your decision. The City should also consider the impact of thousands of other units of high density, high rise housing now planned within a few square miles of OBP. Specifically, the City should require new traffic studies to accurately account for the numerous other apartment projects under development in the area. As several neighborhoods have requested, after this City review is completed, the City should then require appropriate new physical traffic mitigation and calming measures to be placed on the project for the benefit of the surrounding neighborhoods and the City as a whole. I support my neighbors' request that, based on the current information secured from this new Citywide assessment, OBP should then prepare a Master Traffic Mitigation and Calming Plan acceptable to the surrounding neighborhoods; and plan, design and construct all physical improvements identified in this plan. I also support my neighbors’ request that City Staff ask that the City Council take action to identify nearby neighborhoods, including Downtown, Lacy, Logan, Willard, French Court and French Park, as "Traffic-Calmed Neighborhoods" once all traffic mitigation and calming improvements are installed. I urge the City to place the responsibility for these tasks on OBP, and require them as Conditions of Approval on the project. They should also be included in the City's Development Agreement for the project for the Neighborhoods and fully funded by OBP. Now is not the time to fast track this project at the expense of these surrounding neighborhoods. To ensure responsible development that benefits all of your Santa Ana constituents, I urge the City and OBP to meet with neighborhood representatives to discuss the type and location of these measures as soon as possible. Thank you for your consideration. Sincere thanks to the City Staff and to the Commission for your continued service on behalf of all Santa Ana residents during this difficult time. I am writing this letter to you as an individual Santa Ana resident and constituent.
