Also it seems that a pathway will be made close to our property and this is not really a problem <br />for us. If a walkway needs to be made within our front yard, we would not be against it, if we do <br />not have to plow it and if this allows us to get some side yard as an exchange. <br />2) Architecture: <br />If possible, some type of continuity in the design with the older homes on 137th as ours and the <br />new ones would be welcome to limit the demarcation. This would avoid too much of a <br />depreciation of our houses. <br />3) Driveway: <br />Our driveway is extra -large, as it was a request from HUGO fire department when the house was <br />originally build, to be able to turn around with the fire trucks. We understand that this <br />requirement will not exist when the road will be opened, but we do not want to be forced to <br />rework our driveway. We have made large investments, including 3 rental townhomes in Hugo, <br />and do not have to invest in the driveway, while our house needs major renovations. <br />4) Traffic: <br />Is there an estimate of the amount of traffic through 137th street? I understand that traffic will be a <br />little above 300 trips/hour at rush hours, but is there an estimate of the % of this traffic which <br />would go through? Our biggest concern is the speed of the cars and a roundabout or speed bumps <br />might be useful to increase the safety of the kids. It is also true that the new road lay -out proposed <br />by Excelsior seems curvy enough to prevent any high speeding cars. <br />5) Construction hours: <br />Of course, we expect noise for the construction which we imagine will last 3 or 4 years. But we <br />would like to make sure that the hours are reasonable: 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM weekdays only, and no <br />work during week -ends or holidays. I do not think this is addressed in the EAW. <br />Finally, it seems that there has been a private meeting with Excelsior on 3/16, but we did not get the <br />notification, maybe because we just moved in. Please make sure we are now listed with them or that we <br />can have a "catch-up" session and do not hesitate to communicate our details to them. <br />Sincerely, <br />Jerome.
