Unless the center is reinforced by redevelopment activities, <br />the Agency believes that the City of Santa Aha will continue to declin~ in the <br />area of major retail shopping. I! addition to expansion of Fashion Sqqare the <br />Agency desires to improve autbmeb~le ingress and egress into the central core <br />of the City thereby strengthening the older downtown. <br /> <br />It is the intent of the Agency to assist in the redevelopment of Fashion <br />Square by acquisition of property and by the construction of a parking garage. <br />It is not the intent of the Agency to actively acquire either by acquisition <br />or eminent domain other property in the Amended Project Area beyond that <br />property needed for the major retail center. The center will be built north <br />of Santiago Creek between Main Street and the Santa Ana Freeway. However, <br />in accordance with Section 33350 of the Health and Safety Code, the Agency <br />is required to advise you as a property owner that the property referred to <br />by parcel number in this letter and as so shown on the last equalized assess- <br />merit roll of the County of Orange is legally subject to the Agency!s acquisi- <br />tion by purchase or condemnation under the provisions of the plan. However, <br />at this time we want to emphasize that the Agency has no intent to acquire <br />by purchase or condemnation properties other than those necessary to put <br />together the development as described. <br /> <br />In addition to this notice, public hearing notices will also be published <br />in The Santa Aha Register on April 17, April 24, May l, May 8, 1975. <br /> <br />If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at (714) 834-411g. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br /> <br />
