As a Savannah native of many generations, it seems to me grossly insensitive to the layout and evolution of the City to build an underground garage in what is a true neighborhood. Many more cars on our narrow streets, large constantly running noisy ventilation system, like at Ellis Square garage and constantly running pump. And the agony of construction, large earth moving equipment with constant horrid beep when in reverse and worse assaults to the residents.
Mary supported: Oppose Underground Parking Garage in Historic Victorian DistrictI have received a response from Councilwoman Linda Wilder-Bryan, which I appreciate. However her response refers to helping "those most directly impacted." I find this to be ambiguous and would appreciate some clarification. As Savannah native and resident who does not, however, live in this neighborhood I still feel directly impacted by the destruction of my city's historic resources and their replacement by incompatible development. Who is Councilwoman Wilder-Bryan pledging to assist ? Please clarify. Thank you.
Joanne supported: Oppose Underground Parking Garage in Historic Victorian DistrictThis project would exacerbate a chronic flooding issue west of Forsyth Park and endanger the foundations of the historic homes that define this neighborhood. Additionally, the parking garage would encourage increased traffic and congestion in one of the last authentic downtown neighborhoods occupied by Savannah locals that actually live and work in the city.
Blake supported: Oppose Underground Parking Garage in Historic Victorian DistrictThis small wooded parcel nestled between existing homes is an inappropriate place to cram high density housing units. It will create issues with traffic. The proposed retention area likely doesn't address that removal of existing trees and natural soils and replacing them with pavement and other impervious surfaces would require additional space for flood control. Pinellas County and Dunedin suffered from devastating flooding after Hurricanes Helene and Milton in 2024. That underscores the importance of resilience and responsible development in the town. Please stop or modify this plan.
Leslie supported: Opposition to The Flats on Main, Dunedin FLThe current water issues have impacted so many families both physically and financially. Water is a basic necessity, safe water even more of a necessity. The inability to use water that we already pay for is insane and the fact that we have to go buy more water to cover for your mistakes is even worse. Not to mention that there are people who are stuck drinking tap water and who can’t afford to buy it because taxes and inflation is so high. Have you thought of the long term financial impact the city will incur when we all die of a disease from drinking the water. It’s just a matter of time before the law suits start because it will be linked. By building up Attleboro as quick as you did put all of us in jeopardy. Not to mention the impact that this has had on our police department, our school system, wildlife, our health. This isn’t about just water. This is about the whole picture. Stop building, it’s not sustainable and we don’t need anymore people.
Michelle supported: Temporary moratorium on NEW construction until issues are addressedYou’re not alone — a community of supporters is ready to back you.
