The agenda lists this as Commission District 5. I believe it is Commission District 8. If you would, please correct it on the agenda.

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing as a concerned resident of East Emory Rd regarding the proposed duplex development. While I understand and appreciate the city's efforts to support housing growth, I respectfully ask that the city reconsider approving new high-density construction on this particular stretch of road.
East Emory is already experiencing significant traffic congestion especially during peak hours. Adding additional housing units would likely worsen these conditions, impacting not only residents' safety and quality of life but also emergency vehicle access.
I would greatly appreciate it if the city could explore alternative sites for increased housing density in areas with better infrastructure capacity or transit access.
Thank you for your time and for considering the community's perspective on this matter.

This intersection is incredibly dangerous, and it needs to be addressed before adding more traffic. It would be irresponsible to our community to allow this before addressing the dangers of this intersection. Thank you!

I would strongly advise against adding any more housing to this intersection. I pick up my niece and nephew around the corner off of the school bus. There are accidents that occur at this intersection all of the time, and it would be highly unsafe to add more people trying to come off of that road at that point

They should be required to put a red light in at brown gap and Emory. Look at the wreck reports in the area. Emory rd is over crowded with no plans to widen Emory in your 5 year plans.

I oppose residential development in the proposed area due to numerous safety traffic concerns.

Please put a red light at Brown Gap and Emory. It's a dangerous and narrow intersection that should be widened in a way that will support a future 4 lane Emory road. I grew up there since 1995 and it's always been dangerous, but to accommodate recent existing growth as well as future growth improvements have to be made!
Thank you for your consideration,
Tucker H.

As the property owner at the adjacent address on Rondo Drive. I much prefer only a single building. One duplex is fine, but not two duplexes. Thank you for your kind consideration.

My husband and I live with our two small children in the house next to this property. This will be the second time we have had to deal with someone wanting to take this tiny property and put a duplex on it. I would rather a single family home be put onto the property for a number of reasons. That property is small and Rondo Rd is already congested with people coming and going all day. Then, when you add the school traffic on top of that, its horrible. There are times when we already have a hard enough time getting into our driveway, adding 2 more families to this road will only add to the nightmare. If a single family home is out of the question, we would rather see the duplex be a single level. We have a privacy fence for our children to be able to play in the backyard, having a two story duplex next to us with 13 windows facing our house takes away from ours and our childrens privacy. We have a single story duplex on Rondo Rd that has been well maintained and goes with the character of the neighborhood. Not a single person that lives nearby has a bad thing to say about it. I would also urge the committee to consider the character of the neighborhood when making their decisions.
