Subject: EXTERNAL Proposed Tronstad Rd. development
Dear Council, I am a Silverbrook Estates resident. I live across from the Tronstad Rd. intersection
with highway 93. 1 am opposed to the potential new subdivision on Tronstad. The additional traffic on
Tronstad, Whitefish Stage, highway 93, not to mention the snarl it would create at the already
congested Reserve and Whitefish Stage intersection would be a disaster. More rural development
would further diminish what draws people here in the first place. The notion that any of those homes
would be "affordable" is laughable. The increase in property taxes would quickly make any such
home unaffordable. Any such development would immediately necessitate a traffic light as well. I'm
also unclear why with an increased population in the valley property tax load for services and schools
is not shared rather than increased.
Respectfully, Todd Linder
