February 13, 2005 <br />Delta County Planning Department <br />Delta County Courthouse <br />501 Palmer St. <br />Delta, CO 81416 <br />To Whom It May Concern: <br />.,m,~..~,w~~y <br />Date Received <br />a~ 7-o S <br />~:_ ~ <br />It has been brought to my attention that Benson Brothers has purchased the quarry <br />property within the last six months from Richazd Beldon. I understand Benson Brothers <br />Red Canyon has submitted for rock quarry application (SDOS-001). I am asking that the <br />application be DENIED. <br />Attached is a list of reasons for the application to be DENIED. All theses reasons will <br />have an impact on my living neaz a quarry or any other developments. <br />I want to add to the list, I have lived at 18671 Wazd Creek Road since December 7, 1997. <br />I moved from Denver to Coalby Canyon to get away from the congestion of heavy traffic, <br />noise, pollution and etc., to live in a quiet, peaceful, non-polluted area and etc. If Benson <br />Brothers is granted the permit for the quarry or any other developments, I will not be able <br />to enjoy the reasons I moved here for. They will be taking away my way of living. <br />I am hearing impaired and have worn hearing aids since I was a young child. Being <br />hearing impaired, I have no sense of direction from where the sound is traveling. I live on <br />a curve and take many walks from my home along Wazd Creek Road. Trucks from Hosea <br />Richards Excavating business will travel Wazd Creek Road with their jake break on or off <br />and I can't tell where the noise is coming from until it is right on me. With the <br />development of the quarry, 5 semi trucks per day could be 30 trips a day or more traveling <br />north and south on Ward Creek Road. Plus other contractors going in and out. <br />I will not be able to walk Ward Creek Road anymore because of safety reasons. <br />When Richazd Beldon runs the rock crusher during the day and well into the late hours of <br />the night, I can heaz the noise. There are many times I will remove my aids for some <br />peace, but then, I miss the phone calls and can't listen to the TV or Radio. And the noise <br />is replaced with vibrations thru the ground. Either way my way of life is violated. <br />I am asking Delta County Planning Department to DENY the application. <br />Sincerelyn, ~-, ~p~ <br />Lmda Oden <br />18671 Ward Creek Road <br />
