To the honorable City Council,
I have been an Anaheim resident for over 25 years living on just outside the 1000’ notification boundary,
but I know the area well including friends that have lived on the other side of the wall shared with the commercial
center.
This project should not be pushed forward with a simple exemption. Only a full CEQA environmental assessment can
show the full significant impacts this type of land use will result in.
Knowing the area well I can say that traffic is horrible as the Ball Road exit is a main thoroughfare for Disneyland,
Anaheim Stadium, the Honda Center, and more. That exit backs up even with the modernizations done in the last few
years. The the exemption is not adequate as there are the CEQA categories for air quality, noise, energy and others that
can easily be triggered by installing a 24 car wash and gas station. Yes the ABC license might need upgrading but there
are also 4 existing gas stations, a 7-11, and car wash a block over.
This project will add unnecessary burden of pollution on the residents living in the area in addition to the NOx and PM
emissions they are impacted by on a daily basis living near a freeway. There are more logistic issues with traffic control
and adequate parking but this location cannot sustain a 24 Hour gas station which will impact the residents no matter
how high the wall is made.
Victor
