Ginger McCracken Handley 17766 Bowser Rd. Lodi, CA 94520 (209) 727-3917 May 28, 1999 Ms.Kerry Sullivan San Joaquin County Community Development Department 1810 E Hazelton Ave Stockton, CA 95205 Opposition of Application #UP-98-18 Dear Ms.Sullivan: I would like to express the reasons, concerns and questions for my opposition to Application #UP-98- 18: O The sewage system that is being proposed for this project is a disaster! There are two such systems currently in operation in the San Joaquin county,both are enormous failures. The Board of Supervisors has stated the system does not work. Why should our ground water and the purity of our soil be put in jeopardy for this project? O The absence of an environmental impact report. O The local residents have been assured that there will be a security system, and that they have one planned,however,Mr. Rios has yet to provide us with any details other than"you will like it". What kind of security systems will be used? How are they going to provide security to the surrounding neighbors? Where is the outline? What will be the course of action taken for offenders, will they remain in Mr. Rios'employ? The current response time for the Sheriff's department(if a response can be accommodated), is over 30 minutes. This project will undoubtedly cause undue problems for the local residents and burden an already overloaded Sheriffs department. O The current traffic study was performed at 4:00 am and only between Harney Lane and Highway 88. A great majority of the people would not travel Highway 88,but Highway 99. A new study must be conducted at an appropriate time of day (during heavy and regular traffic times)censoring both Highways 99 and 88. It should be noted that an early attempt to establish a monthly rodeo on Tully Road, called the Palomino, was denied due to the amount of traffic it would bring into the area. That was a monthly situation,this camp would be a daily. O The proposal indicates that Mr. Rios would lease out some of the camp's facilities to be used for tournaments and playoff games(soccer,baseball, etc). Most of the teams would be traveling in tour buses. This would cause an ever greater impact on our roads in terms of wear and tear and traffic. O Should such tournaments and playoff games be allowed,would they being utilizing a Public Announcement systems/loud speakers? Are they going to be housing the players and their family and fans? Are they planning for the large crowds in terms of shelter and seating?
