September 30th, 2024 <br />Valerie Amezcua <br />Honorable Mayor <br />VAmezcL!g@sa eta-ana.ory <br />Delivered via email. <br />Dear Honorable Mayor: Valerie Amezcua, <br />As a resident, community member and business executive, I am writing to express my <br />strong support for the approval of the Related Bristol project on October 1St, 2024. This <br />initiative represents a significant economic opportunity that our city urgently needs, and <br />it is crucial that we prioritize the best interests of our residents. <br />This project has the potential to create 15,800 new jobs and generate $500 million <br />in tax revenue over the next 30 year, along with a substantial $544 million <br />community benefits package. <br />Nearly 100 local businesses at metro Town Square shopping center need certainty <br />about their future and business location. With many leases expiring soon, we face the <br />very real risk of a vacant retail center, which would significantly impact sales tax <br />revenues for our city. Delaying this project is not an option. <br />I urge you to please prioritize the general good of our community and support this <br />project. I am in full support of the visionary Related Bristol mixed -use development <br />because of it promises unprecedented benefits for the city of Santa Ana for decades to <br />come. <br />Approval of this innovative and dynamic project will help fuel sustainable growth and <br />prosperity for Santa Ana. It will help contribute to the economic, social and cultural <br />expansion of one of the largest and most consequential cities in Orange county. <br />I kindly ask your support for Related Bristol now, for we risk losing this once -in -a - <br />generation opportunity. <br />Pau <br /> <br /> <br />Psi nfo rd 1 DO@ q mail.cosn <br />(949)246,1299 <br />1 <br />
