Concerns rise over traffic safety in proposed development plans
In a recent government meeting, concerns were raised regarding a proposed development near Xolo Lake Road, particularly focusing on traffic safety and environmental preservation. Residents expressed discomfort with the narrowness of the road and the potential for increased traffic due to the development's main access point. The discussions highlighted the need for careful planning to ensure safe ingress and egress, especially given the presence of several sharp turns along the road.

One resident emphasized the importance of maintaining local geological features and trees, questioning whether a forester had assessed the site to identify valuable natural resources. They cautioned against recommending the project without specific conditions aimed at enhancing traffic safety and ensuring fire evacuation routes for existing residents.

Another participant pointed out that a nearby 35-acre commercial property could meet similar needs without the complications posed by the proposed development. They argued that the existing infrastructure might better serve the community's requirements.

In response, the developer acknowledged the concerns but noted that many issues would be addressed during the subdivision and site plan review stages. They assured attendees that they were open to recommendations and willing to implement necessary traffic improvements, including a turn lane and stoplight at the main access point.

The meeting underscored the community's desire for responsible development that prioritizes safety and environmental considerations while accommodating growth in the area.
