11 <br />13 <br />It is not clear why so much new residential buildings are needed in one area. Too much density <br />for the current traffic patterns. More attention needs to be given to the bike paths. Kids need to be <br />able to safely bike around New Brighton and that is no the case. What about more green space for <br />residents to enjoy? <br />13 2 <br />14 Where is the bike parking going to be?2 3 <br />15 <br />I dislike the fact that much of this does not benefit existing residents. It all seems like it is designed to <br />attract new residents. NB is going to cut off its nose to spite its face. Cities do this all the time and it <br />backfires. How would this work for St. Anthony? A dead retail area nobody wants to use. <br />-1 <br />16 <br />The City of New Brighton does not need more retail centers, we have online shopping now, this <br />is completely ‘old-school’ thinking. We could use Day Care Centers, maybe a Park and Ride close <br />to 694 Freeway, for persons in New Brighton to Park and then ride the bus into both downtowns, <br />Minneapolis/St. Paul to work. <br />12 4 <br />17 <br />There is no way Silver Lake Road and this area can handle this influx of housing. Why are we pushing <br />so many of these hideous apartments? They always let the neighborhood down and cause a loss of <br />small-town feel. New Brighton doesn’t need this. <br />9 3 <br />18 This seems like a very high density of residential housing for this already very busy area? I am <br />concerned how this will affect the safety and usability of our community.-3 <br />19 <br />This seems like a lot of residential housing in an area where traffic is congested and busy roads are <br />already a concern. Walking and riding bikes at the Innsbruck/Silver Lake intersection is already unsafe <br />as mentioned in previous survey. This will make traffic flow that much worse. <br />9 2 <br />20 <br />Concerned about the affordability of these units. We have enough expensive housing in new <br />Brighton anything additional should be to help meet the needs of housing that exist across the <br />county to reduce the number of unsheltered people and families. <br />2 10 <br />21 Why situate this so close to the freeway? The parking lot could be between the residential building <br />and the freeway, and some more trees in between.7 1 <br />22 This road is extremely loud since it is very close to the highway. Is there a plan to put a highway noise <br />barrier here?4 - <br />23 <br />New Brighton has several apartment complexes at present, we do not need to add additional <br />housing to the city. What we do need is more city/county park space to accommodate the existing <br />population of New Brighton. Improvements to current buildings that are existing on City of New <br />Brighton property could be made: to Fire Department, Police Station, Library and Community Center. <br />We could get a City of New Brighton pool, etc. <br />10 3 <br />24 <br />With the added density, the design and safety of the SLR/694 interchange should be reassessed. <br />There have been multiple accidents I’ve personally seen with drivers coming south on SLR turning <br />left to go onto 694 east getting t-boned since the turning driver can’t see the 2nd lane of oncoming <br />traffic when the left lane of northbound traffic is stopped waiting to turn left on to westbound 694. <br />17 -
