Judith 3. McDonnell CITY CLERK PETITION TO: DOWNEY CITY COUNCIL AND DOWNEY COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RE: PROPOSED DOWNEY REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AMENDMENT NO. 5A We, the undersigned Downey residents residing on Manatee Street, south of the Downey Community Hospital, between Brookshire and Patton Road, are opposed to the closing of Margaret Street, between Brookshire and Patton Road, north of — the Downey Community Hospital. The closing of said road would cause traffic to be diverted to our residential street. This would put an unfair amount of through traffic on our street, which would disturb our peace and quiet, as well as impinge upon our safety. Furthermore, there is presently a proposal for two five . story medical office buildings, and a parking structure, to be built on the north end of the Downey Community Hospital property. If these improvements are built, this will, of course, add a great deal of additional traffic to our area. This additional traffic will be doubled if Margaret Street is closed. DATED: June 10, 1991.

Response to the comments: The Redevelopment Plan Amendment 5A does not call for closure of Margaret Street between Brookshire and Patton Road. It is acknowledged; however, that the City Council and the Community Development Commission could, at some point in the future, determine that Margaret Street should be vacated or closed. This activity is not mandated by the Plan but would be allowed under the Plan. The objections are hereby overruled.
