We will have a report of the highlights/lowlights from Monday’s meeting tomorrow, but for now we wanted to flag the volume of new information that was submitted by the developers and their attorney, Gregg Adelman, regarding their conditional use application.
We are also disappointed in the rather obvious and developer-friendly report from WFMZ report David Kostival, which chose to frame its story around a sidebar conversation whereby the developer’s traffic engineer, Chris Williams of McMahon Associates, proved that a warehouse (which is being proposed) has less traffic than a shopping center (which the same developer proposed a decade ago). While this is undeniably true, the presentation of facts last night was evident: on the record, Mr. Williams acknowledged that their traffic studies did not take into account several other significant warehouse and building projects within a 3-4 mile radius of this proposed million-square-foot property.
How on earth can we take their traffic studies as fact when it ignores much of the area’s traffic, both present and future?
We have procured all of the new exhibits from the Township and they are now in our Save Maidencreek dropbox, which can be accessed here.
What you’ll find at your disposal:
- Full videos of the November, December, January and February conditional use hearings, uncut and in full.
- Official transcripts of the record for the November and December meetings. (We’re still waiting for the stenographer to submit January to the township, which doesn’t bode well for February being available any time soon.)
- New exhibits, which were unavailable prior to Monday’s meeting:
