I do not want business property close to the residential.

I am signing this petition, because i am sick and tired of commercial business or gated communities trying to push their way into Rainbow Valley. We moved out here 25 years ago to get away from the city. If I want to buy anything, i have a Safeway and Walgreen store 5 minutes away. I do not want any commercial business in Rainbow Valley. If you let one in, you opened the flood gate. We are the next push of the pboenix city sprawl! We got to stop them while we still can! Please let's work together and keep Dollar General out of Rainbow Valley!

I'm signing because I moved here to get away from the city, bringing in one business will most likely cause a whole lot more to want to come here which means more traffic, people and litter! We don't want a dollar general here!!!

We already have stores within 8 miles of us and we do not need to change the way of life here in Tainbow. The sounds of nature is what the doctor order for some and you let one store in then come more and then goes nature.

Do not want any stores out here.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#9

I do not want local land rezoned. We do not need nor want stores this close to personal property.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#10

I do not want them in our community! Do not want it rezoned out here! We live in a rural area for a reason.

I moved my family from Glendale, AZ to Rainbow Valley in 2015. After living in the city for over 15 years, it was high time to move away and enjoy the fresh air, the clean air. I have a store less than 10 miles from me. I also have a gas station less than 10 miles away. I did not move out to the country for convenience.
Dollar General represents a low income community and an overall image of "poor people". My family, neighbors, and friends are far from this.
I believe that allowing them to rezone and build the Dollar General will only invite more crime, traffic accidents and city pollution. I really enjoy the fact it gets dark out here. Please do not allow this project to continue. The Phoenix metro area has lots of open space in the city. Please find another spot. We as a community have already told you NO once. Our answer isnt going to change.

We are a quite community if we wanted to live close to stores and the city we would, but as for myself I like the quite and bring able to see the stars at night from my house.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#19

Rezoning would open the door for commercial interest, and our lifestyle would be in jeopardy. We made a choice by moving out here to be away from all of this.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#21

I want my community to remain rural. We have a dairy and have moved before due to development/encroachment. Leave Rainbow Valley “off the map”!

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#22

Moved here 21 years ago, don't want businesses coming in.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#23

We do not want a store out here. There is no reason for a Dollar General in this rural area.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#24

I oppose the rezoning and commercial development of this property.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#25

We don't want a dollar General in our community! We are more than happy with how it is!

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#28

I commute 45 miles to my job because I want to live in a rural area. If I wanted commercial business (or a Dollar General) I'd move back to Glendale. Also, area not large enough to support store so will HAVE to bring in outside traffic to survive. Narrow bridge north of property plus outsiders will lead to more accidents. Thank you.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#29

I have lived in rainbow valley since 1968. I dont see a need for ANY commercial property in the area. we are close to shopping at EMR. I dont feel Dollar General can benefit our community in any way. I live out here for peace and quite and not to see stores on every corner. theres a dollar general 8 miles away if we feel the need to patronize them

(BUCKEYE, 2017-12-01)

#30

I'm signing this because I don't want industrialization in our town.. its safe to say that all of is who moved out here, was because we wanted to live in the back country. If we let this happen then soon enough we'll have more companies attempting to move here. We live here for the peace and quiet. Having all these stores will disrupt it.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#36

I don't want Dollar General in our neighborhood. We live in a quiet rural communitie and there's no need for this when Safeway is 5 minutes away.

(Rainbow valley, 2017-12-01)

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

I do NOT want a Dollar General in my neighborhood

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#41

I do not want a store in the area. Especially a Dollar General. Those are useless stores, without anything I would ever buy. Those type of stores do not attract quality people. Leave Rainbow Valley Alone. We have enough near us. Usefull things. Not a wasteful Dollar General.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#43

I don't believe a Dollar General is an appropriate fit for the Rainbow Valley community. Ours is a very rural community. People generally move to this community to get away from from businesses in general. I am currently out of state on family business and appreciate the opportunity to add my opinion to those of all of the other Rainbow Valley residents. The majority of which do not want a Dollar General in our community.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#44

I bought my house here because there was little traffic, I could ride my horse down these rural roads, and see every star in the sky. I knew I was safe in maintaining this rural lifestyle because of the zoning which prohibited commercial construction.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#45

I purchased this home to keep us away from the city and this will bring unwanted traffic

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

I do not want any commercial stores in the area.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

I don't want dollar general in our community!!!! There is no reason for a store to be out in our community!!!

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#53

I don't want to see the zoning changed.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#56

I don't want that extra traffic in our neighborhood when they can easily put it in the more rural area of Goodyear. Why put this here when there is nothing here,and we want to keep that way.

(Rainbow valley, 2017-12-01)

#57

I do not want any commercial buildings in rainbow valley. I want to keep it only rural residential, that I why I moved out here.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-01)

#62

I am a resident of the area and love the fact that doesn't have businesses, especially a dollar store

(Goodyear, 2017-12-02)

#65

I moved out here to get away from all of that, and raise my family out here. We've got a gas station and a grocery store within 4 miles, this is unnecessary and unwanted.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-02)

#66

We don't want Dallas General to lower the value of our home being so close to its store.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-02)

#67

I do not wish to have the zoning change nore do i wish to have a dollar general or any commercial business in my neighborhood

(Buckeye, 2017-12-02)

#68

I dont want that trash here and ill never shop there

(Buckeye, 2017-12-02)

#69

I grew up in a small town and hated when it started growing. It wasn't the same small little town anymore. We moved out here because it is so peaceful and it is a close community. We want it to stay the way it is

(Buckeye, 2017-12-02)

#70

I am signing this petition because I do not want Dollar General or any retail business to be zoned in our community. We pride ourselves on our rural lives away from the city and do not want the hard ship that comes with it. I am against the Dollar General or any retail zoning in Rainbow Valley, AZ.

