The public attendees also raised <br />concerns that the development would bring more homeless to the area. The <br />proponents responded that the store layout would not allow them to hide or camp <br />anywhere and that the employees would not allow them to loiter in front of the store. <br /> The proponents also indicated that the existing site has had to be cleaned up from the <br />current homeless and other nefarious characters who are using the site due to the lack <br />of any public presence at the abandoned restaurant, indicating that the proposed new <br />development would h strongly discourage any homeless or other nefarious activity at <br />the site by providing 24 hour operation that has security cameras that will record the <br />activity onsite and help to deter not only problem activity at the site, but also in the <br />immediate vicinity. Various City police departments have used security footage from <br />the surveillance systems to apprehend people who have committed crimes at other <br />locations and were fleeing along adjacent streets but were caught on the security <br />cameras and identified for apprehension. The proponents truly believe that the <br />proposed development will be a safe and secure “good neighbor” in the community. <br /> <br />In addition to the two meetings, the proponents had reached out directly to the <br />community and received signatures in support of the project from numerous residents <br />within the community. The support signatures have been provided to the project <br />planner, Mr. Jerry Guevara for inclusion in the project file. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />1-79
