OWNER : Tonya Campo, 7736 Sugar Drive, Huntington Beach, CA 92647
LOCATION: 7736 Sugar Drive, 92647 (south side of Sugar Drive at the southern terminus of Rushmoor

PROJECT RE UEST AND SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS:
This represents an appeal filed on April 16, 2010 by Anthony Campo of the Director's denial of
Administrative Permit (AP) No. 09-019. AP No. 09-019 represents a request to permit a home occupation
consisting of group fitness instruction utilizing the CrossFit, Inc. strength and conditioning exercise program.
The home occupation would utilize 1,500 sq. ft of an existing garage and approximately 15,000 of the rear
(including existing tennis court) and side yard areas for exercise. Exercise classes are proposed Monday
through Friday at 6:00 AM, 8:00 AM, 9:00 AM, 5:00 PM and 6:00 PM and one class Saturday at 9:00 AM
(Attachment No. 3). Home occupations in Residential Districts are permitted pursuant to Section 230.12,
Home Occupation in R Districts, of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance (HBZSO). The
Administrative Permit process requires Neighborhood Notification within a 300 ft. radius of surrounding
properties. A copy of the appeal letter is provided as Attachment No. 2.
BACKGROUND
Between 2007 and present, the City's Code Enforcement Division has responded to multiple complaints from
surrounding neighbors regarding organized fitness & gym activity occurring at the subject property and on the
public right-of-way within the neighborhood. On July 27, 2009, a Final Notice was sent by Code
Enforcement to the property owner regarding the continued use of the property for fitness instruction without
a permit. On August 18, 2009, Code Enforcement contacted the property owner, advising of the violations
and necessary corrective measures required to permit the group fitness instruction. On October 26, 2009, the
applicant was issued another Notice of Violation for continued home occupation without a permit and failure
to comply with applicable requirements noted below.
-'- Study Session #A-2
AP No. 2009-019 was submitted on September 24, 2009 to permit a home occupation consisting of group
fitness instruction. On October 16, 2009, the application was deemed incomplete because the Neighborhood
Notification requirement was not fulfilled. In addition, staff informed the applicant that the proposed project
does not comply with the minimum home occupation permit requirements and requested a written response
describing how the project would comply. On January 13, 2010 the applicant provided a written response
(see Attachment No. 5) and satisfied the Neighborhood Notification requirements on February 13, 2010.
Staff reviewed all materials submitted and determined that the proposed home occupation could not be
approved as proposed based on the lack of compliance with the required conditions of approval (see
Attachment No. 9).
Staff determined that the use is not conducted entirely within one room in a dwelling as it includes utilizing
the front, side, and rear yard areas and garage. Specifically, garages cannot be used in connection with home
occupations except to park business vehicles. In addition, residency could not be verified because the existing
dwelling is utilized as an adult care facility licensed by the State. Further, comments received as a result of
the required Neighborhood Notification were not supportive of the proposed home occupation. The
comments suggested that the use would increase pedestrian and vehicle traffic in the neighborhood. As a
result, the Director denied the request with findings on April 6, 2010 (Attachment No. 6).
On April 16, 2010, an appeal of the Director's decision was filed by Mr. Campo. The reasons for the appeal
include a desire to convert the garage to a second dwelling unit and consideration of the unique size of the
property.

RE: Notice of Denial Permit 2009-19, 7736 Sugar Dr.
APR16 2010
Huntington Beach
PLANNING; DEPT.
I am writing today to appeal the decision of denial for the home occupation permit application 2009-19,
7736 Sugar dr. for the following reasons:
I would like to designate the current garage as a bonus room/gaming area and guest house. I would like
to use the adjacent structure as the garage. There are other properties on PCH with detached guest
houses. I don't for see those residents being denied for a home occupation permit if they proposed to
use the guest house as an office. I understand the code was written with the traditional Single Family
Resident with attached garage, no guest house, on a 6000 sqft lot but this property is not the traditional
residents. The property is over 26,000 sqft, enough for 4 of the traditional Single Family residents, the
property is not zoned R1 but RL7, and can have up to 7 units build on the property.
The code doesn 't state against using a guest house for home based business. I will terminate using the
yard in conjunction of the activities. I will eliminate the vehicle and pedestrian traffic with another
alternative.
Thank you for your time.
Best Regards,
Anthony po

We are proposing to offer small Group exercise classes (4 participants) at 7736 sugar Dr. These classes
solely offer the CrossFit strength and conditioning program. In this program, we have group workouts
that include cardiovascular training, weight training, and calisthenics. We plan to use 1500sgft of garage
space and the 15,000sqft of the lot for our training. This lot is unique because it being 26,000sqft, I only
say this to explain the 15,00sqft. We plan to hold classes 6am, Sam, 9am, 5pm, 6pm Monday thru Friday
and one class at 9am on sat. My girlfriend and I will be facilitating classes. We are obtaining this permit
so that we can operate within the city's requirements. To the north is a street with houses, to the south
is the 405 freeway, to the east is the entrance to the tract, to the west is a bend to more houses.

