There will barely be enough parking space for resident parking, any retail commercial space will only take up street parking from current neighbors and park guests

Find a difference space to build this giant project or limit it in size.

Telling People that Transit will stop Vehicle use is wrong. I have know many people who live in Mid-town and Downtown Sacramento. They all had vehicles. Some even regularly paid Parking fines. I can think of many. I also have been in many Affordable housing projects and one thing they all had in common was they all had a lot of Vehicles. Please tell the Truth Bridge Housing. I know from experience.

Five stories is inappropriate for this location. It is in a park. It is adjacent to the Police and Sheriff Memorial. Woodlake has more than its fair share of low income housing with CHW on east, Volunteers of America on Del Paso Blvd, vouchers at Surestay on the South, and low income housing on Lochbrae.

This development is too large for the neighborhood. The schools are among the lowest rated in Sacramento. The train tracks are steps away and there are no sidewalks or crosswalks near this site for the hundreds of people and children who would potentially live here. Parking projections are absurd, parking for one car for 1/3 of the units - what? This project would ruin the beloved Woodlake community. This project just doesn’t make sense.

At five stories tall on a little more than an acre of land this project is to big. With a planned 220 bedrooms that could mean 660 occupants by current maximum occupancy standards. To think that at least half of these occupants won't want to own a car is crazy. Thats 330 new cars to the neighborhood that simply can't handle that influx. You need to rethink the scale of this project to realistically fit in this physical space. It should be no more than two stories in height to fit in with the surrounding neighborhood aesthetics and should cater to elderly and disabled housing recipients with associated services for that demographic. The parking, traffic and safety concerns related to the size of your project are too great to sweep under the rug.

Not Paying Park fee's diminish the Park Space in the Community. This is the 3rd proposed project with no Park Fee's in this area. You are diminishing the Quality of Air and Life for the People who already reside here by Building this Project. You are not being a good neighbor to our Community. We need more Park Space. Not a 3rd Project with no Property Taxes Paid or no Park Fee's. Stop this Project Now. Greed is creating poor Quality of Life for our Community. Do a Better Job. Make this Project 2 stories only for Senior's. They need Low Income Housing. We need Facilities for Seniors here.

We live on Woodlake Drive directly across from this looming monstrosity. We will see this beast from our beautiful 1960’s bungalow front window every day. It is horrifying that this is being dumped in our neighborhood. Woodlake, which was featured by Preservation Sacramento, is the crown jewel of Old North Sacramento. It is an historic neighborhood and should be protected from reckless development like this. It is crazy this is even being allowed. Woodlake is a quant English village full of historic homes, most of which date between 1910 and the 1960’s. Woodlake home prices range from 600 thousand up to a million or more, this is not a cookie-cutter residential neighborhood. A five-story building in Sacramento’s most beautiful suburban residential park is insane. There is not another five-story residential building anywhere in North Sacramento. There is barely anything over two-stories and yet you are putting one here in the historic Woodlake neighborhood park, that is nuts. Del Paso Boulevard is where low-income development is needed and justified. It has the Art Deco style you are claiming to emulate. But there is nothing Art Deco or appealing about this atrocious structure of concrete, metal siding, and glass. Enormous address numbers in a font that looks vaguely Art Deco-ish "lipstick on a pig" will not transform this blocky institutional looking building into something appealing for Woodlake or North Sacramento!

You need to rethink the scale of this project to realistically fit in the one acre physical space. It should be no more than three stories in height to fit in with the surrounding neighborhood.
Not building a five story mega apartment complex in a small neighborhood with extremely limited parking and resources.
