I am writing regarding the EIR for the Froom Ranch Specific Plan Project. As a business
owner in the area, I have 3 major concerns that I would like to have included in the EIR:
• Traffic congestion/Roadway Improvements
• Water Use
Flooding
The traffic on Los Osos Valley Road has grown tremendously over the last few years as
more retail has moved into the area. The roadway improvements completed last summer
have helped but traffic still backs up at the major intersections and the entrances to retail
areas by Costco and Target. I would like to see what kind of impact this project would
have on the traffic in the area and what kind of roadway improvements would be needed
to handle the increased congestion. Of note, would a sidewalk be included on the
southside of LOVR?
Although we have left the drought behind for now, I would like to know if water use will
be an issue for this project.
The intersection of LOVR & Calle Joaquin flooded several times during our rainy season.
Sections of roadway along LOVR were also reduced to one lane due to water overflow.
As part of the EIR, I would like to see how the potential for flooding along the roadway
and any sidewalk would be addressed.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
