Yes they did an impact study. Of course they didn't pay any attention to local feedback. I will ask about a sound wall, but we are against the wall on466 so I doubt they will listen. We also had meetings about the proposed idea for traffic light at the Lazamora gate. I voted with closing the gate forever, but the powers that be are going to put the light there. I believe the reason a commercial development is ok'd across 466 is that they will have to share the cost of the light. I'm looking for a courtyard villa in the middle of the Villages as we speak.
