bane Kobayashi Subject: FW: 273 Spring Street project �1PI LCIZ'�6L�1TALL Provided to the City Courooi0 From: Alexis Gass, Clover Creek After Distribution of Packet Sent: Friday, January 15, 2016 1:00 PM :Zik To: Mayor and City Council Date Subject: 273 Spring Street project Dear City Council Members, I am asking that you consider not going forward with the proposed project for 273 Spring Street. It will have a negative impact on the existing shortage of parking on Main Street and side streets. The project will displace approximately 20 cars using the lot at 273 Spring St. and there is no room on Spring St. for them to park since there is very rarely open parking. The parking lot at the hardware store near my business is often filled to capacity with cars of people patronizing other locations. The New York Pizza business employs many delivery drivers that take a lot of parking spaces. We are now going to have a new realty business moving in next door to us that will require parking for their clients and short term parking for the real estate agents. We receive regular negative remarks from customers about the lack of parking for our businesses and how they would have stopped in another time except they could not find parking. The downtown has a considerable amount of senior citizens that like to shop and eat in our downtown, partially because it is easier for them to navigate here than at the mall. There are also many people that meet here from surrounding towns to have lunch and shop. If we continue to lose parking availability for customers The downtown has already lost enough parking because of other projects that have gone forward without adequate parking spaces to support the building. Thank you for considering my request. Alexis Gass Clover Creek Gifts and Home Accents 670 Main St. Pleasanton, Ca. 94566 p. 925.462.0814 f. 925.462.0942 Click here to report this email as spam. 1
