Click on the map to make it bigger.This is a drawing of the lot plat surrounding the site of the proposed mixed-use development. The area surrounded by the red border is the parcel that the developers apparently have under contract. The area enclosed by the blue line is the portion of that parcel that is currently zoned R-4 (single family residence) and is the area currently occupied by the old-growth forest buffer between the shopping center and the Windemere Drive neighborhood. Hereafter to be known as "The Forest". Notice the long narrow triangle of land touching Windemere Drive that is part of the development parcel.
Does this mean that residents of the new development will be able to park on Windemere Drive and walk up to their apartments?

I support a neighborhood effort to prevent the development from rezoning the R4 land, and instead get a legally binding commitment from the developer to cede the R4 land permanently as parkland. This makes the land nearly $0 tax, shows good faith, and probably does more to protect the homes on Windemere than anything else we might accomplish.
When you saw the architect's presentation, what did they say they were going to do with the land which is currently R4 and forested?
