CITIZENS COMMENTS
Chairman Johnston opened the Citizens Participation.
Ms. Sandra Braswell, 207 Douglas Drive, Wylie, expressed concern for home value due
to the approval of zoning for the construction of RaceTrac, located on the corner of
Highway 78 and Brown. She expressed concern for the existing traffic and access to
Brown from her street due to the Wylie East High School and the Fire Trucks. This
doesn't just affect the home values of those living within 200 feet of the proposed
property for the Racetrac, but others that this effects in a negative way.
Ms. Mary Price, 209 Spence, Wylie, expressed concerned for additional traffic when
RaceTrac will be opened. She strongly recommended the Commission to deny the Site
Plan when presented, asking them to go to the other side of Highway 78 further down,
and not allow them at the corner of Highway 78 and Brown. She stated that she realizes
that the zoning was considered and approved already.
Chairman Johnston closed the Citizens Participation.
