From email:
The following invitation was sent to Dominion and the City planning office. This email is being sent to you because we feel that you may also be interested in this subject. OHNA also extends an open invitation to all interested parties.
To whom it may concern:
The Oregon Hill Neighborhood Association (OHNA) would like to invite you to our next meeting on Tues. Sept. 27th at 7:00 p.m. at the William Byrd Community House, located on the 200 block of South Cherry Street. As the neighborhood in closest proximity, and with close historical ties to Tredegar, we have questions and concerns regarding the recently announced projects in Monday’s Richmond Times Dispatch article of a road connecting Second Street with Tredegar Street and a new amphitheater.
Among our concerns are:
Is Dominion planning additional construction on its property, or planning to construct the tower that was included in the decades old special use permit?
How will the proposed connector affect the historic canal and surroundings?
Has there been a traffic study regarding the effect of the connector on the surrounding neighborhood?
What is the proposed configuration of the proposed amphitheater, and how will the sound from this amphitheater impact Oregon Hill?
How will parking on Oregon Hill be impacted by the proposed changes?Please let us know if you will be able to attend our neighborhood meeting.
Thank you for your consideration of this request.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Hancock,
President, OHNA
