Windsor Forest development

Lives at 552 Windsor Forest Drive backing the site; strongly worried a mass of small homes to the west will devalue her home.

Asked about school district impact, environmental risks from construction near the landfill, and benefits to current residents; noted he had to excavate extra buried debris when he built his home nearby.

Condo resident concerned about visitor parking spilling onto Saxonwood, fire hydrant clearances, and whether small lots belong in her neighborhood; suggested bigger lots and better homes instead.

Questioned emergency vehicle access on the narrow road and challenged council members to say they'd want to live next to a closed dump; asked why other large vacant sites aren't developed instead.

Neighbor to the proposed road; asked the council not to rush, saying half the neighbors he surveyed didn't know about the plan; raised road connection, lost wooded buffer, landfill liability and testing questions, and requested a neighborhood meeting.

Raised remediation risks and health/safety of current residents' water supply, plus the history of police calls at the nearby fourplex apartments, urging a public safety component.

Worried that 'affordable' and 'low income' labels for the new homes will hurt current owners' property values after investing in their properties.

Cited guidance against building within 1,000–1,500 feet of a dump, objected to $400,000 homes on a landfill, said small lots mean cluttered yards, and asked the city to notify residents directly rather than rely on word of mouth.

Argued 42-foot lots with six-foot side yards amount to 'a trailer park,' noted no room for boats or campers, questioned safety of the narrow road for walkers and bikers, and recalled an earlier rezoning that brought duplexes behind single-family homes.

A Saxonwood resident and engineer who supports the concept; pressed for clarity on what 'affordable' means, asked about basement costs and rentals to college students, and suggested common parking; noted infrastructure estimates and the affordability math.

Of 1643 Old English Road; said Hillcrest was also pitched as affordable but wasn't, questioned the park promise made to her in 2004 that never happened, and urged the council to prioritize neighborhood children's need for a park over new houses.
