I would also like to add an incident that happened just yesterday evening that proves my concerns are
valid regarding this development.
My daughter left our house to go home around 5:15 yesterday evening. It took her almost an hour and a
half to get home from our house. Normally a 15 min drive w/o traffic. Supposedly, several lights were out.
There was total gridlock. I called sheriff dept to ask what was going on. They said they were waiting for
repairmen to fix the traffic lights that were out. When I suggested they get some officers out there to
direct traffic, she said they didn't have anyone who could do it. What a scary mess. Affected YL Blvd east
to La Palma Ave and east on La Palma. Thank God it wasn’t due to fires.
n addition, we experienced the evacuation process during the 2008 Fwy Fires. That was another disaster
that put my 3 children’s and 2 grandchildren’s lives in danger while they were trying to evacuate. They
got
caught in the fires on both sides of the 91 fwy, having to breathe in the black smoke all around them. By
the grace of God, they finally managed to escape.
This is not a feasible, safe or responsible development. It needs to be voted down.

This development would create a very dangerous situation for so many residents. We are
already above a safe level of population for evacuation in case of fires, as the fire dept and
the police can attest to. With only one way out, via Santa Ana Canyon Road, there will be
massive gridlock. Please, do not put this development over the precious lives of human
beings!
