Project 2525 Main Street Development <br />NU <br />i r.. <br />c• ; <br />C Sornstein <br />to ecomments, me, jazzdog54 <br />City Council Members, <br />Received at City Council <br />Meeting 2/19/2019 <br />11:22 AM (1 hour <br />ago) <br />I will be able attending the meeting tonight however due to the last meeting, not many of <br />us got into the council chambers or got to speak so I'm sending this email. <br />Please vote "No" on the 2525 Main Street project. This high density development is <br />inappropriate at this location backing up to our historical neighborhood made up of <br />single family dwellings. <br />In addition to the density of the development, there are several other reasons I believe <br />that the Council should reject it: <br />1. This property is zoned as commercial. There has been no discussion or compelling reason put <br />forward as to why it should be rezoned as multi -family. <br />2. Traffic will be a problem of which our neighborhood will bear the brunt. Traffic exiting onto <br />Main Street from this 495+ apartment complex and where more high density projects are <br />proposed, will exponentially increase the congestion in an already busy Main Street. This will <br />cause apartment residents to drive through our neighborhood attempting to avoid the <br />traffic. We have an elementary school on Santa Clara. This is a potential danger to those <br />students and their families. <br />3. Apartment parking will spill over into our neighborhood too. It's been proposed that parking on <br />our streets will be permit only and homeowners will have to purchase their own parking permits <br />from the city. That's an unacceptable resolution. Our neighborhood should not pay the price <br />for lack of planning on the developers part. The Mother's Market parking lot on Main Street <br />and Memory Lane is already experiencing this dilemma. The developer built a high density <br />apartment complex behind this business corner and did not account for enough cars so <br />residents of that complex are now parking in the Mother's lot. Go see the signs now posted. <br />4. The Planning Commission, your representatives that you appointed, spent many hours <br />reviewing the proposal and listening to comments before turning it down. <br />I'm a resident of Santa Ana for the past 56 years and I love this city. However, I was <br />insulted at the Sunshine meeting when this developer said to the 300+ attendees from <br />our neighborhood, "we needed to get over ourselves" because the project was going <br />ahead whether we liked it or not. They knew something our neighborhood didn't and <br />that was quite disturbing. 1 urge you to turn down this proposal. <br />
