Stop Heathrow Land Development from Devaluing Barclay Place
1 Nov 2006
As you may be aware, Heathrow Land Development is seeking to remove the racquet club and replace it with 74 single family homes that will abut our fence line. In addition, they are seeking to remove the current Heathrow entrance and Tournament Drive. This will effectively remove Barclay Place from the Heathrow "family".
As of the latest notification of their plans, HLD is planning to put our entrance immediately outside of our gate. Cars exiting Barclay Place would have a right turn only exit, having no left turn cut-through in the median. This would force us to turn right and do a U-turn to access any point east on Lake Mary Blvd.
Barclay Place currently owns a one-third interest in the current entrance and roadway. HLD is seeking to force us to relinquish that. We have resisted their efforts thus far as we feel that we derive a higher property value being directly associated with the Heathrow community.
We need your help.
HLD will be presenting a request to rezone the Racquet Club at to the Board of County Commissioners on December 12 at 1:30 p.m.. Yes, that is correct - 1:30 p.m. As you may know, the only way to defeat such action is to show up – in numbers.
Update: The meeting will be held at:
Seminole County Services Building
1101 E. First St. #1028
Sanford, Florida
TheP&Z Board - after listening to numerous misrepresentations - has made a recommendation to approve. The senior planner reviewing the project for Seminole County has indicated his positive support for the development.
This project could significantly affect your property values and we urge you to make time on your schedule to attend this meeting.
As Seminole County only notified 5 owners, we are obtaining a copy of the notice and will be distributing it to all owners and residents. It will also be posted on our website, www.barclayplace-heathrow.com. Even your tenants can have a voice to help us stave off this detrimental development.
