To Whom It May Concern: <br />1. 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 of <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 />I support. Related Bristol.and urge you to approve this visionary development <br />Thank you,,.:. <br />NAME:.... t� .- t� EMAIL: 1 Wit <br />ADDRESS:_ <br />Yes, I am willing to speak.publicly as a supporter of Related Bristol: <br />
