Bristol St., 'Suite 208 <br />Santa Ana, California 92704 <br />(714) 549-1903 <br />drfon randl fon Lds.cotn <br />Dear Santa Ana City Council Member, <br />My name is Dr. Randy Fong, and 1 am a dentist at Metro "fown Square. I have been a <br />tenant there since 1989. <br />1 am writing to plead that Santa Ana City Council stop delaying the approvals of Related Bristol. <br />From the last hearing, City Council appears to be prioritizing politics and others interests <br />above the small businesses that call this center home. <br />I am proud of my business and have worked hard through the years to build a strong <br />relationship with my loyal patients. Metro Town Square is over 54 years old. The center has run its course and <br />needs to be updated. Many other tenants also feel this way. Unless major changes occur, I may lose patients, <br />which are mostly from local neighborhoods in Santa Ana. <br />I support Related Bristol because the developer is committed to addressing growing <br />concerns about safety and security at the center and in South Santa Ana. This is a very <br />high priority for me, my patients and other tenants. I support the developer's offer to <br />put a police substation within Related Bristol to help both private and public safety <br />officers respond more quickly to emergencies. <br />I want the opportunity to remain here for years to come, but my lease expires next <br />year. i do not have a lease extension in place (because Related has been delayed by <br />the City. I am anxious and concerned about my future. <br />24 <br />
