I'm sick of all the excess crap you keep putting up here. The area doesn't have the infrastructure or roads to support more expansion driven by you're padded pocketsRyan sornberger (Buford, 2023-10-11)

I’m signing this petition because I oppose the rezoning of the designated space off Hamilton Mill and Sardis Church Roads for apartments and retail. This area is already over saturated with everything! Traffic is so congested and driving is so dangerous in this area that one can barely leave home or retail without taking a chance on your life…this is daily, at any time of day! This area does not have sufficient infrastructure planning for roads to safely accommodate the current traffic, and adding additional traffic from an apartment complex would see significant traffic increase and more traffic dangerous pattern changes. Some impatient dangerous drivers already take chances because the traffic is so heavy and people are discourteous. And who even pays attention to road signs anymore? As for the land…it seems to be too close to the school! It could be put to better use by building a park, or a center for school and community use. Or how about the novel idea of just allowing it to exist as is? I vote! I pay taxes! It’s too much! NO!!!Carolyn Fields (Buford, 2023-10-11)

This area is already over-crowded. This building project would would negatively impact this area even more. People move to the suburbs to get away from grid-locked traffic, over crowding, etc...This area already has worse traffic than downtown Atlanta.Mathew Witting (Buford, 2023-10-11)

My son will be attending Seckinger High School and this area does not need massive congestion! Mill Creek experienced major traffic issues with all the new homes and these areas should not feel like mini cities. If I wanted to live surrounded by congestion, I would've moved downtownMichele Kiefert (Buford, 2023-10-12)

Allowing this to be built there seems like a big hazard, especially with it being right behind the high school. How are we gonna protect tAllowing this to be built, there seems like a big hazard, especially with it being right behind the high school. How are we gonna protect these children. We already have enough drugs and crime going on in the schools without adding more to it.Karen Lewis (Buford, 2023-10-12)

The number of apartments around the Mall of GA and along Buford Dr. has increased congestion. Hamilton Mill is already congested. Adding more apartments is only going to compound the problem AND put a burden on the schools. Please STOP the irresponsible, out-of-control apartment building. The area needs more family restaurants (Outback, Red Lobster, Waffle House, Culver’s, BBQ, etc.) rather than more apartments. Thank you.Lynda Mauborgne (Buford, 2023-10-14)

This would be devastating to traffic patterns in an already over burdened area and what is really needed is Greenspace, Aquatic center, and a buffer zone to protect the high school students.Kari Salomon (Lawrenceville, 2023-10-14)

#2251
We do not have adequate infrastructure to support the proposed development. Our traffic has increased 100 fold in this specific area on Hamilton Mill Rd alone over past 10-15 yrs. Adding more retail space this close to overpass and a school will also increase the volume of traffic on and off I-85 ramps, increasing the probability of accidents and more road rage, both of which are increasing in number already due to volume of traffic.Paula Buker (Buford, 2023-10-15)
#2254
I’ve lived here for 29 years and our community has translations from a quiet, rural community to a hectic, overgrown suburb. We don’t have the infrastructure to support the people we have.

Our roads are glutted with traffic. Crime is steadily rising as more and more people move in. We have loved raising our family in a town that both city and small town elements. We do NOT want to become like other areas overrun with traffic, crime and crowded schools and infrastructure. Now is the time to stop, assess, and decide what Buford should become in the future.Nilha Pearce (Buford, 2023-10-17)

I object to this construction because it increases congestion and suffocation in the city.Suaad Alkhafaji (Buford , 2023-10-17)
#2299
Mill Creek HS just got relief from Seckinger HS opening. Our school system is struggling and cannot find qualified teachers. It is irresponsible to expect the school system to handle more development when they are in dire straits as far as staff is concerned. Our roads cannot handle the amount of traffic we have. A traffic study was not completed to my knowledge, that shows current numbers. The Hamilton Mill interchange with i85 sees heavy traffic all day. Instead of widening roads, our commissioners put speed tables or other traffic control measures, which force people onto the main roads, to avoid the stress on their vehicles. Nothing was thought out when developing this area and this will only stress a poorly developed area further.Philana Nowak (Hoschton, 2023-10-17)

