wrote their denial letter,the plans were not well developed enough to justify characterizing the front <br /> 25%of the building as retail. <br /> Now that I understand the City requirements, and have had time to plan, I have dedicated the front 25% <br /> of the leased space to retail. I will make that front 25%a quality money making retail space, have <br /> obtained the appropriate State sales tax licenses,ordered inventory,hired staff to maintain retail hours <br /> etc.and am looking forward to the challenge of being a successful retailer,as well as a successful <br /> realtor. My business is a member of the Chamber of Commerce and the PDA,and my family have been <br /> contributors to this community in many additional ways. Before my appeal gets to you it should be <br /> declared moot, because I will have fully complied with the City's Active Ground Floor Overlay District <br /> requirements(PMC Sec. 18.81.020 C,attached). <br /> If there is anything that our current covid climate has taught us it is how a business must be flexible, <br /> fluid,and innovative. We ask that the City Staff and Planning Commission work with businesses and <br /> landlords who have suffered difficulties because of covid so we can keep downtown buildings occupied <br /> and vital. <br /> Thank you for your consideration. <br /> Sin er , <br /> CieIrtA h �� \i, ..r <br /> n ifer Van egen <br /> Owner, Iron Horse Real Estate <br /> 550 Main Street <br /> Pleasanton,CA 94566 <br /> Email: jennifer(Dironhorserealestate.com <br /> Phone: 925.858.9332 <br /> Enclosures: <br /> Retail Layout for Lease Space—550 Main Street <br /> Chapter 18.81 PMC Active Ground-Floor Overlay District <br /> CC: Ms. Ellen Clark <br /> Ms. Melinda Denis <br /> 2 <br />
