Overall Sentiment Agenda Item:eComments for INVOCATION: Mason Overall Sentiment � 5v Mike Ezzedine Location: Submitted At: 3:15pm 12-22-20 1 work at Caltrans 15700 Tustin Village Way. I believe that the location of proposed construction is not a safe place practice due to insufficient stopping sight distance required to avoid accidents. Mike Ezzedine , PE,MBA Hasnaa Nour Location: Submitted At: 2:14pm 12-22-20 1 am opposed to the use of the raw land located at the intersection of McFadden and Tustin Village way, to build a gas station for all of the following reasons: 1. There are already a number of gas stations built up in the area. 2. With the slowdown in the economy, the demand for gas has decreased not increased. 3. Any public benefit for a new station would more than be negated by the devastating impact on the existing businesses in the area. 4. Competition for gas in that area has caused gas prices to be the lowest in the South Orange County area. A new station would only flood the area with more competition, not less competition. 5. The area could use more development, but a new gas station would only continue to suppress the overall area, not enhance it. The Tustin city leadership should have better skills at identifying other business that would help grow the community, not continue to stagnate it. 6. The area needs an Urgent Care center must more than it does another gas station. Agenda item: eCofnnients for PUBLIC HEARING: Overall Sentiment . Fig ti:v`9P IOh-.. Guest User Location: Submitted At: 4:14pm 12-22-20 Good evening Chair and Members of the Planning Commission. My name is Adan Madrid. I am with ASI Development. Our offices are located at 5932 Bolsa Ave., Suite 107 in the City of Huntington Beach. I am the applicant's representative for the proposed reconstruction and gas addition for 7-Eleven at McFadden Avenue and Tustin Village Way. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this item electronically and for your consideration of our application. Although the Planning Commission may be seeing this project for the first time this evening, we have worked with Planning Staff, the Police Department, as well as the other various City Departments over a period of 14 months to arrive at a set of project plans that fully comply with the City's municipal code and that address all of the issues and concerns raised by City Staff. We believe this project is a good value proposition for the City and the community in that it entails the demolition of an older 7-Eleven store that has been in operation within this community for decades and replacing it with a new larger store with the addition of a fueling canopy and pumps. In addition, the project area includes the existing dirt lot at the street corner which has been vacant for many years. The new store will be architecturally superior to the older and obsolete store building, as well as the older Laundromat, and will include new landscaping and lighting. We are proud of this project and pleased to be able to bring this development forward to you this evening for your consideration. Warmest Regards Cynthia Domoslai Location: Submitted At: 3:06pm 12-22-20 1 am concerned over the building of a large corporate gas station and convenient store by 7-Eleven corporation on the corner of Mcfadden and village way There was previously a 76 gas station located at that corner which closed with ground contamination Currently there are 5 gas stations with convenience stores in the immediate area. 2 which are directly across the street on each corner one approximately 112 mile away and 2 more within a mile Plus 2 other stores with 112 mile (no gas). The area has enough of these business and another large corporate store would be detrimental to the local small business owners. Already struggling for their share of business. It would be financially hard to support another gas station and store especially one of this size, it would impact the 2 gas stations Airectly located across the street greatly possibly forcing one or both out of business . Both of these stations are family owned businesses and have been for 40 years. Also plans show the sale of alcohol which would only invite crime or robbery since 7-11 is a 24 hr business. This area of Tustin is residential and the impact of further pollution to the air would be harmful to the residents. The economy has slowed down and the demand for gas has decreased . gas stations are struggling for sales which means we do not need more stations It would create a negative impact on current businesses in the area Gas prices are at a low and a new gas station would flood current stations with more competition Does the area need new development. Yes. But definitely not another gas station it would not be a plus for the city. We need something that could grow the community not a gas station that will hurt'other businesses We hope the city will consider the issues and how it can impact existing business in the area Please take Our concerns of the surrounding businesses into consideration and deny the design review and CUP Cynthia Domoslai Local business owner Tiscareno, Vera From: Skye Domoslai < Sent: Tuesday, December 22, 2020 3:16 PM To: Planning Commission Subject: DR2019-00016 I oppose the building of the new gas station and store on the vacant lot on McFadden ave. There's enough gas stations in the area, and with homelessness and crime it will increase the problems. From Skye Winklepleck TEscareno, Vera From: john domoslai < Sent: Tuesday, December 22, 2020 3:28 PM To: Planning Commission Subject: 7/11 DR 2019-00016 review As an area businessman I am in oppositon to the building of a large gas station and store on the vacant lot at McFadden & VIlage way The area is saturated with gas stations and convenience stores It cant support another gas station especially by a large corporation. Most of the business in the local area are small family owned Of late the homeless population is increasing and a large scale store would just invite more homeless to hang curt and even sleep in the area. and one that sells alcohol and open 24 hours would not be a plus for the Tustin community The land could be used for something more worth while than another gs station Being 2 stations directly across the street it could hurt those business and possibly cause 1 or both to eventuailyclose, causing job losses I hope the city can consider all the factors.and not grant the permit to move forward thanks you in advance John 1 Tiscareno, Vera To: Aguilar, Jessica Subject: RE: 7/11 CUP From: Cynthia Domoslai Sent:Tuesday, December 22, 2020 3:55 PM To:Aguilar,Jessica <JAguilar@tustinca.org> Subject: 7/11 CUP Sent from my iPhone 00016 As a local business was owner in the immediate area I am concerned over the building of a large corporate gas station and convenient store by 7-Eleven corporation on the corner of Mcfadden and village way There was previously a 76 gas station located at that corner which closed and ultimately had ground contamination Currently there are 5 gas stations with convenience stores in the immediate area. 2 which are directly across the street on each corner one approximately 1/2 mile away and 2 more within a mile Plus 2 other stores with 1/2 mile (no gas).

We just don't need anymore gas stations in the area. There are already 2 across the street and I think this lot could be used in a better way for the community. Thank you for considering the community first josh D. Sent from my iPhone i
