We <br />continue to enjoy <br />the charm, beauty and sense of community that exists, even as we <br />launch a new era of growth and improvement. The present council has been <br />alert to the city's needs - some old and some new - and has <br />aggresively taken the lead to address them. <br /> <br />We are writing each of you to address an issue which, in many <br />respects, relate to all of the above. The proposed changes requested <br />by the owner! <br />leas or of Arden Plaza are inappropriate and unreasonable. <br /> <br />We do not need a Walgreen's, CVS, or any other "chain" pharmacy in <br />Arden Plaza. The Arden Plaza Pharmacy and Gift Shop has served <br />residents for <br />many years with quality products, outstanding service and <br />personalized attention. The staff is competent, caring, friendly and <br />is an independent <br />business that should be welcome in our community-oriented city. It <br />hardly needs mention that Target and Cub meet the "chainll requirement. <br /> <br />Furtherl why an ALDI grocery? It doesn't seem to fit the shoppers in <br />our community or even surrounding area, and we are well served by <br />Target, Cub I <br />and Byerly's. <br /> <br />We urge you to review these requests in three ways: <br />need? Is it practical? IS it fair? <br /> <br />Is there a <br /> <br />Thank You. <br /> <br />1 <br />
