Thank you for inviting the public to observe the scoping meeting. I look forward to reviewing the documents that describe the project scope and the Draft EIR when they are published. I look forward to working with the EIR preparation contractor and the City staff to fully understand the envisioned Land Use and Zoning. For example, the meeting agenda speaks of a potential Hotel site, I assume that would not be located on Watson Lane. I can't confirm that from the provided agenda package as it does not provide that level of detail. I look forward to learning what is the envisioned zoning for the various parcels.
With the completion of the Devlin Road extension, Connecting Newel to Paoli Loop will encourage motorists to bypass downtown highway 29 congestion by shortcutting to Newel and then points south. I expect significantly more traffic on Paoli Loop from 3-6 PM every night as well as 6-9 in the morning if there is an accident on 29. I do understand the need to annex the neighborhood for the greater good of the community, but here will be an impact on the existing residents of the neighborhood.
While I support the annexation, I live on Watson Lane and do not want my site zoned for public use, preferring housing which is needed so badly. Please respond as to how certain areas will be zoned prior to annexation and how we can impact the decision.
