Shaw & Locan Multifamily Rezone and Housing Element Compliance

Expressed concerns about the lack of alternative site options, school crowding, increased traffic, and whether rezoning guarantees low-income housing affordability.

Voiced worry that apartments would lower property values and increase street trash and congestion.

Questioned whether the site truly qualified as underutilized and highlighted that local schools are already impacted by growth.

Argued that the project burdens infrastructure without a center divider on Locan Avenue and noted unanimous neighborhood opposition.

Stated that residents chose the neighborhood for its quiet, low-density feel and quality of life.

Asked whether school and traffic impact studies are completed before approval or if the city approves first and deals with problems later.
