Comments to Cayuga Heights Board of Trustees B/L5/L6
My name is Ronald Bors, I am a former Trustee and member of the
Planning Board of this village.
My wife and I have lived atL21 Texas Lane for 4L years, and thus
are very familiar with the traffic density in and around Community
Corners. As Cornell University has expanded, we have experienced
the difficulty of navigating through the Corners area and adjacent
side streets, particularly at certain times of day.
Any further increase in traffic density will make travel more
difficult.Any large inerease in traffic density will be intolerable. My
concern is that this Medical Office Building will lead to a large
increase in traffic density.
The proponents of this project are telling us that, based on their
studies, traffic increases are not a problem. This does not make
sense. Based on my analysis of their numbers for patients and staff,
there will be at least 75a additional vehicles per d^y, entering or
departing the property. That seems like a large increase to me.
I would urge this Board to consider an independent verification
of their assertion.
secondly, the proponents are asking for several sigriificant
variances, compared to existing zoning. They are assuming that
certain zoning restrictions will be relaxed, based on
recommendations of the Zoning Task Force. However, none of those
recommendations have been presented to the public as required, so
to approve these variances is very premature.
