Received at City Council <br />Meeting 2;1912019 <br />Feb 10, 2019 Brian Poteraj <br /> <br /> <br />Santa Ana City Council <br />Re: 2525 Main Street Project <br />Dear Mayor Pulido and members of the City Council <br />I am writing this letter to let you know that I am against the zoning changes being requested by the <br />owners of the property. <br />I am against the zoning changes and the proposed project for the following reasons: <br />1. The proposed project is too large for the neighborhood. <br />a. 2525 Main wants to increase the number of residences in the neighborhood by 36% in <br />an area of the neighborhood that is just about 1.5% of the Park Santiago land mass, <br />b. The current zoning allows for 3 stories, the proposed project is asking for 8 stories ... <br />almost three times the current allowable size. <br />2. Park Santiago is already inundated with cut -through traffic. An additional 480+ residences is <br />going to push a lot of traffic through the neighborhood and is going to ruin our standard of <br />living. A decrease in the standard of living is going to cause Park Santiago residents to move, <br />which is going to impact the quality of the neighborhood. <br />3. Renters do not have the same concern for the area as owners. Again, this is going to negatively <br />impact the quality of the neighborhood. <br />4. 1 own rental properties, and know from experience that more people will live in the unit than <br />are on the lease, again negatively impacting the quality of the neighborhood. <br />I am against this project and implore you to do the right thing and following the planning commission's <br />recommendation to reject the request to change the zoning. <br />VE+ <br />
