e e :'2. "'HAT WILL BE THE EFFECT OF THE PROPOSED LAND USE ON THE HEALTH. SAFETY. AND WELFARE OF THE OCCUPANTS OF SURROUNDING LA..'fDS? The subject property is bounded fOT all intents and purposes on all sjdes fOT uses other than single family residential. The development of this piece of property will enhance the adjacent land uses and should act as a catalyst in the developm~nt of the remaining vacant co=mercial and business zoned property. In the development of our site. we have located parking areas adjacent to the school parking area to the east and the church I s parking lot to the north. and screened OUT site from the commercial property to the south and west with additional parking (both with garages and open spaces). Our townhouse Tesidential units that aTe adjacent to the east property line face the grass playground of tbe school occupying that property. We have located the seven-story elderly building adja."nt to Snelling Avenue on which commercial/business property front both to the north and south of our site. 13. WHAT WILL BE THE EFFECT ON EXISTING AND ANTICIPATED TRAFFIC CONDITIONS, INCLUDING PARKING FACILITIES ON ADJACENT STREETS? The proposed development of the subject property is such that any traffic generated from within will all be directed to Snelling Avenue. where access to the property presently exists in the form of a crossing of the median on Snelling Avenue. No access or egress is planned along the north. east or south PTOputy line. All parking for the develop~nt will be on the site ~ith no on-street parking available to the residents. 14. WHAT WILL BE THE EHECT ON PROPERTY VALUE IN THE SURROUNDIN(' AREA? The immediate land uses in the area are predominantly business or eommercial uses. The remaining property is presently vacant and zoned for business or com=ercial uses. A cevclopment of this size and scope can only enhance the values of the presently vacant land and should create a higher value for the eXisting business and comnercial uses. It will not affect the public uses (i.e.. church and school) located to the north and east respectively. Since it is somewhat removed from the single family land uses. it will not affect the property values in those areas other than to increase the value of the single family.
