Resident Voices Concerns Over Upton Crossing Development's Impact on Traffic, Flooding, and Wetlands
A resident, Gordy Weber, raised concerns about the proposed Upton Crossing development, which seeks to rezone from R20 medium density to high density planned development. The proposal includes 360 apartment units and 95 individual home sites. Weber highlighted potential negative impacts on traffic at the intersection of Taylor Road and Broad Street, issues with prevalent flooding due to runoff, and the proposed construction over two of three wetlands on the 60-acre site. He emphasized that the group is not against development but believes this is the wrong development for the specific property, which is currently zoned for medium density, general business, and residential use. He provided the council with an outline of concerns and mentioned attending the July 1st zoning board meeting.