(Rainbow, Valley, 2017-12-02)

I moves to rainbow to be away from corporations.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-02)

Ive only been in rv for a few months, but i moved here for country living! I dont want stores in my town if we let one store in whos to say we wont have a mini mall in a few years ? Were here for a reason! Keep corporate away!

(Buckeye, 2017-12-02)

#75

We want to stay a rural neighborhood with out commercial businesses.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-02)

Because we want to keep the natural beauty of what rainbow valley is

I do NOT want a Dollar Store in Rainbow Valley!!!!

(Rainbow Valley/Buckeye, 2017-12-02)

#85

I enjoy my country life and do not want have any type of store out here. I do not want any land rezoned to a commercial property.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-02)

#86

We do not want any commercial zoning here. We live here to get away from it all!

(Buckeye, 2017-12-02)

#87

We don't need a store out here we enjoy our country living

(Buckeye, 2017-12-02)

#88

We don't need it! There's already too many Dollar Trees and General's in Buckeye. If we want to go to one it's only like 10 minutes away in old town Buckeye. Plus, I DON'T shop at a Dollar General or Dollar Store anyway so there's one household who won't be purchasing from there.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-02)

#89

I moved out to this area to get away from all the commercial property that surrounded us in town. Our stance is the same now as it was when you tried not too long ago. Nothing has changed our views. Go further north towards MC85 where you will get more traffic, we do not want nor need your store in our community.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-02)

#91

I don’t want Dollar General in our neighborhood

(Buckeye, 2017-12-03)

#92

I moved here to get away from all the traffic and bright lights
Rainbow valley has a quality of life. You can't get in the city
You have stars in the sky at night. It's quite. And enjoy the sound of rooster and cows.
Safeway store is already developed where your store can blend in. Plenty of room on Estella parkway and elliot
You have no business in our community. Keep out

(Rainbow valley, 2017-12-03)

#95

I do not want that store here.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-03)

#96

Rezoning this parcel for commercial use of "any kind " of business would impose danger to our community by means of high traffic on this corner, crime and oppression due to the lack of revenue to sustain financial stability needed for a store such as Dollar General.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-03)

#97

Rainbow Valley has been my home for many many years and we are okay with it just the way it is. We do not need commercial properties taking over!

(Buckeye, 2017-12-03)

#100

I don't want a dollar general.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-03)

#102

I don't want any extra traffic in the neighborhood.
I don't want the light pollution blocking my view of the stars at night. Once there is one store then more will come and I don't want to see that happen.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-03)

#103

I do not feel this is the right type of store for this area and that the corner is not suitable for development. I will not patronize a Dollar General. Please consider an area on the north side of the Gila River for development.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-03)

#108

I don't want any businesses in Rainbow Valley because once you allow one in, many will follow and more crime comes. We want to keep our community small and safe.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-03)

#113

I opposed Dollar General and it being built in Rainbow Valley. We moved here for the seclusion, peace and harmony. There are plenty of stores within driving distance.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-04)

#115

I don't want to look at commercial development outside my windows

(buckeye, 2017-12-04)

#116

I do not want the store in our community. We are business free and want to stay that way.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-04)

#118

I'm not against progress or all growth. I'd just like to keep the corporations and franchises out.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-04)

#119

No one cares to have your stupid store there already one less then $15 min away and we don’t care we’ll drive that far.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-04)

#122

I want to keep Rainbow Vallley the way it is. I moved out here to get AWAY from the city, not move out here so that it could be brought back to me. My parents, my brother, and myself moved out here in 2002 and I have loved it the way it is! We don’t want city life brought out to the country life. I refuse to shop at a dollar general built out in an area where it isn’t wanted. It will become an empty abandoned building if brought out here.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-04)

#128

I don't want rainbow valley rezoned. To keep at any business.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-04)

#130

I do not want any property refined for commercial building in our community. We have a store 3 miles away from this location and do not need/want a store at this location.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-04)

#135

I don't want corporations in this area. People move out here specifically to get away from the city and all its problems. If we want to go shopping, we'll go into town to do so!

(Buckeye, 2017-12-05)

#138

Let’s begin growth with a park rather than a dollar general!

(Buckeye, 2017-12-05)

#139

I don’t want any commercial buildings in my community. I recently moved out here to get away from all that. There are plenty of business’ close by, including a Dollar General. Commercial property brings more traffic, noise and crime.

(Buckeye, 2017-12-05)

#144

This area is a housing area, and that's how we want to keep it. Small and friendly, not add traffic that is unnecessary. There is no market for this here.

(Rainbow Valley, 2017-12-11)

#146

It is a tacky store and completely unwanted in our area!

(buckeye, 2018-01-02)

#147

A Dollar General or any commercial property strip is out of character for this rural neighborhood. There are several discount options and existing commercial centers in close proximity without adding a location which will result in increased traffic congestion at a bottle-neck intersection along with other concerns related to commercial property. As a telescope enthusiast the introduction of commercial lighting in the area is an additional issue. Recent increases in property lighting due to what I have to assume are safety concerns is already an encroachment on night-sky activities and the amount of lighting to ensure safe evening / night operations of commercial activity will drastically increase the light pollution in surrounding neighborhoods.

(Buckeye, 2018-01-30)

#148

I do not want commercial shopping in the Rainbow Valley Community. This is our homes and we are all used to going in to town to do our shopping. We all know where there is a Dollar General Store is, if we want to shop there. I personally do not shop at those stores, but if I did it would not be in my neighborhood. I would personally never shop there simply because if is being forced upon us.This company has not sent out any surveys or letters to us to ask if we want that store in our neighborhood. I understand that over half of the residents here has signed the petition to not allow it here. Please everyone sign it.
