Orozco, Norma <br />From: <br />Sent: Tuesday, September 04, 2018 3:47 PM <br />To: eComment <br />Cc: <br /> <br />Subject: 3100 W. Central meeting today <br />Hello, I am writing this email today to make my comments AGAINST a Homeless Shelter on W. Central in Santa <br />Ana. We have been doing business in Santa Ana, starting on the corner of S. Susan St. and W. Central since 1965. We <br />own the property adjacent to the W. Central property at W. Central as well as owning W. Central. We <br />also own and S. Susan St. We own the property on surrounding and on Anne St as well, and <br /> <br />Our company has had ZERO notification about tonight's City Council meeting and the attempt to buy the properties in <br />question for a Homeless Shelter. I can not attend tonight's meeting on such notice however I would like to make it very <br />clear that we will do everything in our power to fight this. This area has been Industrial Zoned since we bought here and <br />that is why we continue to buy in this area. It is not designed for pedestrians, there are NO side walks, the area is <br />traveled 24 hours a day with heavy traffic and large Posta Service Mail trucks are parked all along the streets!!! There are <br />no safe avenues to this property by foot. Also, the property backs up to a major storm drain that drains directly to <br />the river!! <br />On top of that our factory runs 24 hours a day, 5 to 6 days a week. It is an area with HEAVY industry, ours <br />especially. There are no services nearby, no fuel stations and only a few fast food restaurants that would indeed feel the <br />pain of this decision. Currently, since the closure of the river encampment on Warner Ave and Harbor Blvd our <br />employees are constantly harassed on our property by the Homeless, a shelter in our area would only make this threat <br />greater. <br />Again, please note that we will do everything in our power to fight this, including joining with our friends and neighbors <br />in the area. This is an industrial area not a Hotel Zone. Thank you for your time, <br />Gregory S. Keeler, President/CEO <br />Aluminum Precision Products, Inc. <br /> <br /> <br />0 <br />
