Pg. 2 Windsor North Proposal: Ocean Run Way Planning Proposal COnOems? Noise, and Backup Congestion etc are some real community concerns. Turtle Cave ASK: Will trucks run their engines for hours while waiting for appointments and transfer carts? Plan B: Is there a better way to disperse traffic to smaller interior places. The main peak trip load is in the mornings. Function: Overall peak trips may overpower the proposed AlA parking area and cause more congestion and noise pollution! Golf carts may seem to be a cleaner use within the community, but the transfer concept may not work at a concentrated entry point. Since Island traffic management at this Ocean Run Way location has been very poor, There are concerns the proposed concentrated lot situation will further exacerbate community and island congestion. Many work trucks have large trailers behind them as they try to negotiate turns into the Proposed lot. Dispersing traffic to the numerous gates would be a solution. Keeping the commercial uses concentrated behind homes and fronting the Al face is a concern. Property Insurance Issue and Audit Request_ Insurance Letters were received by P&Z! Insurance carriers normally inspect properties. There are concerns about rating agencies and provision! Service trucks often carry extra fuel in bed canisters for use in the other properties they serve_ Convincing the insurers of the "all electric" Windsor theme may not be easy. Current Property Aerial and Uses in the Proposed Lot: "Not elegant or even pretty the upfront maintenance area plan!" The face of Al A? Residents noted the stabilized maintenance area by Al A. Residents are wondering about uses there. They are still concerned about dumpsters or fuel tanks being moved from other interior locations of the property to the maintenance area. What will be stored in the maintenance area? Windsor said in the P&Z hearing "we are all electric." There were concerns about machinery, gasoline, chemicals, solvents, paint, and other substance storage at this location near Al A. One lady commented that "parts of Windsor have tight urban streets so they might want smaller commercial service parking areas within the community instead of the proposed large 56 space lot!" Another question arose: Where do larger trucks park? Traffic Improvement Planning Questions: To be determined later may be too late! Windsor has turn lanes for their other entrances! Most people expect future turn lane mandates and widening required for Ocean Run Way especially if Winsor expands the scope of the roadway use_ The subject proposal should be studied as to turn lane location and sizing before site plans are given an approving nod. FDOT has plans to widen Al in the 2024 -5 -time frame. There is a strong possibility turn lane space will be required. Windsor needs to plan for widening impacts with FDOT on their side of AIA.
