Subject: Ford Rd Development
Hi Ben
I want to voice my initial concerns related to tonight’s Ford Rd discussions. Although the project looks
attractive, here are the concerns I have as a neighbor:
1. Traffic: Increased traffic along Ford (and potential speeding) at the edge of a very child centric
neighborhood. (can be mitigated through stop signs or speed bumps). Since the inception of
Pickle Ball, we get way more speeders heading towards the pickle ball courts. Given the family
centric Port Streets neighborhood, this is a super sensitive topic.
2. Parking: I’m concerned that Residents and Guests will find a way to use an already busy Parking
Lot at the Bonita Canyon Sports Park as overflow parking. During sporting events, this parking
lot generally gets pretty full.
3. Parks: increased park use: We can anticipate more park traffic, specifically more pickle ball
use. Can you share if the city has plans for additional park uses. I’d like to be made aware of
any park adjustments.
4. Environmental / Nature: With the development, we can expect the elimination of some very
nice Eucalyptus trees that align Bonita Canyon and act as a buffer to the Port Streets
neighborhood. How will the city counter the tree reduction. Hopefully the planning
commission requires a nice tree buffer on all sides of the condo complex.
6. Schools: Will these owners have access to Anderson School that is already impacted? This is
more of a school district issue.
