Mr. Dykstra, 

I live on Ernhill Drive with my husband and 2 small children. We are unable to attend the electronic town hall tomorrow, but we are strongly opposed to the rezoning application of the development at 2627 Sooke Road. There is simply not enough room for street parking, which will overflow onto Southglen and Alderglen. It is not unreasonable to assume that the vast majority of residents in the proposed condominium will have at least 1 vehicle, and an average of 1.5 is also not unreasonable to expect. 

Furthermore, we would like to see a left turn from Sooke road into the condominiums and no through access from our quiet streets. Ernhill has no sidewalks, barely a shoulder and many turns. The speed limit is 50km/hr and cars fly down the road. Without an improvement to infrastructure, the increase in traffic will make our quiet road feel unsafe for pedestrians, cyclists and children. 

Sincerely,
