2500 N Main St, <br />Santa Ana, CA 92705 <br />714.542.CUBE (2823) <br />discoverycube.org <br />' A Discovery Science <br />DiscoveryCube foundation Campus <br />ORANGE COUNTY <br />Pn ESENTEn BV NCO �Cll. <br />• To allay neighborhood concerns, the developer has offered to provide roving security <br />throughout the Santiago park neighborhood. <br />In addition to the above, we note with appreciation, the following: <br />The developer has graciously worked with Discovery Cube in allowing its visitors and <br />employees to park without charge on the site until construction commences. <br />The developer has proposed partnerships with Discovery Cube which should enhance <br />Discovery Cube's educational outreach and success in the community. <br />Finally, we note there is a potential circulation conflict which can be alleviated with the City's help. <br />Specifically, the developer has consciously avoided creating a curb cut on Edgewood'o dissuade <br />cut through traffic on the local streets within the Santiago Park neighborhood. As a result, all traffic <br />entering or exiting the project must do so from a curb cut in Main Street. This curb cut will conflict <br />with Discovery Cube's entry at Walkie Way. Both Vineyards Development and Discovery Cube <br />would very much appreciate it if the City would allow one of the apartment project's Plain Street <br />curb cuts to be at the current entry into Santiago Park and aligned with Walkie Way. S milarly, we <br />believe it would be quite possible to create in excess of 60 parking spaces within Santiago Park <br />south of the Santiago Channel. Santiago Park is not currently well patronized, and we can imagine <br />some great benefits to the city in forming partnership with Discovery Cube for use of Santiago <br />Park in its children's education programs. <br />For the above reasons, this letter serves to convey our support and confidence in the proposed <br />project at 2525 N. Main Street, Santa Ana. Do not hesitate to call with any questions. <br />Yours truly, <br />Ak: <br />Rick Bally, Chairman <br />Discovery Cube Board of Directors <br />On behalf of the <br />Discovery Cube Board of Directors <br />CC: Jeremy Ogulnick <br />Discovery Cube is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization.
