Received at City Council <br />Meeting 2/19/2019 <br />Selena Kelaher, Associate Planner <br />City of Santa Ana, Planning and Building Agency <br />-• .. •::, <br />Santa Ana, Ca 92702 <br />Dear Ms. Kelaher: <br />Regarding the proposed high density housing development at 2525 N. Main, I am very <br />opposed to this being passed by your department. The traffic impact on the city and our <br />neighborhood will be unbelievable. To put the full time population of at least 1,000 <br />people and at least 2,000 cars at the apex of our neighborhood is terrible. First of all <br />this is at a 5 — way intersection that is dangerous as it is right now. To jam up Main <br />Street with cars trying to enter or exit so close to a freeway off ramp is wrong . We do <br />not want to mitigate this by having egress on Edgewood which would involve our traffic <br />flow. There isn't enough room to stack more than 5 cars at a time at the light on Main <br />Street. To ruin our city park with egress at the park entrance is not an option. <br />This is zoned as professional and should remain as such. The implied traffic on the EIR <br />study is inaccurate, as we have had professional office neighbors for 40 plus years <br />without complaint. <br />Addressing points on said DEIR: <br />Section 4.11 Transportation and Traffic. <br />4.11.3 Environmental Setting <br />1) Traffic Study Area <br />a) The intersections listed in Table 4.11-1 has errors and omissions. Intersection 9 listed <br />as <br />Main Street/Edgewood/1-5 Ramps is two intersections that should be evaluated <br />individually: <br />i) Traveling south on Main Street, there is an intersection with Edgewood to the east <br />and the 1-5 N HOV lane entrance to the west. (The HOV entrance is scheduled to be <br />removed.) <br />ii) Traveling north on Main Street or on 1-5 and exiting on Main Street North is a <br />separate signalized intersection south of Edgewood. <br />b) The existing roadway segments listed in table 4.11-2 and table 4.11-4 do not include <br />Lawson Way, which is central to projects 6, 7, 8, and 25 on Table 4.1, as well as <br />providing access from 22E/Town & Country exit to Table 4.1 project 22 and this <br />proposed project. The cumulative impact of all these projects on Lawson Way should be <br />
