| As someone that lives near this site, I am strongly opposed to the proposed Sports Park. Having a natural park in this location with trees and trails would be great, but not stadiums and a parking lot for 400 cars! With all of the housing developments built in this area recently, traffic has already become a problem. If there are soccer games and tournaments held here, Sand Lake Rd will become a nightmare for drivers. One of the main draws of the Sand Lake area used to be the quiet, serene neighborhoods with lots of wildlife. We don't want any more cars and concrete! After hearing a presentation at a community council meeting by AS&G and the soccer club, it sounded like there is not an actual shortage of soccer fields, but more of a problem with maintaining them. Before additional fields are built, the problem with the Kincaid Park fields and the municipality not up-keeping them properly needs to be fixed. There is also a sledding hill proposed which sounds fine, but not if the plan is to raise the height above the surrounding neighborhoods. Please ensure that the elevation is limited to the current approved height of 162 ft. | |
