as"The Palm Springs Country Club Golf Course".
I purchase my home at 2040 Joyce Drive In the latter months of 2004.and as you will see on the enclosed
property detail, it was clearly represented as a fully renovated home"ON"The Palm Springs Country Club Golf
Course. Seemingly,within a few months of my ownership of the 2040 Joyce Drive property,the care for and
condition of the golf course began to deteriorate,with rumors surfacing regarding the uncertain fate of"The
Palm Springs Country Club Golf Course"
I Could trouble you with ongoing reasons why the rezoning and development of some 250 residences would
adversely affect_.. not only my property,but all surrounding properties along the golf course, as well as the the
entire residential neighborhood of Deseit Park Estates, and the surrounding areas... however. I am confident
you are well aware of the many reasons for opposition, as well as why the existing area residents view this
change and potential development as very unfavorable.
The impact of increasing the density of living in this area will deteriorate the quality of life,obstruct open
views, congest roadways, raise levels of noise, all the while ... seemingly only to benefit Mr.Burnett,the owner
and intended developer of this land. I question how rezoning can be aCCCmplished without the consent of
those of us most obviously affected by the loss of what Is now open land space, which is presently zoned for
use as an 18 hole golf course.
1 am strongly In opposition to the land being rezoned, and for any use other then haw it was represented to
me. Inclusive in Its representation was the City of Palm Springs,the setters of 2340 Joyce Drive,the involved
representing Real'Estate agents, as well as both the listing seller and buyer Reai Estate companies involved
with my purchase in 2004.
1 will be forwarding this letter on to other involved and Interested parties. I look forward to hearing from your
office, and request that you keep me informed as progress is made toward a final determination on this matter.
Respectfully,
Roger A. Case
