These schools are already serving more students than had been originally anticipated. Our other major concerns are for the Environmental Issues involved, including the purity of our water, flood control and all of the other problems that occur when these Environmental Issues are ignored/disregarded when establishing such a huge project. Before even considering this proposal the City of Spokane Valley should require an Environmental Impact Statement, especially due to the extensive changes being proposed to the community with a project the size of this one. As an added comment, the streets/roads involved are already on the edge of being over-burdened daily with far more traffic then was anticipated when this area was first established. H.W.
