Subject: Proposed Development at 2525 North Main Street
Dear Mr. Fregosa, Mayor Pulido and Councilmembers,
Please make the following letter part of the minutes for tonight's City Council meeting.
My husband and I are residents and homeowners in Park Santiago. We live at 2629 North Santiago Street. We
categorically object to a re-zoning of the property from commercial to high-density multifamily residential and
this assumes that the City's Master Plan is up to date.
Traffic in and out of the neighborhood is already a major issue, not to mention the cut through traffic from other
areas. Additionally, the proposed hotel being built just across the freeway also on Main Street, the Wells Fargo
office building on the corner of Broadway and Main at Main place along with its additional apartments , and the
current mass of apartments off Memory Lane, will severely impact the quality of life not only for Park Santiago,
but the surrounding neighborhoods of Floral Park and West Floral Park. Even now accessing the freeway entrances
and exits off Main Street puts life and limb at risk.
The Park Santiago neighborhood, Floral Park, and West Floral Park cannot withstand an onslaught of this type of
development. We wish to maintain the integrity of our neighborhoods. We all chose to live here because of the
suburban environment and neighborhood flavor of this old and unique area.
A more beneficial approach/solution would be the acquisition of the Goodwill Center on Grand and 17th Street.
That would provide a much needed face-lift, and housing to an area that would be improved, not impacted.
Thank you.
Deborah Hicks-De Bach
Robert A. DeBach
