 1 & 99 MAPLE STREET- FRANKLIN APARTMENTS Completed: 206 unit <br />apartment community on a 4 acre site. <br /> 1500 EL CAMINO REAL-VILLA MONTGOMERY Completed: 58 affordable <br />apartment units. <br /> <br />• Our neighborhood has already suffered through over 3 – 4 years of construction during <br />a time when we were confined during the pandemic and so were stuck with the noise, <br />trucks, and impeded access to our daily life routines. Opening the door to more high- <br />density housing makes no sense from an urban planning perspective. Since construction <br />has finished, we've experienced higher traffic and increased street parking. Adding the <br />prospect of traffic and other impacts from high density housing is just piling on. <br /> <br />• There are other areas in Redwood City that can be developed for Low-Income High- <br />Density Housing, and it doesn’t make sense to have it all clustered together in one area. <br />Our area can't continue to be the "go-to" for city projects. <br /> <br />• The study has not been done to understand the traffic/burdens that will impact having <br />more high-density housing will have on the traffic in our area. There is no parking being <br />provided for these 178 units. The neighborhood cannot support this number of cars. <br />Most likely all the residents will need cars to get to their jobs, although public <br />transportation is close – it does not connect to all potential jobsites. It is not <br />responsible for the Council to open the door to additional impacts on our neighborhood. <br />Our neighborhood should not be thrown under the bus just because they need to meet <br />a deadline. <br /> <br />• The developer should be required to show data from similar nearby projects what <br />percentage of residents have no vehicles? This neighborhood seems to be already <br />slammed with tons of vehicles. <br /> <br /> <br />
