Projects provoke concerns DAVE GONG | The Journal Gazette Residents opposed to two planned Fort Wayne projects raised drainage, traffic, safety and density concerns Monday during a public hearing before the city Plan Commission. A set of 48 rowhouses planned near Dicke Road in Aboite Township drew criticism from some area homeowners who are afraid the development will devalue their properties and cause unsustainable population density and traffic issues. Some residents who spoke Monday were also concerned about safety for area children. The residents also presented the Plan Commission with a petition opposing the development. The project – which would require rezoning from two-family residential and low-intensity residential to multiple-family residential – calls for nine buildings containing 1,250-square-foot homes with two bedrooms and space for a covered or screened porch or patio to the rear.
