I think pets are too important in people’s lives to exclude them from any “affordable” housing. Veterinary service should be provided and all pets should be spayed or neutered plus vaccinated prior to admission.

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.

Keeping within 2 stories. You can make the decision according to GSD.

What are you talking about? A better place for this monstrosity would be the 30 acre site in Folsom owned by the state. Lots of room, near transit, and GOOD schools. Go ahead, try putting it there, I dare you.

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.

No - you don’t hear us. Stop the auto replies and leave. You have made a big mistake and the governor will not be proud of this development. #noribboncutting

Where are these folks going to park and drive.
Our streets are crazy. I invite you to visit Oxford and Woodlake the traffic is nonstop.
Having a daycare is going to this problem worse. And apartments this is crazy. Say goodbye to our lovely neighborhood.

Dave C’s comment is accurate. At this community meeting Bridge needs to be honest about the number of occupants and vehicles. This is not SF and our light rail and bus system is limited here so more occupants will own vehicles than in other Bridges projects. Bridges care-less responses regarding the out of control and dangerous traffic conditions this building will create need to be addressed.
Our community needs housing but this is a for profit scheme to collect 99 years of rent while exploiting public land and draining public funds and resources.
These issues all need to be and will be confronted in the open at this meeting.

I have questions:
1. Your initial proposal had 2 options. One with 102 units if Bridge did not acquire adjacent property and another with 124 units if they did. Am I to assume Bridge now is acquiring the adjacent property as the larger project is the only one described here?
2. This site mentions CEQUA review. Is that happening. I thought the ministerial infill process was being used which does not require CEQUA or any environmental review for that matter?
3. The before & after visuals of this development from the Police Officer Memorial perspective show a large boulevard separating the project from the memorial. Currently there is only a narrow driveway. How is it a boulevard would be constructed?

More open space and fewer massive apartment complexes. Nothing is planned to improve the local infrastructure which barely supports current needs.
