| UPDATED June 1st, 2009 Rumors have been circulating that STAR is no longer interested in Solon's rezoning issues. These rumors are FALSE! Star would like to affirm to the residents of Solon that we are still very much concerned as well as involved in Solon's re-zoning issues. Please check back for further updates. |

| STAR- Solon Taxpayers Against Rezoning
We are a group of Solon residents who are providing information about Issue 16 to assist voters in making an informed decision. Issue 16 is an initiative petition by seeking to rezone approximately 32 acres of property off of Hawthorn Parkway from its current classification of R-1-D Single Family Residential District to the R-3-B Senior Citizen District. We feel that changing the zoning from 1 home per acre (R-1-D) to up to 10 units per acre ( R-3-B) is too great of a change for Solon. We believe this could also set a dangerous precedent for future development of the adjacent Hawthorn Valley Golf Course that consists of an additional 170 acres. This could also impact and set precedent for future properties zoned R-1-D throughout the city. We urge you to VOTE "No" on Issue 16 on May 8th to keep the 1 acre zoning. |