Our quality of life has drastically decreased in the past number of years due to overpopulation in this area. We have consistently had bad car accidents just in front of our neighborhood and we can’t get out all times of the day. The land next to a school should NOT be for more housing!! Especially apartments!Angie Barrett (Dacula, 2023-10-18)

We need a rec center more.We do not have the roads for 2000 more cars on our roads .
Cheryl Ross (Buford, 2023-10-18)
#2315
I am signing because as a student in this cluster that recently started driving that also plans to live in buford for a while, there is no possible way a two land road could handle 700 more apartments. School traffic is already worst in the mornings and afternoons. Even a thought of 500+ families move in it was be a complete disaster. Currently are many many houses, condos, apartments nearby that are on the market and building now, no need for more to build. Seckinger needs more fields, activity centers, and as suggested the aquatic center for future athletes and students. I don’t understand why buford needs more housing. And especially RIGHT NEXT to a school??? You’re crazy.lilian cao (Buford, 2023-10-18)

I think is enough, no more apartment buildings. A lot of us moved here for that reasonNorma Macias (Buford, 2023-10-19)
#2319
The traffic in Hamilton mill is bad enough already and can’t handle the crowds we have now in our area. There are 4 local retail spaces available within 2 miles of this proposed location. Stop 🛑 building we can’t afford it now or handle the influx of people!! It’s too much!! Please consider the quality of life for the ones of us already living here.Tina Vuick (Dacula, 2023-10-19)

Overdevelop is already putting a strain on our area and we need it to stop.Bonnie Goodheart (Dacula, 2023-10-19)
#2323
I do not see the need for this development in this area. There are new subdivisions/apartments being constructed already that need to be filled before more are added. If I wanted to live in a congested area like Atlanta, I would live in Atlanta. Enough is enough. It's really just developers wanting to make money and for me, this is about the community in which I chose to live in. The more apartments only mean to me more crime. I've watched as each subdivision/complex has been erected around me how crime has increased with each. It's not safe now to live in this area. Keep adding more living spaces and it won't even be safe to be in your front yard. This used to be such a nice, peaceful community to live. Not so much anymore and I blame the additions of subdivisions and apartment complexes. Check out the amount of crime before and after each addition. You will see it increase after each. And look who benefits from the additional living spaces. It's not you and me, the people living nearby. It's the people who get their money for building and move onto the next place. Gwinnett County let's them build because let's face it, it's more money for the government. They could care less what we think honestly. It's all about the money.Bonita Prickett (Buford, 2023-10-19)
#2324
i would suggest that current market conditions would warrant a denied zoning request and not just "tabled" our apartment delinquency rate is still rediculously high.court dates are still 6 months out.and this is nationwide its just not recieving enogh media coverage,our last count was 900,000 with gwinnett county sheriff,and over 3200 in fulton county,scaryBrandi Calcagno (Winder, 2023-10-19)
#2325
I do it want to see this area continuing to have more traffic issues and turning this area into Gwinnett place mall. This suburb has already reached its limits on the amount of homes in the areas and adding apartments will only increase stress on community traffic and school systems.jeron bargen (Buford, 2023-10-19)

#2374
I'm signing because I'm worried about increased traffic without any improvements made to roads and other infrastucture to alleviate the congestion or improve safety. Despite what the developer says, this is not a walkable area. 700 more housing units will exacerbate the already overcrowded schools in this area. Additionally, I believe there is already sufficient retail and commercial space in this vicinity.Theresa Ponader (Buford, 2023-10-19)

Too busy and overcrowded in Buford especially by mall of ga. Too much traffic. My daughter goes to the high school in that area and it will just cause more traffic on that side of town.

#2382
I’m signing because we have a child at Seckinger and another one going there in a year and 1/2. This is a bad place to add additional traffic and the addition students will crowd the schools . Put the apartment in a school zone that is not already overpopulated and on a road that could handle the extra traffic.Holly Liliac (Buford, 2023-10-19)
