Neighborhood Impact Statement

A Neighborhood Impact Statement is a document that assesses the potential effects of a proposed development project on the surrounding community. This statement typically includes an analysis of factors such as traffic, parking, noise, visual impacts, and compatibility with existing land uses. The purpose of a Neighborhood Impact Statement is to provide decision-makers and the public with a clear understanding of how a project may affect the quality of life, property values, and character of the surrounding area. The statement may also propose mitigation measures to address any identified negative impacts. Neighborhood Impact Statements are often required as part of the development review process to ensure that projects are designed and built in a manner that is sensitive to the needs and concerns of the local community.
