I offer the following <br /> comments: <br /> TRAFFIC <br /> Traffic along Hwy. 88 has become increasingly heavy and dangerous during morning and <br /> evening rush hour and on weekends and holidays. Attempting to cross traffic to make a left turn <br /> from Sierra heading east on 88 is difficult and often dangerous. In addition, the traffic signal <br /> installed at Tully/88 often backs up vehicles well beyond Sierra Drive during peak traffic flows. <br /> With the proposed project, I am conc:emed that the additional left tush movements for new <br /> residents heading toward Stockton (heading west)will worsen an already unsafe condition at this <br /> intersection. <br /> OAK TREES <br /> Lots 8 through 20 and 144 have Oak trees on them. Will the project proponent be required to <br /> preserve those that are in healthy or moderately healthy condition? Has an Arborist's report been <br /> prepared? How many of the existing trees will be removed to construct the backyard fence or for <br /> foundation pad construction for these lots? <br /> OPEN SPACE <br /> With an increase in population in our community little has been done to provide any public open <br /> space. This subdivision will generate approximately 500 residents. Enforceable by the <br /> Subdivision Map Act, typically most public agencies require at least three(3)acres of park land <br /> Per 1000 people. Will the County require that this project provide for its own open space needs? <br /> At 3 acres per 1000 a subdivision of this size typically would have to dedicate and improve at <br /> least 1.5 acres. Through an owner's association, this subdivision could maintain such an open <br /> space area. <br /> Thank you for the opportunity to review this document. <br /> VICTOR MACHADO <br /> 13900 Oak Point Drive <br /> Lockeford, CA 95237 <br /> 209-727-3554 <br />
