The NUMBER ONE thing that we want you all to hear from us today is that this proposed USR DOES NOT FIT IN THIS AREA IN ANY CAPACITY. Quokka Investment is asking you to allow a commercial trucking operation to take hold in the middle of not only a very agricultural area but in the middle of $SOOK+ homes. We are raising families here, growing crops, and taking care of livestock. We bought our agricultural properties for these purposes not for a commercial one. While we do understand that growth is necessary we believe that the agricultural land and lifestyle should be preserved to maintain residential well being in this specific area.

D D Most if not all of the homes (with attached acreages) have values of $500K+. D D Adding a commercial trucking operation in the midst of these beautiful homes will be devastating to future property values. D D People are attracted to our area for the nice peaceful quiet country living. We enjoy mountain views, starry nights, city lights, and beautiful wildlife. This commercial operation would no longer allow for that attraction. Planning Committees Concerns D D Commissioner I lolland indicated his agreement with the fact that this is inconsistent with the current landscape and neighborhood. D D Commissioner Stille cited section 23-2-220 indicating that he was concerned with future development. We strongly agree with this and are unsure of Mr. Mumm's full intentions. Mr. Mumm will not live or be onsite to oversee day to day operations or compliance. His brother in law has voiced a need to expand the proposed USR operations if approved to sustain their income. He indicated that this may mean additional businesses such as a machine shop on the premises. DO Commissioner Wailes is concerned with the narrow corridor and with having residential properties tightly tucked in on both sides of the proposed location. We would suggest that additional traffic studies be completed. Negative Impacts DO Dust and road issues: CR 66 already has significant grading and dust issues. This operation would significantly increase this issue. There will be additional maintenance required to current resident vehicles due to wash boarding. The excessive dust will negatively affect livestock and children playing outside. During rain and moisture the road will have ruts which could cause unsafe travel. There are currently narrow bridges on either side of this property and a hill that can inhibit a clear sight of view. DO Traffic: CR 66 is a non -paved county road with fairly minimal traffic other than the current residents. We are not talking about just adding a few more vehicles here. If approved we are talking about 10 heavy semi trucks and trailers as well as an additional 5 pickup trucks as well as office staff vehicles making a minimum of 2 trips up and down every day; if not more! DO Trash: We are in an open space where the wind blows often. All of 1l_�7+Lr�7YL1;1f� A Al'x] 43A:7 I the neighboring homes take pride in the appearance of our properties. We all make sure to clean up trash from our fence lines, keeps weeds down and maintain a nice appearance. We are worried about how a commercial trucking company would maintain and care for their area. We have already noticed that they have large amounts of trash collecting in their fence.

It's not a local company and has no vested interest in our small farming community. It is our understanding that the owner of the company will not reside on the property nor be responsible for the maintenance of the property. This is obviously problematic. DO We are concerned with who and which company or companies will actually I be residing at this Investment Property. For how lone? Who will be next? Which company will be "sharinc" the lease with the land remediation business? D D Per the permit, the current investment range is 1 to 5 acres. If this USR passes how easy are the next steps to expand and use additional acreage or possibly the full 47 acres in the future? DO Once a USR is in place the acreage could be sold with ease to a new company/investor in the commercial arena. Safety D D I liring practices (Background Checks, what is their "standard") D D We are raising families here and employees change frequently, how can they ensure our safety in the ever rotating employment? DU EMOD Rating for the company/companies leasing the property? DO What are the DOT numbers? D D Is the fleet size what they put in the permit? DO How long have they been in service? D 0 How will we confirm which company has ownership? Mitigation if passed 0 U Pursuant to Sec 23-2-240 Buffering or screening of the proposed use from adjacent properties may be required in order to make the determination that the proposed use is compatible with the surrounding uses. Buffering or screening may be accomplished through a combination of berming, landscaping and fencing. We would like to include no chain link fences be visible from the road and that trees at a minimum starting height of 6 feet be planted around the visible perimeter 0 U Road grading would need to occur on a weekly basis. Road maintenance would need to include dust mitigation. If the road degrades severely due to the increase in commercial trucks than the road should be paved. No potential for future expansion of the USR shall be permitted. 0 o Pursuant to Sec. 23-2-250 Sources of light, including light from high -temp processings such as combustion or welding, shall be shielded so that light rays will not shine directly onto adjacent properties where such would cause a nuisance or interfere with the use on the adjacent properties; and neither direct or reflected light from any light source may create a traffic hazard to operators of motor vehicles on public or private streets and no colored lights may be used which may be confused with or construed as traffic control devices. We would like to also include verbiage that there shall be no light towers or generators and that light and noise pollution only be permitted during listed "hours of operation" (7AM-5PM - no nights or weekends).
