Wondering why anyone would vote in favor of this
and if they actually live here in Middlebury.
·
I am in favor of this type of development in a
proper location, industrial park!!! Brings tax revenue with very low impact on
school and other community services taxing authorities. I would not be in favor
of the location currently proposed as I understand it to be.
o
Response: hopefully it will be stopped at the
proposed location and directed to a more suitable local

Recently it takes like 20 min to get through the
light in Middlebury. When there’s an accident on 84 it takes double. Imagine
what traffic would be like with all of the big trucks?! No thanks. I’ll gladly
pay our taxes
o
Response: Or they’ll be passing Pomperaug. That
intersection is a disaster. Increased traffic on either side isn’t beneficial
to anyone who lives here
·
For a town that won’t approve a drive through on
a business, why would we allow this much of a disturbance to local
traffic/life? I can’t imagine one positive outcome that this will bring to
town.
·
A BIG NO, less taxes at the cost of
kid’s/neighborhood safety is not worth [it]
·
Btw..where would such a building or complex even
go..??? Is there an industrial park I am not aware of
o
Response: the Timex headquarters property on
Christian Road. It would sit between Avalon Farms and Benson Woods. Sadly not
in an industrial park where something of this scale belongs but between two
residential neighborhoods.
§ Response: just don't
see that location supporting a complex like that..traffic, road width for
trucks etc..
