Subject: objection Re 900 King street senior building
Hi Officers,
I’m writing this letter to say that I don’t like the idea of building the senior building right beside the Blind
Brook Middle school. It will ruin the reputation of the school—which we are so proud of and attracts
most of the parents living here right now.
First of all, the kids won’t be safe walking to their homes anymore. The senior building ask for lots of
services including dog walkers, home cleaners, nurses and so on. These people could come from
anywhere. The kids will be exposed to them, especially for the kids living in the Arbors, the kids
WALKING home from school, and the kids who goes to the Arbors to have playdates. IT WILL BE
SUPER UNSAFE!!! If any bad thing happened just once, the reputation of the school will be ruined
forever...
Second of all, the traffic will be terrible. You can imagine at least 3 times of traffic in the morning and
after school time(every senior family averagely asks for 5 more cars coming to serve them). The
parents will complains a lot!!!!! Plus, isn’t it important to have the kids get to school on time?
Thirdly, the beauty of our school environment!!!! If the senior building will ask for taking all the beautiful
trees around it out can you imagine what that look like???????????????????
In a word, the good school reputation is the key to let “Rye Brook” stand out, it is not smart idea to risk
it. People come to Rye Brook, buy expensive houses, and pay high taxes to go to school!!!!!! I don’t
know why the down-sizers would come to such an expensive place to just lay down on their bed every
day…I bet the houses can not be rent out. Most of them will be empty...
PLEASE BE SMART LEADERS, BUILDING SOMETHING GOOD BESIDE THE SCHOOL!DO NOT
RUIN IT!!!!!!!
Thanks a lot,
a resident of Rye Brook,
