To members of the city council,
I’m wri?ng in regards to the proposal, Deer Canyon/Salt project and urge you to vote against it.As a resident of Anaheim
Hills, traffic in our neighborhood is already a significant issue with the 91 freeway causing severe conges?on on Santa
Ana Canyon, Weir Canyon and Serrano. I already deal with the conges?on we have on a daily basis.
I am also very concerned about the impact this will have on our local schools,increase in students per teacher, added
buses, if necessary,and more children walking along Santa Ana Canyon to get to school. We already had one boy crossing
to go to school and was hit so hard he literally flew out of his tennis shoes.
As a hiker, I am also deeply concerned about him the environmental impact of this project. The remaining wildlife in
Anaheim Hills is minimal and further developing of the hills would likely disrupt their habitat leading to a loss of
biodiversity.
I probably do not need to men?on the very real concern of the fire evacua?on. I know the city council has already heard
a lot about that, but it is truly a serious problem. If members of the city council would drive around Anaheim Hills into all
the neighborhoods they would realize, how this project will s?ck out like a sore thumb and also open up the avenue for
more high-rise apartments in adjacent areas. I realize we can’t stop progress but it needs to blend well with the
surrounding neighborhoods, building, high-rise luxury apartments, and commercial buildings does not accomplish this!
Thank you!
Noreen Francis
