Transport Terminal

Hello Mr. Szymczak and Windsor City Council

I am writing in regard to the possible proposed site at 2650 Metcalfe Street (west side of Drouillard Road, north of Metcalfe Street) for a new Transport Terminal to possibly be located at the above address.

I live very close to the above mentioned address. I have lived at 1374 Albert Rd. for approx. 12 years. Of the many reasons I have chosen to remain to reside in this area is due to what this area offers such as being a quiet, peaceful, clean residential area to live in Windsor, Ontario.

• Transport Terminal

• With Ford City continuing to improve our community & our personal living conditions, I feel that allowing a Transport terminal to be allowed at the above location would diminish the excellent quality of life to which myself, along with my neighbours have become accustomed to living.

• Our quality of life would definitely be compromised...not only would the noise of these large & small transport vehicles become unbearable but the dust & quality of air we breathe would be detrimental to our health.

• In my opinion, having a transport terminal at this location would cause the air quality to be considered an ongoing pollutant.

• The noise, debris, dust would likely be of a health hindrance to all who live near the proposed location.

• I also feel that the value of our properties would be lessened due to the above mentioned reasons.

• i.e. noise/air pollutants.

The quality of life residents that live near/in this area would definitely be lessened. Not only for the many elderly residents but also for the younger children who live & play in the area.

I, respectfully request that this proposed Transport Terminal be located outside of mine & my neighbours neighbourhood.
Perhaps an area that is not in a residential area would be a safer choice for a Transport terminal.

Yours to oblige,

Dixie Johns
