A Preliminary Plan Review for a project of 313 RENTAL UNITS, 35 BUILDINGS, PLUS AMENITY BUILDINGS on 41 Acres, across from the Clairemont Subdivision and at the end of the Arlington Subdivision will be presented to the Lancaster Planning Committee on May 17, 2016 at City Hall in Lancaster, SC at 6:00 P.M By TWO Capital Partners. The neighbors surrounding this area must unite to stop this project.
A project like this has the potential of:
1) Lowering our property values.
2) Adding a minimum of 1200 more people to this already congested area.
3) Crowding our already over crowded schools.
4) Adding more traffic,
5) Bringing crime to the area.
WE CAN STOP THIS PROJECT IF WE PULL TOGETHER!!!.
We need bodies at the Planning Board Meeting!
Please meet at the Arlington Clubhouse, wear a WHITE SHIRT OR TEE and plan to carpool to the meeting. Assembly will begin at 5:00 P.M. and leave no later than 5:30 P.M.
You can also sign a paper copy of this petition beginning at 6:30 A.M. to 8:00 A.M. May 2nd, 3rd and 4th, come to the Arlington Clubhouse to sign a petition against this project. The Clubhouse will also be open from 5:00 P.M. to 7:00 P.M. on May 4th for the purpose of gathering signatures.
PLEASE SHOW YOUR SUPPORT TO STOP THIS PROJECT AND SIGN THIS PETITION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are against building of this complex! Our local infrastructures can not handle the current volume of traffic let alone adding to it. This creates risk of further overcrowding and prohibits emergency vehicles and current residents from navigating our already overcrowded streets during high volume periods!
The county infrastructure is already spread way too thin (schools, roads, fire, police, ect). Apartments such as this are a quick buck for our community, but do not improve it long term.
The proposed development that would have given us homes instead if apartments was denied. This would make it impossible to get onto Calvin Hall for the morning commute. I already can not get onto 160 making a left to go to work ami supposed to use a helicopter. Many residents face the same hardship
I'm a proponent of growth, but only if the infrastructure can handle it. Right now, our roads are full (and full of potholes) and our schools are struggling to stay at or below capacity. We need thoughtful planning - and execution- before we allow more homes to be built.
There are already too many single family homes being built in this area. Traffic is a nightmare and a 313 unit apartment development will absolutely bottleneck our roads and drive down real estate prices in the area that took nearly 10 years to recover from the last market hit.
Enough overgrowth
STOP!!

2 issues that have to be addressed further than the plans that are already in place before something like this can be considered and must town 1. the schools are already very crowded and the current planned new schools are only a bandaid on a gunshot wound if these projects continue to get approved 2. the roads and traffic
