high speeds and tend not to slow down. This proposal will also result in an especially increased safety risk at <br />the beginning of our road as the amount of cars pulling in increases. <br />There has been discussion about widening the road to accommodate the increased traffic. Our family <br />also has concerns about that. When we purchased our home close to 10 years ago, we planted fruit trees, berry <br />bushes, and gardens in our yard. Much of this is close to the road and would be destroyed if our yard were to be <br />paved over to create the wider street: I don't know anyone on our street who would want to give up a portion of <br />their yard to widen the street, especially since as the street is now, that is not necessary. <br />The proposed development is set to be at the end of Oakleigh Lane. If approved as proposed, the street <br />and neighborhood community that makes up Oakleigh Lane will become a throughway to accommodate its <br />residents. As a result, the proposed development does not take on the same risks and negative impacts that my <br />family and the rest of the residents of Oakleigh Lane have to shoulder. <br />Another concern about the zoning change if it is approved, is that if the co-housing proposal falls <br />through, any other developer can purchase the land and develop condos on it since the zoning was changed (if <br />passed). It's a concern for our street and the larger impact that would have on the Greenway. <br />Once again, I urge you to not approve this zoning change proposal. Thank you. <br />Sincerely, <br />Jackie Marlette <br />19 Oakleigh In <br />Eugene OR 97404 <br />1053 <br />
