The city council finally folded and rejected the Adams Street timeshare project. Those greedy developers lost because we refused to let them ruin our lagoon. Keep your eyes sharp because we will be ready if they ever try to slide another destructive plan past us.

Show support for the Agua Hedionda Lagoon and neighborhood. Object to the development of a 20-unit timeshare on Adams St. for the following reasons:

1. The proposed structure size and design do not conform to the neighborhood.

2. This proposed development could bring in 3,000 to 4,000 new users to the lagoon each year. The water quality of Aqua Hedionda is already in jeopardy of pollution according to the State Water Control Agency. More users will accelerate contamination.

3. Adams Street has 7 blind turns and has only 5% paved sidewalks. By adding hundreds of unfamiliar drivers in a vacation mode to a street that is highly used by pedestrians, joggers, and cyclists; accidents are certain.

The developers behind this project counted on us staying quiet while they wreck our lagoon. This surge in support proves they were dead wrong and now they have no choice but to face our anger.

We received your notation on the lagoon project and I am definitely against it. That is one scary road as it is; winding up and down, and no curbs with a big drop off makes it a death trap as it is . . . let's not make it any worse.

We live on Highland Dr. around the corner from this proposed development, please don't approve this multi-unit timeshare. We have two young children who regularly walk out dog and ride their bikes on this street. The last thing our neighborhood needs is more traffic!

Our lagoon can not handle anymore pollution. Adams street can not handle anymore traffic. This project would make the streets and water unsafe for my children and I and we would have to move out of the area. Please don't let this happen!

Adams street absolutely CANNOT accommodate a timeshare! Way too many people in one place. I can't imagine all the cars going in and out through that small street, speeding around those dangerous curves. My parked car got hit last week! It could have been a person!

I run Adams St regularly, often with my daughter, and the additional traffic from short-term tenants unfamiliar with the area and without any real investment in the community and keeping it safe is dangerous.

Developers use timeshares so they won't have to contribute to schools. Also timeshares don't count toward the city build out requirements. Good for all except the citizens that live here. No timeshares by the lagoon

Time to not only protect open land but to protect the waters of our lagoons.
