Re: Clear Springs Estate
Dear Commissioner Baldwin:
Thank you for your letter informing me of the commissioner's court decision to reject the
property owner offer to agree to a ten percent tax increase on property located on the hill
on Hidden Acres road.
The property owners strongly disagree with the commissioner's decision and feel they
made an unwise decision.
We are only talking about three or four hundred feet going up the hill. This short road
would allow 13 lots to be developed and the new homes would generate a large sum of
revenue, which would benefit both the county and the property owners.
Because the property (13 lots) is not accessible, rendering the property valueless, we will
ask the appraisal district to value the property unusable, therefore having no tax value. I
have some very real concerns that should an emergency arise on the property,
emergency vehicles would not have access to the 13 lots. I know there are children
living in the area as well as adults that would be at risk should an accident occur.
We can not help but believe the Commissioner's court believed we were asking for the
entire Hidden Acres road paved. We are only concerned with the road from the bottom to
the top of the hill.
If there is a misunderstanding, the fault lies with me. I did not make myself clear. 1 would
appreciate it if you would again present our request to the Commissioner's Court for
approval.
I can not help but believe that any misunderstanding that is now corrected will present a
different view of the request.
Warmest regards,
