1	Neighbors for Wintersburg Wetlands Restoration
2	Increased Traffic Congestion Graham Street already congested at peak periods Congestion will be worsened by: Marine View gym (in progress) Parkside (proposed) Hearthside/Fieldstone (proposed) Circulation Alternative B needed to reduce the additional burden on Graham Street!
3	Restriping – a Fraudulent Mitigation The EIR proposes left-turn median striping to mitigate Graham congestion But drivers are already using a de-facto left-turn median of their own creation So painting some extra lines in the middle of Graham won’t change anything! How about conditioning for a traffic signal at Graham & Glenstone instead?
4	Increased Traffic Noise Moderate traffic noise already from cars “punching it” on northbound Graham to get over the Wintersburg bridge A signal at Parkside will cause the same kind of noise for southbound Graham The EIR only discusses CNEL generalities without mentioning this traffic noise! CNEL inaccurate due to stale traffic study
5	Left Turn Trouble at Kenilworth Backups caused by the Parkside signal will create left turn delays when exiting Kenilworth onto northbound Graham Southbound cars waiting at the signal will cause dangerous visibility problems “Keep Intersection Clear” striping won’t solve the visibility problem
6	EIR Deficiencies – Traffic Data Warner Ave data collected in 1994 and 1996 Graham Street data collected in 1996 Traffic counts that are 6-8 years stale do not accurately represent current traffic levels! Some projected counts are dubious…
7	Omitted New Commercial Traffic
8	Omitted Marine View Enrollment Growth of 14%
9	Omitted Glenstone U-turn
10	No Marine View Drop-offs?
11	Graham & Glenstone Peak Traffic Thursday, February 14, 2002, 7:35AM
12	Other Concerns Slater Pump Station building permit and throttle-backs Water quality impact of increased pumping Shifting the flood risk Fire station response times Storm drain odors Bolsa-Fairview earthquake fault
13	Accuracy Counts! Invalid maps at study sessions Missing sections from final EIR Egregious typos (“4 miles to Marine View”) Half-baked fire response testing Stale, fantasy traffic data Botched staff report distribution Staff in denial regarding County permit requirements for Slater Pump Station
14	It’s Simply a Bad Project with a Bad EIR! Too many negative impacts on existing neighborhoods Too many omitted impacts and non-mitigations in the very deficient EIR A failure of vision not in keeping with the forward-looking city that Huntington Beach ought to be!
