My biggest concern is traffic. Currently we are faced daily with traffic problems I'll give you some of examples I have personally witnessed. 1. The roundabout at Carey and 136 on a weekday morning There are backups in every direction.(southbound Carey, and westbound 136 all the way to the roundabout at keystone ave). Currently a lot of traffic will sneak through our neighborhood to exit directly onto westbound 136 hoping people will let them in. All of which are in a hurry and endanger our children waiting for their school buses. 2. Northbound Keystone traffic trying to exit onto 136th Street. The other evening on a Wednesday around 6:15 my husband and I were heading out to dinner, I witnessed a huge back up in the northbound lanes on Keystone trying to exit to 136th Street. It was backed up to Main Street. While I appreciate the higher quality of the Old Towns product, I can't imagine adding an additional 200 housing units and all the additional traffic it will bring to the already existing traffic problems we have. I also understand that when the road construction that will allow Keystone Ave entry from 146th is completed it will help to alleviate some of our backups. Although I don't believe it will be enough if we were to add 200 housing units. If you didn't approve the earlier proposal of adding 167 units of people 55+ years of age, please don't allow this either. Thank you for your consideration. Tami Singer 3185 Smokey Ridge Ln Carmel
