RE: Indian Creek Parkway Road Elevation & Expansion

 

Dear Commissioner Marcus:

 

As a resident of The Hamptons at Maplewood Homeowners Association, Inc. for these past ____years, I am requesting that you intercede on behalf of the residents of this community and citizens of Palm Beach County, in obtaining financial assistance from the County for improvements needed along the Association perimeter wall adjacent to Indian Creek Parkway.

 

Due to the road expansion and elevation project (3-4 feet from current levels) orchestrated by Palm Beach County, the privacy and property values of the residents adjacent to this roadway are in serious jeopardy.  Plans have been formulated to increase the height of our privacy wall by two feet, along with the installation of an additional landscaping buffer across from Greenway Drive and Mallory Blvd. (key intersections of this roadway which will be dramatically elevated from the existing surface road).

 

The plans to extend the concrete wall and install additional landscaping are an extraordinary expense that should not be levied against a handful of homeowners whose homes abut this roadway and who, through no fault of theirs, will be exposed to a great deal of traffic noise and loss of privacy due to the extent of the road elevation. 

 

Please consider this request for financial support which is needed by the residents of the Hamptons as a result of this Country road project.

 

Sincerely,
