parking

They are single car garages...how many people in 2 bedroom townhomes do you think will have only one car? Can't wait to add another 16 cars worth of street parking!! Also, this construction will begin around the same time that they bring Jackson Rd. down to a single lane in each direction with a left-turn lane down the middle. Odds are good that the additional traffic will hustle down Abbott (no stop signs) to avoid the speed bumps on Glendale & enter the 2 lane zone that begins from Virginia/Jackson toward downtown. The MDOT study was completed before the proposed building project. Another concern I have is that of permeable surfaces. We are going to lose an orchard (fairly permeable) and gain rooftops and concrete driveways (impermeable). There is no proposed drainage catchment for the site, and I sit at the lowest part of the street:) See you at the meeting!!!! Gretchen Hahn
