Thii's request is bailsed on! safety, health, and qualtity-of-tife concerns for myfarnity, not for aesthetic reasons. A . OFP and includes heavytrucks, traveling at high speeds throughout the day and n�ig�ht. I am especially concerned about the safety of my two young children, ages 3 and 2, when they 11 are outdoors. Additionally, my 3-year-old son is on the autism spectrum and is particuLarty sensitive to Loud, unpredictabLe sounds. When trucks and vehicles pass, he often says, "too loud, too loud" and becomes visibly ded. Despite replacing aU of ourwindows to reduce interior noise, the sound continues to affect the fro:nt-facing rooms, nega;tiively impacting our family's daiLy quaLity of Life.
