The second important fact to remember is that <br />these prople would already be at the Institute, that is, the <br />proposal truly doesn't add traffic. Furthermore, ther^will <br />be no vehicle trips associated with travel to and from the <br />Institute to work. <br />However, the matter of not adding ^ additional traffic to <br />the existing entrance, which doesn’t have ideal sight distance <br />along County Road 19, has been given strong consideration. <br />service area of the FWBI is proposed <br />Vi h south and to share an access with better <br />driie^iin'h''^^? t housing units. The existing service access <br />closed off and relandscaped, it has been decided <br />that since the amount of service traffic is so negligible, <br />there will not be a problem with sharing this driveway with <br />the proposed units. <br />Potential Institute Expansion. <br />Jh! “®®"»ich could be affected by the future expansion of- - <br />the Institute is illustrated on Figure 3.
