Steve, these are the same concerns I raised during conceptual review, whcih are very valid. That is why it
is important to have the rear alley access and not drive ways every 20 feet, making crossing the street
more dangerous and creating additional conflict points that aren't necessary. I hope this point was made
to the developer during the meeting.

Tom,
I attended an informal meeting in front of Bennett School last Thursday morning with the school principal,
Sue Reid, and the developers. We talked for about an hour as we overlooked the property across the
street. The developers arranged this meeting.
Sue is very excited about and supportive of a single family development on this property (versus some
obvious options); however, she has concerns about the potential loss of on -street parking and children's
safety around and crossing the street. She would like to see Bennett Road become a one-way street. She
will be at the neighborhood meeting, probably in support of the project.

Steve, I plan on attending this neighborhood meeting, but I also thought we were going to set up a
separate meeting with the city, school district, Bennett principal, and the developer prior to the
neighborhood meeting. Is this meeting still going to take place?

I have just scheduled a neighborhood information for the proposed Bennett Road Bungalows single family
residential project (see attached letter) for Wednesday night, August 22nd at Bennett Elementary School.
The meeting will start at 7:00 p.m.
This project has the potential to be somewhat controversial so I think it is very important that we have the
appropriate City staff present at this meeting to answer the residents questions, including someone from
the Neighborhood Resources office. Please let me know as soon as possible if we have to make other
arrangements for representatation from your department.
Thanks, Steve
