Dear Council Member,
I am writing to as k you to vote "No" on the Anaheim Hills Fes tival Center apartment project. You don't need to be a traffic expert to s ee that Santa Ana Canyon Road
is already at its limit. Mos t days , jus t getting to the s tore or work is a challenge. He will not be able to add over 400 apartments and about 1300 people to this area
without jeopardizing the quality of life and s afety of its res idence.
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 incredibly frus trating to thos e of us who live here. By approving this , the city is bas ically admitting the evacuation plan is broken but choos ing to make it
even more crowded anyway.
We need our leaders to look at the reality of our s treets , not jus t the numbers on a developer's spreadsheet. Pleas e do the res pons ible thing and protect the res idents
who are already here and their quality of life. Pleas e vote "No" on this project.
Sincerely,
Kerilyn Counter
Longtime res ident of Anaheim Hills
