>Valley Renewal : Yes or No
Supporter believe that:-Valley’s expansion cannot be scaled back, nor is a split campus an option
-Valley’s expansion will have little impact on the quality of life
-The addition of 1000 parking spaces will not result in more traffic
-10+ years of construction will not be an inconvenience or put children at BF or Travell at risk
-Valley’s expansion will not strain roads, water, or other Village services
-Valley cannot provide quality care unless the expansion plans is accepted as proposed by Valley.
-Valley should have H-zone status which grants them a carte blanche for future expansion
-All other options were explored and are too expensive
-It is OK if residents properties are condemned to make way for the expansion since it will result in better traffic flow.
Opponents believe that:
-Valley should scale back it’s expansion or explore a split campus option
-Valley can provide quality health care with a more modest expansion
-Valley’s expansion will have a have a negative impact on quality of life
-Valley’s expansion will have a negative impact on property values.
-Valley’s expansion will strain Village resources, and lead to higher taxes to expand infrastructure and result in the need for more police etc.
-10+ years of construction will necessitate hundreds of daily bus trips and the movement of millions of tons of debris which will have a negative impact on quality of life and children’s education/health at local schools
-The Planning Board ignored their concerns
-The Master Plan change process and PB review was suspect
