06/14/17 <br />To Whom It May Concern, <br />In regards to project file number: CU -17-00003, Clerf Mining Expansion. <br />My name is Chelsea Wagner and I reside at 1308 Carroll Rd. I am writing this letter to oppose <br />the increase of the mining in the area of Clerf Pit and the effect it will have on Carroll Rd. <br />I bought my home in October of 2015. I have noticed since living on Carroll Rd that dump <br />trucks, semis and cars drive well over 50 mph and at all hours of the day. I enjoy riding my <br />horses outside and often times down the road on Carroll to a friend's house, Allison Campbell, to <br />use her arena. Typically I ride between 6:00 pm and 9:00 pm. On almost every occasion I have <br />rode, I have had one to many close encounters with almost getting hit by a car or semi -truck. The <br />cars who aren't speeding tend to slow down and be courteous but the ones who are already <br />speeding just fly on by. It is scary and makes me question my safety when I choose to ride my <br />horse away from the house. The speed limit on Carroll Rd is 50 mph, which most people drive <br />well over, is still too fast There are some blind spots as a driver where you just can't see far <br />enough ahead. <br />The increase in truck traffic also has caused an increase in noise starting as early sometimes at <br />6:30 am to well over 9:00 pm. Many times I am woken up while sleeping in the morning from <br />the loud noise to hearing the trucks over brushing my teeth and music playing. Increasing the <br />truck traffic will only make it worse. <br />The other concern is that Carroll Rd wasn't designed to have heavy trucks driving back and forth <br />on it multiple times a day. It was meant for farmers/ranchers to move equipment as well as the <br />average person to get to and from home. <br />Thank you for your time <br />Sincerely, <br />Chelsea Wagner <br />
