IMPACT

  • Traffic

    -We are in year 2 of 5+ years of planned construction on Lakeshore Dr.

    -Plans disregard impact on a highly-trafficked area without reliable data

    -Increased development will lead to increased traffic congestion

  • Safety

    -Concerns for how more pedestrians will cross an already congested road

    -Slower traffic means slower response times for emergency vehicles

    -This is in a highly trafficked & accident prone stretch

  • Stormwater / Pollution

    -Development will increase water pollution in the Bay

    -Over 90% of pollution in the Bay is caused by stormwater which new sewer will not fix

    -Similar issues caused St. Albans Bay to be unsafe to swim

  • Beauty

    Beauty

    -Development will drastically change the landscape for all

    -Does not comply with town plan related to “view preservation”

    -Increased overdevelopment and pollution will impact the natural beauty of the Bay
