We, the undersigned property owners, hereby

the real value of real property in our community.
2. Our community is _________ in nature and to
permit a part of such area to be used for _________ purposes, and particularly
for _________ would violate the spirit of the zoning ordinances, impair public
safety and welfare, and would do substantial injustice not only to the owners
of properties immediately adjacent to the proposed site, but to the owners in
the entire neighborhood.
3. The vehicular traffic which is necessarily a part
of a _________[proposed variance] will add to the already heavy traffic

Wherefore, we respectfully ask that the application
be denied.
