She noted the building has since been removed leaving the <br />183 open green space for twelve years. She thought the zoning has changed since the <br />184 application for that senior housing was done. She was surprised to get the notice in <br />185 the mail of this planned venture for a four-story apartment. She indicated this will <br />186 drastically change the neighborhood, her home, the amount of noise they experience <br />187 and wondered what kind of a sound barrier would be there. She indicated with this <br />188 tall of a building it will change the light of the house, yard. She noted her major <br />189 concerns would be the noise, traffic, parking and changes to the neighborhood, <br />190 evaluation of their home. <br />191 <br />192 Ms. Mary Erb, 1397 Sandhurst Drive, indicated she has lived in the area for twenty- <br />193 seven years and raised five children there. She noted she taught her children to ride <br />194 bikes on Sandhurst but today she would not advise that on her worst enemy. Traffic <br />195 as it is, is terrible and more will be added with this development. He main concern is <br />196 going to be noise and traffic. She thought this is pushing way to many people into a <br />197 small area. <br />198 <br />199 Mr. Phil Toconita, 1391 West Sandhurst Drive, explained he has lived there for fifty- <br />200 one years. He indicated the traffic is bad there already and some people do not stop at <br />201 the four way stop sign. There is a lot of speeding through the area as well. He <br />202 explained the parking from the current apartment building block the view as well <br />203 because there is not enough parking there and people park on the street. He agreed <br />204 that biking is also dangerous. <br />205 <br />206 Mr. Thomas Masanz, explained he lived across from this development. He noticed <br />207 that it showed Albert as a three-lane road but one of those lanes is a turn lane. He <br />208 thought this was too much. He agreed with everything that has been stated so far. <br />209 <br />210 Ms. Myra Toconita, 1391 West Sandhurst Drive, requested that a new traffic study be <br />211 conducted after all of the construction is complete in the area because that has altered <br />212 the number of vehicles that go by. She explained during the State Fair there is also <br />213 parking issues on the road. <br />214 <br />215 Mr. Mike Bilski, CEO North American Banking Company, 2230 Albert Street, <br />216 explained the changes the County has done to the road have eased the speed and the <br />217 four way stop sign and changing of the lanes have been fantastic. He explained he <br />218 has been at this location for twenty-three years and the neighborhood has taken great <br />219 care of their homes. He thought the apartment buildings that exist there already have <br />220 also done a great job taking care of the property. He thought all in all what is <br />221 proposed here is good for the City. He did not think it is going to cause adverse <br />222 consequences with parking. There are a lot of things that go on in the area and the <br />223 parking is really a minor problem. He thought this is a great development for the <br />224 corner. <br />225 <br />226 Chair Kimble closed the public hearing at 7:24 p.m. and recapped the resident <br />227 concerns. <br />228 <br />Page 4 of 13 <br /> <br />
