Firestone Site Condominiums

Warned the 49-home development's sole Fireside Avenue access will add 400-500 daily trips and urged a second entrance from Sprinkle or Zylman.

Suggested the city use proceeds from selling the access easement to buy another easement for a future second entrance once the development is half full.

Went on record supporting a second entrance — "if we're going to do it, do it right" — and noted she only learned of the meeting the night before.

Raised safety concerns that both entrances cluster at the northeast corner, leaving up to 48 homes trapped if disaster strikes there.

Worried about 50-75 extra cars turning left onto Sprinkle Road with no light, stormwater already running off the field onto properties, and no Zilman Avenue access despite the nearby traffic light and fire department.

Not opposed to development but insisted the developer provide two entrances and exits; fears backup at the pedestrian crossing and difficulty getting out of her driveway.

Lives next to where the access road will connect; wants a traffic light at Fireside, two entrances, speed bumps, and raised sight-line concerns about retaining walls near her driveway.

Estimated 400-500 new daily trips on her street, urged a traffic study anyway, cited Stryker shift-change congestion, and asked for more drainage study given existing runoff problems.

42-year resident questioned 100+ new cars on a street with a high water table and flooding history, and asked why access can't connect to Zilman or Center Street with a traffic light.

Wants a second entrance on Zilman or Sprinkle and better sidewalk access so his kids can walk to Ramona Park.

Thanked the developer for the breakaway gate, asked for a traffic survey and possible signal, and flagged the chronic 'Lake Fireside' flooding at the pump station and the need to repave Fireside Avenue.
