Dear Council Members ,
I am writing to as k you to vote "No" on the Anaheim Hills Fes tival Center apartment project.
SAFETY FIRST!
The idea that we can add over 400 apartments and about 1,000 additional people and vehicles to this area without creating a dis as ter during a wildfire evacuation jus t
does n't make s ens e.
SAFETY FIRST!
We need infras tructure improvements in our area, ( ie Fairmont overpass), prior to any additional res idential development along Santa Ana Canyon.
SAFETY FIRST!
The city's own reports admit that it already takes res idents over three hours to get out during a fire. To then s ay that adding another 7 minutes of delay is "not a big
deal" is total nons ens e.
SAFETY FIRST!
For city employees , s pokes people and s ome council members to continue to espous e KNOW YOUR WAY as a s olution is a complete dereliction of duty. KNOW
YOUR WAY is bas ically get to the 91. For many of us , the ONLY WAY is via Santa Ana Canyon to either Weir Canyon or Imperial then onto the 91. This is a
DEATHTRAP.
SAFETY FIRST!
Pleas e do the res pons ible thing and protect your cons tituents . We need better ways to get out of the Hills , not more people trapped in them. Pleas e vote "No" on
this project.
SAFETY FIRST!
Sincerely,
Betty Farns worth
