<br />2. Ongoing permanent management of service vehicles and other heavy <br />equipment (garbage trucks, delivery vans, school buses, utility vehicles) into <br />and out of the finished subdivision. <br />Cabe Ford Road is a small dead-end road; it is therefore especially vulnerable to any <br />increase in traffic, especially heavy vehicles that cannot turn around at the dead-end <br />and must therefore use private driveways, yards or roadsides. The effects on traffic of <br />even a small number of new houses is considerable. <br />Currently, the proposed project has no second access, and there is no guarantee that <br />either of the proposed "stub-outs".will ever become a second access. We continue to <br />propose that safe and appropriate planning requires a second access to this <br />subdivision; however, if there is none we expect that the applicant and the county will <br />not solve traffic problem in a way that adversely affects the existing neighborhood. <br />REQUEST: <br />A. THAT APPLICANT PROVIDE A VIABLE AND ENFORCEABLE PLAN TO <br />LIMIT AND MANAGE PERMANENT SUBDIVISION TRAFFIC SO THAT <br />ROADSIDES AND PRIVATE DRIVEWAYS DO NOT BECOME DEFACTO <br />PUBLIC CUL-DE-SACS. <br />B. THAT APPLICANT INSTALL PERMANENT SIGNS AND/OR CREATE <br />OTHER SUBDIVISION ENTRANCE FEATURES. THAT CLEARLY MARK <br />THE ENTRANCE TO THE SUBDIVISION AND WARN TRAFFIC THAT <br />THERE IS NO TURN-AROUND AT THE WESTERN END OF CABE FORD <br />ROAD. <br />C. THAT APPLICANT DO NOTHING, IN THE CONSTRUCTION, SALE OR <br />MAINTENANCE OF THIS SUBDIVISION, TO ENCOURAGE USE OF CABE <br />FORD ROAD AS AN ENTRANCE TO THE ENO RIVER STATE PARK. <br />
