Transit Center Development Concerns
NCTD has submitted a Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) to the City for development of the Oceanside Transit Center (OTC) with 7 Story, mixed use project including apartments, commercial, parking, a hotel, NCTC offices and a new transportation hub.
OCNA is reviewing this document and found some major impacts to our neighbors around this project! Key issues are:
1) Routing dozens of buses and 1000+ additional cars on our small streets (Michigan and Missouri) creating safety hazards for pedestrians and cyclists!
2) This routing will wipe out our limited street parking for residents and businesses like ACE Hardware and Local Tap House (LTH).
3) NCTD has not done proper traffic analysis to identify and correct the impacts of 100% increase of traffic!
4) This creates a HUGE air quality and noise problems. The trains may blow their horns up to 10 times per arrival and departure!
***PLEASE email these concerns BEFORE Oct 18th to Rob Dmohowski, Principal Planner at rdmohowski@oceansideca.org.
