Stop Brighton's Proposed Apartment Plan - 360 Multi-family Apartments on Corner of Mc Millan and Meridian Rd
360 multi-family apartment complex is proposed by Brighton on the corner of Mc Millen and Meridian Rd. Property values for all homes will drop, not just those near the apartment complex. Traffic is already congested at the Heritage Middle School intersection. Morning and evening traffic will add at least 500 more drivers to our already swollen and congested roads and all will be coming from our neighborhood. Folks, especially high school kids, will be using our community streets to ingress/e-gress around traffic congestion. Schools are already well over capacity. Where will the money come from to build the new schools that will be needed to house the potential 700 children? Community parks will see additional traffic and we will therefore see more need for HOA dollars in maintenance. Crime will rise.
We were told it is too late to stop this by Brighton, but no application has been received by Meridian City Planning and Zoning yet, so We CAN STOP THIS!

I find it ironic that you're against apartments (rentals) but you're ok with home rentals..... don't you own a 2nd home in Paramount that you are renting out??? Seems like the home rentals ALWAYS look worse than apartments do, all sorts of crap in the yards, etc.
Seriously? The intersection at Heritage is already dangerous as it is. Adding 500 cars is asking for a serious accident. Stop this now.
traffic on meridian is already a total nightmare. adding 360 units there is gonna make getting to work impossible. meridian city needs to wake up and look at the actual roads before approving more junk.
My kids go to school right there and it is already packed. Where are all these new kids supposed to go? Brighton just wants a quick buck and leaves us with the mess.
***** If Brighton had built these first, Paramount would not be the premiere community it is now. I can see the other new developers in the area celebrating. This will drive the Paramount buyers to them. If buyers have a choice, they won't want to be near high density, cheap rentals. Hey you Paramount builders (besides Brighton), what actions are you taking?????
