I am concerned about increase traffic on <br />residential side streets ( R-9.8650, C-1, F-8.1.1-8.1.4, F-9 lack of safe crossing for pedestrians and cyclists ( R-9.8650-C1, <br />F-9, G-2.), lack of refuges for vehicles entering/ leaving Hillary at 31st avenue ( R-9.8650-C1, F-8, 9, 10.), and the fact that <br />the study for traffic was not done at the busiest hours (R-9.8650-F4.1.1, 2, 4, 5, 6-F-4.4.9-F-5.1). I would prefer that the <br />apartments have less units to decrease the amount of traffic in the neighborhood as it is already a pretty busy road (R- <br />9.8650-A). Although I prefer 3 stories over 5 1 think that 2 is more fitting. All the other apartments in the area are two <br />stories tall and it would be out of place to have anything over that. A personal concern of mine is the visual appeal of the <br />new apartments. I'm hoping that they aren't going to look like the new apartment buildings on franklin blvd. and <br />downtown. Thank you for taking the time to look the neighborhoods concerns. <br />Sent from my iPhone <br />
