We are concerned, however, with two things: <br />1, There should be enough parking for at least one car per unit as public transit does <br />not get <br />people to all places they need to go, and <br />2, Transit Hubs are a good idea until one realizes BART is overcrowded as it is and we <br />are planning <br />to worsen that situation by placing 7,000 more people close to an overcrowded BART <br />system to <br />overcrowd it more. We need to consider alternatives other than just BART for <br />transport. We are <br />not sure what that would be, but just are bringing that to the attention of City Hall at <br />this point. <br /> <br />That being said, we realize the need to build up as we just don't have the land for <br />expansion in <br />San Leandro to spread out. <br /> <br />Thank you for your hard work <br /> <br />Corey & Ute Anderson <br />1170 Oakes Boulevard <br />San Leandro, CA 94577 <br />510-430-2998 <br />
