LYONS CROSSING – OPPOSE The PCPOA board believes Market Street is the most logical and viable option, and the City should do more due diligence and research for this option. Rationale is that Market Street currently exists, has a wide pathway for expansion, and allows for multiple access points. 13TH STREET UPGRADE – NOT OPPOSE The 13th Street option could be acceptable depending on the plan and traffic patterns that are created. The crossing upgrade would have to be extensive to ensure safety and accommodate flow for the increased traffic and population. RAVELLO DEVELOPMENT—NOT OPPOSE PCPOA does not oppose the Ravello project, but watching very closely. However, plans are preliminary and support will depend on the final version. In the interest of public safety and in the aftermath of the winter storms, which left some of the canyon crossings and roads damaged, PCPOA is working with the City of Santa Clarita to develop potential solutions.Opposition by PCPOA to the Lyons Avenue DEIR Proposed At-Grade Rail Crossing and its relationship to the Dockweiler Drive Alignment Project
