We are residents of
University Gardens (University
married housing) concerned
about the possibility of road
construction on the periphery
of our apartment complex.
Such construction is
apparently being considered as
an access route for the
Lambeth Field project. We
have presented a petition
protesting the road to Mr.
Sensbach, Director of
University Planning, and are
sending copies to President
Shannon, the City of
Charlottesville and others. We
hope that the rest of the
University community will
share our indignation.
The construction of this
road would create an
intolerable situation for many
residents of University
Gardens; surrounding us on all
sides by roads, destroying
many of the trees and grassy areas
and replacing them with buses
and dirt. We ask that you help
us oppose these plans and urge
the University to use one of
the alternate routes available to
them. We feel that the present
residents of University Gardens
should not be ignored for the
sake of the future convenience
of the residents of Lambeth
Field.
