13 382 information meeting at our school, so we have learned all about this proposal already, and we just 383 want to express that we have a very vested interest in this property, and we currently use it. We 384 have an agreement with the current owners that we can use the cross-country trail on it, so we 385 would lose that, and we just wanted to share that we are interested in the property and that we 386 would obviously love to continue to have our cross-country program. Thank you. 387 388 Lamar Proctor: All right. Thank you. Winifried Johnson. 389 390 Chris Johnston: If you could come to the front. I apologize. 391 392 Winifried Johnson: I am just concerned about the traffic situation on 86. It's already really bad,so with this new 393 development, I'm just concerned about the traffic on 86. That's what I'm here to hear about. 394 395 Chris Johnston: Okay. Do you, do you have any, any additional comments on that? 396 397 Winifried Johnson: No,that's the only comment I'm concerned about. I just came to hear about what's going to 398 happen with the traffic. 399 400 Chris Johnston: Wonderful. Thank you. 401 402 Winifried Johnson: You're welcome. 403 404 Cy Stober: Ma'am, before you leave,just so we have it on the record, could you just say your name once 405 again please? 406 407 Winifried Johnson: I'm sorry. My name is Winifried Johnson. I live on 86. 408 409 Lamar Proctor: Thank you very much,Winifried.And once again, if you step up,just make sure you speak clearly 410 into the microphone. State your name and your location in the county. Daniel Rawlins. 411 412 Daniel Rawlins: I am Daniel Rawlins. I live at 200 Governor Burke Road. I just wanted to point out to support Ms. 413 Johnson, I don't know if anyone's been on 86 between 7:30 and 8:30 in the morning, it's a train 414 wreck. There are hills that already,there is many accidents already on that road in the morning 415 when you come over certain hills. If you've been up there you've seen it. I am concerned about 416 the traffic on 86 in the morning. Also, acutely for us,we have on Governor Burke Road,and if 417 anyone is there during the school hours, people cut across from 86 on Governor Burke Road in 418 the morning, especially high school children flying down our road. This would increase traffic 419 across, not only in the morning for school but also when people want to access that side of 420 Hillsborough where like Food Lion is, and they come through that area. The increased traffic 421 would definitely be a nuisance to us, but that would just be a nuisance. I am concerned about 86, 422 especially between 7:30 and 8:30. It is quite crowded already. There is plenty of traffic from the 423 Eno River Academy on 57 already, so anyone who's been there, I would say go drive over there in 424 the morning just once to see how bad 57 is from Eno River Academy and how bad 86 is from 425 traffic coming from north to south already, and that will increase that, and of course,for us 426 personally on 80, on Governor Burke Road in the morning, that would increase traffic cutting 427 across between 86 and 57, and I,without any kind of study of the traffic I'm kind of concerned, as 428 is already pretty bad already in the morning if anyone would come and see what it looks like at 429 8:00. It's pretty congested in that area already. Thank you. 430 431 Lamar Proctor: Thank you. Stephanie Waller. 432 433 Stephanie Waller: Hello. My name is Stephanie Waller, and I reside at 113 Blackman Lane. Growth is inevitable, 434 and I just want to have some accountability with the growth. The project I think is lovely. If I had 435 to actually choose between different builders or developers,what they propose is really good 1 436 think having come from Durham as a native person and having seen the overgrowth in Durham.
