The overall environment will be impacted negatively and we need to voice our concerns.

The area is primarily a single family community and should remain as is. Additionally, the proposed development woundi bring about extreme congestion to an already overcrowded roadway system. Further, our new school would face then insurmountable task of accommodating the additional students which woulld be a result of the proposed develop. Enough is enough! Vote no to the developers plan. Thank you, Ray Cardella

This is nothing but a huge negative for Porters Neck. Increased traffic we don't need. Will drive more traffic thru The Vineyards which has lot of young families w/ kids. Will also have a negative affect on property values.

The Logan Development in Porters Neck should not be approved. The roads near the planned development do not have the capacity to handle the traffic for the proposed high density development. The proposed development will create traffic safety issues for Porters Neck residents and elementary school students, families driving to the school and school buses. The parcel must remain at its current zoning level.

Unbridled development will destroy our neighborhood while the developers take the money and run.

In this narrow patch of land it is being designed for 14 apartment buildings with 575 parking spaces, plus town homes and single family homes. To get right to the point, our small traffic circle at Porters Neck Road, Sharaz Way and Edgewater Club Road leading to Figure Eight Island and Blair Elementary School will be overwhelmed. I addition, the traffic light at Porters Neck Road and Market Street is already challenged by all the commercial development at that intersection, which continues to grow with a new hotel being built. At the information session conducted over a week ago, it was standing room only with 200 people held outside by the fire marshal. They were allowed in later for an unplanned second session. Residents are very concerned. If unchecked, The "Port City" will soon have to change its nick name to the "Apartment/Storage Unit" city. We hope to organize and engage some of our more influential residents on Bald Eagle Lane and Figure Eight Island to help in at least modifying the proposed development to something realistic. Being reasonable people, growth and development is a good thing, over development and high concentration of residents is not. With a more measured decision process on your part, perhaps you will modify the development to just single family homes, and not the apartments and town homes being proposed.

This area can not accommodate another 800 and 1000 more people on this two lane country road, not to mention the existing over crowding in our new elementary school. No to this development as it exists. No apartments!

Traffic and accidents on Market St. and environmental impacts by over-development are already out of control. Put a moratorium on high-density developments in this area and preserve single-family zoning.

Density of homes should be no higher than that of the immediately surrounding neighborhoods

All this traffic would be traveling through my neighborhood. Please no apartments!!! Single family homes only!!! Let's keep the neighborhood quality at a level similar to the surrounding neighborhoods!

I can't imagine the strain this will cause to an already overbuilt area with more crawling traffic, more road rage and stress on schools, infrastructure and general quality of life. Stop the greed of overbuilding!

The proposed development will have severe consequences for Tibbys Branch. We have the potential to experience MORE flooding. The Porter's Neck area does not have the infrastructure to support this many new residents.

Wilmington and surrounding areas is being ruined by large development. Our infrastructure cannot support large development and green areas are lost forever.
