Dear Ms. Soto,
g~J sl ~ ~
The purpose of this letter is to request an appeal to the conditional use permit issued Thursday July 26, 2011
by the Dublin Planning Commission, allowing Montessori Plus to open a school for 60 students located at
11500 Silvergate Drive. Listed below are a few of our many concerns.
According to City of Dublin zoning law, the applicant did not follow proper procedure when applying for the
conditional use permit.
1) Not all property owners within 300 feet were notified.
2} No signs were posted on or near the building in which the applicants plans to occupy.
Residents of Silvergate Dr., Dublin Green, and Wooden Ct. feel the planning commission is trying to rush this
permit through without proper notification to surrounding residents. The majority of Dublin residents attending
the meeting of 7/26/11 had only learned of this meeting two days beforehand. In addition, the Dublin City
Planning Commission has not performed a thorough job of researching this project, nor the impacts it will have
on our neighborhood. During the meeting of July 26, 2011 the members of the planning commission misstated
facts regarding the property located at 11900 Silvergate Dr.
As longtime Dublin Residents we feel that The City of Dublin Planning Commission has ignored our concerns.
We would like the opportunity to address the city council when all of the residents have been properly and
lawfully notified. We have questions and concerns related to noise, traffic, and safety. We do not feel that
locating a school for 60 students on this heavily populated corner where a 7111 store, and two office buildings
(housing 4 separate businesses) already exists, is a safe choice for the surrounding Dublin residents or the
students that plan to attend Montessori Plus in this new location.
Sincerely,
Residers#s of Dublin Green, Silvergate Drive and Woodren Court
