Hello,
I am wri ng re: the "Request for Site Plan Approval" for the parcel in Leeds, MA on Evergreen Rd., just off
the corner of Evergreen Rd and Chestnut Ave.
A two-family dwelling is too large for the parcel, and the number of cars associated with two families
(realis cally, an average of two cars per family, so four cars total) will block the road if parked on the street
(as likely, given the space needed for 4 garages).
This will create a safety hazard, as children ride their bicycles to/from and a er school on that street, and
sight lines would be reduced/eliminated by any cars on the street. I know this, as I ride or walk in front of
this parcel every day with children.
In summary, the City should not grant the right to build a two-family home on this small parcel.
Respec ully,
Tanya Dragan
