Subject: Planning Commission meeting for today comments
Dear Chairman and Members of the Planning Commission ;
I wish to address two matters before you this evening……….
As I am a member of the Historic Resources Commission…….I want to clarify that my comments here
are made as a private citizen and not as a Commissioner.
RE; 609 N. Spurgeon, proposed 93 Unit for rent development on former Church site.
DISTRIBUTED AT MEETING ON 1/14/19
I am opposed to this development and to the applicants request for numerous variances. This site
and the surrounding area cannot support nor should it that type of density. The very fact that so
many variances are being requested ought to be a red flag as to the negative impact that this
development will have on the immediate neighborhood and the greater Historic French Park
neighborhood. I strongly urge you to vote NO on this applicants various requests. This project
needs more analysis……..but one thing we don’t need in Santa Ana is more low income housing.
RE; 2525 N. Main. I wish to go on record as being opposed to this project. The density levels
requested in this development are simply way out of scale for the area. This developer needs to
take his blue prints to the OC Register site and partner with Mike Harrah. That would be an
appropriate site for his vision. There is so much public opposition to this project………I need not
reiterate all the reasons against it. Please vote in opposition to the “receive and file” and requests
for a declaration of approval in any way of this proposal.
Thank you for your consideration,
Sincerely,
TIMOTHY D. RUSH
