5. We have been unable to review the implications of this project on the traffic flow. <br /> This development will impact traffic on Brown Road and Highway 12. Currently, <br /> there are significant safety issues regarding the ability to turn east on Highway 12 <br /> from North Brown road. This project will only serve to enhance these concerns and <br /> put Orono residents and others at risk. <br /> 6. We are concerned that there appears to be a desire on the part of the developer to <br /> force the city and others to a"rush to judgement"on this project. While we are <br /> sensitive to the issue of the expiration of the option for the land, we believe that the <br /> developer can explore other methods to preserve their interests while the implications <br /> of the project are fully evaluated. We believe that if approved this project will <br /> significantly impact the future of Orono for all of its residents. <br /> 7. Lastly,there is a potential safety issue—does the city have fire-fighting equipment <br /> capable of handling an emergency for the proposed height of these buildings? <br /> We respectfully request that these issues be considered at the planning meeting on <br /> December 7, 2000 and subsequent progression on this development be delayed until these <br /> issues and potentially others can be thoughtfully addressed and resolved. <br /> Thank you for your prompt attention and thoughtful consideration on behalf of all of the <br /> residents of Oro u o. <br /> ♦ 2 Q Q / <br /> Sincerely. /(1, <br /> _ AGO <br /> Sugar Woods Homeo ers Association <br /> Copies: Orono City Council <br /> Orono Planning Commission <br />
