From: Robin Bousa Re: Trip Generation Compar.son to Support Gateway Hills Variance
Managing Director for Apartments & Townhouses at Gateway Hills
Nashua Technology Park — Spit Brook Road, Nashua, NH
This memorandum has been prepared to support the variance request for the portion of the Gateway Hills
development program that was previously intended to house 240,000 SF of research and development (R&D) space
in two buildings at Nashua Technology Park located off Spit Brook Road in Nashua, NH. The property is located
behind (north of} 100, 200, and 300 Innovative Way, east of Research Drive, and south the Tara Heights Apartments
(see Exhibit 1). In lieu of the research and development space, the John Flatley Company proposes to construct
approximately 268 apartment units and 28 —
townhouses.
Trip Generation
Trip generation estimates for the 240,000 SF of
research and development space and the
residential units were calculated using rates
published by the Institute of Transportation
Engineers (ITE) in Trip Generation’. As shown in
Table 1, a direct comparison of the R&D and
residential development programs shows that
the residential uses will generate substantially
less traffic than the R&D use. More specifically,
the residential uses are expected to generate 215
fewer trips entering the site during the weekday
morning peak hour, but 30 more trips exiting -
for a net difference of 185 total fewer trips.
During the weekday evening peak hour, the
residential land uses are expected to generate 35
more trips entering the site, but 165 fewer
exiting — for a net difference of 130 trips.
Supporting trip generation calculations are
attached herein.

Use Codes 760 (Research and Development Center), 220 (Multifamily Low-Rise for Townhouses), and 227 (Multifamily
Mid-Rise for Apartments).
Conclusion
The proposed residential uses are anticipated to result in substantially lower trip generation during the weekday
morning and evening peak hours when compared to the previously proposed research and development buildings.
Perhaps more importantly, the change in land use provides the added benefit of providing more balance to the
directional flow of traffic entering and exiting Nashua Technology Park during the weekday peak hours. Under the
existing conditions, the dominant traffic flow patterns are reflective of an office park with heavy flows entering the site
in the morning and exiting the site in the evening. The residential dominant traffic flow will be in the reverse direction
and will have no notable impact on the internal roadway system at Nashua Technology Park, nor the external impact
on Spit Brook Road at the intersection of Tara Boulevard.

Re: Opposition to 200 Innovative Way Use Variance by John J. Flatley Company
Dear Chairwoman MacKay:
Lam writing in opposition to the requested use variance from land use code 190-15. Where the applicant
is seeking a use variance to develop 266 residential apartment style units and 28 townhomes style units.
Without question the City of Nashua needs more housing and as a community we should strive toward
creating more housing of all types lor our residents: however. that does not mean we should create
housing at all costs. In fact, there is a neighborhood and a community that will be impacted should sou
approve this variance. The fact is approving this variance will be contrary to the public interest, because
the land is zoned as park industrial and is one of the last few tracts of large land areas available to attract a
large number of jobs and be an economic engine for the southern New Hanipshire region.
I am asking that sou reject this variance request and recommend that the applicant more appropriately be
directed to a zoning change where the community as a Whole can participate through a legislative process.
It is through a zoning change the appropriate impacts can be assessed and a better community for all can
be realized. A use variance of this nature docs not meet the spirit of the city’s zoning ordinance, because
the impacts will be so severe and the community will not have had an opportunity to properly assess
them.
Finally. | would be remiss not to point out that the city through the Office of Economic Development
started to work with the applicant on crafting a zoning ordinance. which would have addressed the issues
outlined above. but the applicant instead chose to pursue this process belies ing it would be more
expedient. [respectfully submit that 294 units of residential housing as contemplated on park industrial
land should have a Board of Aldermen legislative process.
Thank you for your consideration of this issue and if | can he of any assistance relative to this matter or
any other please do not hesitate to contact me.
Kindest regards,
