IMIRELATED <br />Bristol <br />To Whom It May Concern: <br />I am in support of the proposed Related Bristol mixed -use. project because of the significant. <br />economic benefits, community benefits and additional housing it will provide for the City o.f <br />Santa Ana for decades to come. <br />Redeveloping the aging, auto -centric suburban shopping center on. South Bristol Street into a. <br />walkable, people -first community of residences, shops, restaurants and programmed open <br />green space will be.a major economic boost to the City. <br />Approximately 7,500 jobs will be created, along with an estimated $10.7 million in annual tax <br />revenue to help fund the expansion of services and programs throughout Santa Ana. <br />Once built, nearly one-third of the development will be dedicated to open space with an active <br />mix of programmed parks, open-air plazas and pedestrian -only paseos—a sharp contrast to the <br />asphalt -heavy shopping center that exists there today. Open space on this scale in the heart of <br />Orange County is in high demand, but short supply, which is why Related Bristol is.such a <br />vital —and refreshing —alternative to other urban developments. <br />Moreover, Santa Ana is central to many major employers and the City needs more housing to <br />retain and attract skilled workers. Related Bristol will offer a diverse mix.of housing and lifestyle <br />options. that will meet this critical regional need. <br />I believe Related Bristol is the type of mixed -use development that City officials envisioned and <br />advocated in the General Plan for the South Bristol Street.Corridor. Approval of this innovative <br />and dynamic project is essential. to sustain. Santa. Ana's growth:and prosperity for years to come <br />and contribute to. the economic, social and cultural .expansion. of one of the largest; .most <br />important cities in Orange County: <br />support Related Bristol and urge you. to approve this visionary development: <br />Thank you, <br />NAME:. tk..: EMIII L: . <br />J <br />ADDRESS: ....1 <br />Yes, I am willing.to speak publicly as a supporter of. Related Bristol. <br />
