Rebuttal to Developers View on Sunshine Meeting Sunshine Meeting Report ‐ Neighborhood Rebuttal‐Table View Page 12 of 14 2018‐11‐13 Crime: COMMENT QUESTION REPORTED TO DEVELOPER DEVELOPER RESPONSE: NEIGHBORHOOD RESPONSE: 1. Is there security on site? Currently there are workers on site during the day, after dusk and until dawn we have on site security. No comment 2. Is the property as is bringing crime to the neighborhood? Yes, we have had significant vandalism and theft of copper pipes, copper wire and fixtures. The damage is in excess of hundreds of thousands of dollars. Currently there are dozens of vagrants camping/living in the riverbed and under the overpass from Main Street. If the applicant currently has workers on site during the day, and site security after dusk and until dawn, why the significant vandalism and theft of copper pipes, copper wire and fixtures? Did they wait until they had a problem to address it? It seems so. Not the pro‐active group that I would want to do business with. 3. Increasing the population won’t decrease crime. Crime is simply a reality of a urban location. We believe putting residents at this location will result in a nighttime presence, especially in the park, thereby deterring crime. In addition, we will have 24 hour security that will patrol the park and Park Santiago (if the community would like this benefit provided). Crime was not a problem until the applicant took control of the property. Enough said. 4. 1.2 million a year to the General Fund will provide 3 police officers that is nothing. This amount of revenue will provide significantly more than 3 officers. Importantly, the City, like most City’s needs to find more sources of revenue to provide much needed services. The proposed project, unlike others, is a budget surplus for the City, it is a wonderful opportunity to bring much needed professional housing to the City and additional revenue. Money, money, MONEY! 5. Putting single family on the site will solve the crime issue. We believe the more people the greater, in deterring crime in the area. Responsible landlords will help deter crime. 6. We have one of the first neighborhood watch groups, why haven’t you come to talk to us? We have reached out to the community group and to date they were not available to meet. Neighborhood watch is different than neighborhood association. 7. It is insulting that you talk about crime in our neighborhood. We are hopeful that crime will be mitigated in the future. Hope, without hope all is lost. Being a responsible landlord will help deter crime. 8. Was there vandalism when the building was used as a call center? We do not have a crime report for the area, we have made a request for any such reports. No comment. Added November 13, 2018: One year later and still no data.
