LAKE PLACID Neighbors of a property where a new housing development has been proposed brought forward several concerns at a public hearing on the project on Wednesday, Feb. 17. The neighbors mostly live on either Acorn Street or Chickadee Lane, both of which connect to Wesvalley Road, where the Fawn Valley development is proposed. They questioned the impact the new homes would have on traffic, safety and quality of life for surrounding property owners. Some of the neighbors who spoke were critical of the amount of tree-cutting that would happen if the project moves forward, while others noted that when paired with a separate housing complex proposed on that same street, to be called MacKenzie Outlook, the impact of the development on traffic at the Saranac Avenue intersection could prove unsafe or cumbersome. Neighbors also shared concerns about the density of the development and possible noise pollution.
