Owns three nearby properties; says about 300 existing homes plus roughly 300 new units all funnel onto 58th Street with no alternative exit, and urges a second ingress/egress.

Lives at the corner of an entrance; calls the developer's traffic study 'junk,' says the unique 58th/Boston geometry wasn't modeled, and doubts the promised gas well lawsuit exists.

Says half of Hardscrabble Village must make a left onto 58th Street right where a proposed stop sign would go; fears gridlock and wants a back way out of the development.

Describes the project as a 'foot in the door' that grew from ~24 houses to 500+ doors; wants the no-bars/no-nightclubs limits locked in stone and the gas well enforced.

Echoes traffic concerns: coming off Hardscrabble onto 58th will be 'impossible' with 500 more doors, predicts fender benders, and asks for more planning before final approval.

Represents the developer: density hasn't changed, two traffic studies were independently reviewed, the proposal has less commercial and fewer units than studied, and lawyers are handling the gas well noise.

Developer's representative: the vision is a walkable community for foreign military personnel (many with one or no cars), with cafes and small shops to cut trips to Rogers Avenue.
