Subject: Proposed 4302 Ford Rd. Residential Project
To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing to you regarding the proposed rezoning to make room for a new residential site near Ford
Rd. Foremost, I’m unclear why there is a need to rezone this property for residential units?
In addition I’m reading through many e-mails in the Port Street e-mail thread and the following concerns
echo mine as well ~
1. Safety issues with regard to vehicles coming and going from the new residential area.
2. More noise than was there before as currently this zoning does not call for high density housing.
3. Lack of clarity with regard to what actually will be developed on this property (ie apartments or
condos)
4. Appears to be an insufficient amount of parking available for residents and guests, which will
ultimately lead to street parking.
5. I’m also reading that the developer is saying this project will help the community by not having
to look at the "unattractive & unsightly" AT&T building? I’m quite sure we’d rather look at that then
look at another development of condos/apartments.
I’m very opposed to moving forward with this project, certainly not until there has been more research
done on the impact of this proposal to our community.
I know I’m not alone in my concerns, thank you in advance for your thoughtful consideration on this
issue.
