We live behind the project and we are concerned about the night time lighting directed towards our house. What does your lighting look like at night.

Woodlake does not have enough park space as it is. You need to provide green space for this project and not use the Park as your backyard. You are not providing any funds for Park Space, instead your taking away from the already small park space for the Community.
Also it is not required to have parking but every area of Sacramento has vehicles even downtown. Your tenants mostly will to and you will be taking everyone in the area’s parking space at the park. Yes your tenants and visitors will take up all parking in the area.
This area has very few sidewalks. Do you realize how dangerous it is for all the tenants too?
Canterbury has no sidewalks. What neighborhood builds so many multi-family projects that endanger the lives of the people that live there. How dangerous will it be with all the increased tenants sharing the roadway-pedestrians, bikes, and vehicles. This does’nt include the lack of lighting. It is wreckless for these projects to be approved with no plan to address the dangerous conditions.
The City is spending millions around Sacramento for Pedestrian Safety and in this neighborhood it is going in the opposite direction. Making it more dangerous to all is shocking and quite frankly a case can be made for all who participate in these projects to be liable for any injuries or death do to the dangerous street conditions here.
This project should be reduced in size and all the for-mentioned should be addressed.

The park closes at sunset. How will that issue be handled by the building security? The park is like their backyard, the only place for the teenagers to get out of their apartment.

Reduce the number of units and provide parking for all plus their guests. Otherwise you will be creating additional problems for the neighborhood . Also, provide green space and barbecues etc for outdoor living and dining. It’s not appropriate to stuff these people in tiny little apartments without providing outdoor space for them. Woodlake park is not your solution.

Construction hasn’t even started and the only sidewalk is already blocked by the “temporary “ fence which looks crappy.

We haven’t had a bathroom in years. The light rail station has no bathrooms. The park used the bushes on the south side of the proposed building and light rail customers used the west side bushes. There should be a public restroom somewhere on the building.

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.

There needs to be a low priced, full service GROCERY STORE near this apt bldg - Invite TRADER JOES or GROCERY OUTLET - or even Raleys to build a healthy grocery store.

More businesses (retail, grocery, bars and restaurants). Sidewalks, lower speed limit and private security. NOT build densely packed apartment housing.

Outdoors community amenities, an open plaza with a cafe, lots of outdoor seating, must have a focus on fitting into the community and not gentrifying it

I respect your opinion but I’m surprised by it since you live on the park. We do need housing but this will cut off access to the park and playground for many families from the surrounding community. With no contribution from the developer towards more green space or any other consideration towards offsetting their carbon footprint I find this project unimpressive. If it was smaller and a Lead certified building for seniors I could support it.

Way too big for this lot. Too many occupants for the Area. Your taking space away from a community with limited Space. Did you go through SEQA. I don't know how you got around this. Too many Health and Safety issues for the Community with this Big of a Project.

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.

Free light rail passes, community center space or daycare on the ground floor, make it safer to ride your bike, trees.

Noise reduction at the light rail station. The bells are too loud and like crossings in midtown they should be lessened to reduce noise pollution but still ensure safety.
