Don't HELLA El Dorado!  Do Government before they DO you!

The circled items were ones that I didn't have time to review.  Sorry!  Great presentation.

Let's not lose anymore of our character such as the Stone House already gone!

#58 Lamp base looks like pipe, not good - flowers yes

We don't want that "Mediterranean/Italian" look.  We want the Gold Rush, or farming look, or pioneer look.  Parking needs to have space for pickup trucks. 

#58 like the lamp, but not the "pipe"-look concrete.

#33 Could be a good design-style for low-income housing here - lots of people thought the "barn-look" fits in well.

Tear down the billboard!

I would like the see smart growth vs no growth.  We can't stop a town from developing but we can stop that development to include urban sprawl and loss of habitats and farmland. By designing land to max use on the smaller space we can keep our rural community and sustain healthy growth.

↑ Apartments with businesses interagrated into communities

↓ Park lots

↑Parking garages and roofs w/ parking

↑More public trans and bike lanes 

Historic preservation, rather than placing limits on commercial development, can be taken to a higher, and probably more disinterested level than the board of supervisors.

We are big enough!  We do not need any added commercial buildings!

Keep architectural elements on buildings so each is individual.  El Dorado Town Center is very nice.

Didn't have time to review all of the photos.

Partial survey - ran out of time!

#61 - Yes! When we have out-of-town visitors, we take them to the train and the Depot.

#40 - No lights

#61 - Absolutely

We'd like any decor that embraces Shingle Springs' historical past.
