NRELATED <br />w...... _. _....... <br />To Whom :lt May Concern: <br />I am in support of the proposed Related Bristol mixed -use project because of the:siignificant econo.m.ic benefits, <br />community benefits and additional housing it will provide for the City of Santa Ana for decades to. come. ` <br />Redeveloping the aging, auto -centric suburban shopping center on South Bristol. Street into. a walkable, <br />people-first.community of residences, shops, restaurants and programmed open green space will be a major <br />economic boost to the City.. <br />Approximately 7,500.. jobs will be created, along with an estimated $10.7 million in annual tax revenue to help <br />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 mix of <br />programmed parks, open-air plazas and pedestrian -only paseos—a sharp contrast to the asphalt -heavy <br />shopping center that exists there today. Open space on this scale in the heart of Orange County is in high <br />demand, but short supply, which is. why Related Bristol is such a vital —.and refreshing —alternative to other <br />urban developments. <br />Moreover, Santa Ana is central to many major employers and. the City needs more housing to retain and attract <br />skilled workers. Related Bristol will offer a diverse mix of housing and lifestyle options that will meet this critical <br />regional need. <br />I believe Related Bristol is the type of. mixed -use development that City officials envisioned and advocated in <br />the General Plan for the South Bristol Street Corridor. Approval of this innovative and dynamic project is <br />essential to sustain Santa Ana'.s growth and prosperity for years to come and contribute to the economic, <br />social and cultural expansion of one of the largest, most important cities in Orange County. <br />support. Related Bristol and urge you to approve this visionary development. <br />Thank you, <br />Signature: <br />Print Name t-e on ( oo.
