COMMISSION CONCERNS
Stated he hopes there is not a perception that the City
indiscriminately demolishes historical buildings in the City.
Indicated he is very proud of this project.
Noted the City has a 20-year history of making important efforts,
including the Overlay District, to preserve history.
Pointed out that the City of Tustin is mentioned on page 16 of
Elizabeth George's most recent novel.
Noted that the Armstrong project looks good so far.

9:39 p.m.
Stated that tonight's decision was very difficult since he empathizes
with the residents who want to preserve the Utt Juice building; he
looked hard for some feasible way to make that happen; none was
apparent.
Indicated he looks forward to the new project going forward.
Agreed that tonight's approval was a difficult decision.
Thanked everyone on staff for their work.
Reminded everyone that the Promenade is coming soon; and,
encouraged everyone to tour some of the City's historical buildings.
Stated that staff did an extraordinary job helping the Planning
Commission understand this project.
Thanked his colleagues on the Commission for doing a good job
during a difficult evening.
Indicated it is important to bear in mind that during these difficult
economic times it is imperative to remain vigilant regarding
properties within local government purview to prevent
Sacramento's usurping of sales tax, residential property taxes, etc.;
it is incumbent upon local government not to be reaching into the
taxpayers' pockets to subsidize that which private industry can do
and not be making public those things that should be privatized.
Applauded staff for trying to work with the developer and not allow
this property, which has been fallow for so long, to remain fallow;
this is the right thing for Tustin, despite the difficult choices
regarding the façade that has historical value.
Indicated he attended Karaoke Night (or "Tustin Idol") and was very
entertained; the proceeds will benefit the Seniors in Tustin.
ADJOURNMENT
The next regular meeting of the Planning Commission is scheduled
for Monday, May 24, 2004, at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chamber at
300 Centennial Way.
