We were taught that a new project should <br />uplift it's context, not suppress it. This project will irreversibly damage the fabric of Park Santiago and lower <br />the property values in one of the best Santa Ana neighborhoods. Do you want to be responsible for that? <br />The builder has not made a real effort to work with the neighborhood but has consistently pushed for a bigger <br />project than any other project adjacent to a single family neighborhood in Santa Ana. <br />Let me say as a local Realtor that I am pro private property rights and pro housing. I understand the Main <br />street side is an ideal location for higher density development however 2 sides of this project back to single <br />family homes. Perhaps the developer should go back to the drawing board and consider another option with <br />100 <br />
