As a developer, I question the clos,enes,s, to that inters,ection. 'Also., 28 homes, <br />will caus,e excessive traffic on los,ephine which is only a two lane road. <br />As I have looked at traffic studies,, residential creates, even more traffic then some <br />commercial developments,. <br />I do not see the logic in using an entrance to this development off of los,ephine which is two <br />lanes, while Cty. Rd C2 was designed as a thru fare to Lexington. <br />I believe a traffic study is needed and that the plan be changed to have Cty Rd C-2 as the <br />entrance to this development. A traffic study will show that C-2 is the best way to control <br />conges,tion. Based on the traffic that C-2 will generate., there would also need a signalized <br />intersection at C-2 and Lexington. <br />Josephine Rd was not constructed as a transitional road from C-2 to Lexington. The original <br />plan was to have C-2 as the main road due to the fact that is goes, all the way to Snelling <br />Ave and beyond. You can see this in the old plans, and the way that C-2 was, constructed. <br />I would ask that a traffic study be done on both roads, to see which one is the best <br />alternative. If a special deal was made by the city and the developer of the Apartments, and <br />T'ownhous,es, then it should be rescinded as it did not meet the original plans, for this road <br />and special favors, were made to get this project done at the expense of those who live on <br />Josephine Rd. <br />T'hats, for you time, I will see you tomorrow night at the planning commis,s,ion meeting <br />Wendell R.
