Attachment 3: Email petition dated June 4, 2019 from C. Kitson, President, Erskine Lane Strata

From: Carol A. Kitson Sent: Tuesday, June 4, 2019 6:06 PM To: Mayor And Council Email mayorandcouncil@viewroyal.ca Subject: Petition from Erskine/Stoneridge

Dear Mayor and Council,

Please find attached a petition of 60 signatures comprising of residents on both sides of Watkiss Way -- Erskine Lane Strata to the south and the Stoneridge neighbourhood to the north. As President of Erskine Lane strata, I have heard loud and clear that pedestrian and traffic safety is paramount for families in this area. We worry for our elderly, children and all residents. This is especially so given the huge amount of current and future development that is coming on lots 7, 9 and 10. Residents expect Council will ensure the developers will build, and/or contribute to necessary infrastructure, including through late-comers agreements.

The Erskine Lane sidewalk must be to town standards(concrete), the full length on the south side (strata side) where there is ample space, as View Royal already owns a right of way on the Strata side (see attached CRD map) and completed before #7 Erskine has an occupancy permit, so that residents have safe access to the Galloping Goose Trail and before the traffic volume probably doubles. It doesn't make sense to put a temporary asphalt sidewalk on #7/#9 side when most of the sidewalk will be along #9 Erskine and who knows when that will sell. There must be two speed humps on Erskine Lane to slow the speed of vehicles. There must be a lit pedestrian path on the CRD water right of way from Erskine to VGH transit terminus. The area wants a vehicle controlled light or a roundabout at the Watkiss Way/Erskine/Stoneridge intersection in place as soon as #7 Erskine Lane development is approved.

We are also concerned about where all the trades people will park for #7 development. Perhaps the town needs temporary parking permits on Watkiss Way or maybe they can park on the CRD right of way? There is certainly no room on Erskine!

Lastly, we expect the all the building's designs, landscaping etc. will be of the highest standards to compliment the ambiance and property values in the area, with ample green and natural areas.

Thank you. Carol Kitson President, Erskine Lane Strata
