You know very well that those <br />apartments will be filled mostly with adults, probably students, rather than two car families with children. The <br />City already allows developers to build fewer parking spaces than is needed by a family with two adults. At the <br />very least, the City should not approve the waiver the developer has requested for fewer parking spaces <br />than required by code. <br />Because of this massive development, our neighborhood will soon look like the University neighborhoods with <br />four cars per apartment trying to find parking on the nearby streets. That creates hazardous driving conditions, a <br />parking nightmare for nearby residents and bicycling hazards that Eugene residents should NOT have to deal <br />with. <br />Stop ruining our neighborhoods with massive developments that are allowed to have parking spaces for only a <br />small portion of the number of cars the residents of these apartments will obviously have. <br />Newt Chapin <br />
