To SLO City Planning Commission: I have lived on Stanford Drive for over 50
years. I have seen it's population grow from families (with children of all ages), to
over -population as it is now. Even though the law says no more than 5 students
per house, the rental next to me usually has 6 students living in it. A couple of
Spring quarters, they even allowed a student to sleep in the yard and use the
inside of the house for necessities. Since that house is subletting to extra
students, then it is happening in other houses. EVEN THOUGH THE LAW SAYS NO
MORE THAN 5 STUDENTS PER HOUSE - REALITY SAYS OTHERWISE. Your packet,
page 103 "Conclusion would not substantially increase population in the area"
the only reason why it would not is because: the Stanford Drive population "IS
ALREADY SUBSTANTIALLY IMPACTED BECAUSE OF THE LARGE HIGH NUMBER OF
OUR STUDENT POPULATION". "Compatibility with other neighborhoods" - does
that mean that the new houses will be over 50% occupied by large numbers of
students?
Traffic: This Fall, When Cal Poly starts having classes on campus again, traffic
will increase, again, on Stanford Drive. Because of our INTRUSIVE TRAFFIC: for
years I have had to time my activities so that it will be safe to back out of my own
driveway. When cars are SPEEDING down the street, the curve in the street
prohibits enough visibility to be safe. Students like their cars. Stanford Drive
already has it's own intrusive (unsafe) traffic. Please don't make the burden
worse on the homeowners who have lived here and happily paid our taxes. LVE
Policy 2.2.3 states that "NEIGHBORHOODS SHOULD BE PROTECTED FROM
INTRUSIVE TRAFFIC". Please share the new traffic burden with Jeffrey and
Westmont.
Walkers from other streets enjoy walking on Stanford Drive sidewalks. Please
do not take away our neighborhood. We are happy to share - with safety.