We, as concerned residents of the Fashion Home tract, located off McFadden/Sugar Drive in
Huntington Beach, strongly object to the Planning Application No. 2009-0230 for a fitness class
business at 7736 Sugar brive.
This fitness class brings in an excessive amount of vehicle traffic that park on both sides of
Sugar Drive. Residents have noticed that the business is apparently being run out of the
existing garage at that address and were concerned regarding the legality of this issue. The
Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance was checked and found that under Section
230.12, C. 1. It states, "A home occupation shall be conducted entirely within one room in a
dwelling. No outdoor storage shall be permitt ed . Garages shall not be used in connection with
such business except to park business vehicles."
In addition, 230.12 C.4. states "A home occupation shall not increase pedestrian or vehicle
traffic in the neighborhood ." This is clearly a Code violation, in that the business increases both
pedestrian and vehicle traffic.
There have been numerous reports by residents that part icipants of the fitness classes, on
commencing their run through the neighborhood, dart out into the street without regard for
vehicles entering or exiting on Sugar Drive. This has resulted in several close calls of
pedestrian/vehicle accidents.
This additional parking on both sides of the street, has created a safety issue in that they block
the view of those exiting Rushmore Lane onto Sugar Drive. Those exiting cannot get a clear
view of oncoming traffic and often start to pull out, thinking it is safe and most often it is not.
WE, THE FOLLOWING SIGNED RESIDENTS OF THE FASHION HOME TRACT STRONGLY OPPOSE
THE ISSUANCE OF PLANNING APPLICATION PERMIT NO. 2009-0230.

Re: Planning Application No. 2009-0230
Dear Mr. Edwards:
'CT 19 2009

I would like to express my concerns about the application from Anthony Campo and his mother
Tonya Campo for an administrative permit for small group fitness classes. They have been
conducting these classes without a permit for at least a year. During that time, there have been
numerous cars parked on both sides Sugar Drive. This is already a fairly narrow street and with
cars are on both sides, the visibility is limited especially when making a left hand turn from
Rushmoor Lane.
Besides the obstructed visibility and the added traffic to our neighborhood, they appear to be
in violation of some of the city codes: Ref. 230.12, C-1, C-2, C-4 and C-7:
Cl- Their fitness classes are conducted in the garage and on other outside areas of the
property.
C2- Anthony Campo and his mother do not live at this address.
C4- There is considerable increase in the number of vehicles parked along Sugar Drive.
C7- Their business is listed on a website called Crossfit Surf City with the address and
a map showing the Sugar Drive location (see att ached).
Tonya Campo also continually parks a motor home alternately on Sugar Drive and Rushmoor
Lane . It is moved periodically to stay within the parking codes, however, this adds another
vehicle to our neighborhood for someone who does not even live here. Taking all of this into
consideration, I would ask that their application be rejected.
Sincerely,
"' '- a.

Dear Mr. Edwards:

I am writing again to oppose the business expansion at 7731 Sugar Drive - it is already not safe
to drive in and out due to the volume of vehicles parked on both sides of the street. I was
almost hit last week by a vehicle pulling out from Rushmore - she could not see me coming
around the curve and thought it was safe to pull out - have heard a couple of similar stories of
near misses from other neighbors. The business as it now stands is already impacting the
residents of this area - the expansion of the business they are requesting would GREATLY
impact the 150 homes In the Fashion area residents coming and going.
Also, the people att ending the fitness class periodically run out of the drive at 7731 Sugar Drive
and unfortunately do not look both ways for traffic - I have had to stop suddenly more than a
couple of times, also something I have heard from other neighbors.
Another problem is the motor home, which is parked on Shasta about 95 percent of the time.
It takes up so much space, there is not room for two cars to pass. If you own a motor home,
part of the responsibility of being an owner is paying to have it stored - you don't see any other
motor homes on the street in our area - and it is not because people don't own motor homes,
they are being responsible and paying to have them stored.
ONCE AGAIN, I CANNOT EXPRESS HOW STRONGLY WE ARE OPPOSED TO THE EXPANSION OF
THE FITNESS BUSINESS ON SUGAR DRIVE.

Re: Planning Application No. 2009-0230
Dear Mr. Edwards,
Anthony Campo and his mother Tonya Campo applied for an administrative
permit for 7736 Sugar Drive in Huntington Beach for a small group fitness class.
They already have a business at this address which is some type of convalescent
home.
It was brought to our attention that they were caught by code enforcement for
running a fitness class without a city permit.
In reading the zoning laws in our city they have also violated other city codes;
Ref. 230.12, C-1, 2, and 4:
C1 - Their fitness class is conducted in the garage and on other outside
areas of the property.
C2 - Anthony Campo and his mother Tonya Campo do not live at this
address.
C4 - As part of their physical fitness class participants run throughout the
neighborhood.
Their fitness class adds a huge amount of vehicle traffic on Sugar.
The professional count that was taken showed Sugar Drive alone had 198
vehicles in a twenty-four hour period for only seven houses. Please keep
in mind this is the street we all have to use to enter or exit our tract.
Due to these facts their application should be rejected.
Yours Truly,
-4a&(

As a resident of Shasta Lane I would like to object to the fitness classes being held/proposed to be held at 7736 Sugar
Drive. I am not against the classes but what goes along with them, parking. They need to provide the parking on their
property. The parking at this time is dangerous for residents. This week I was almost hit by a car coming out of
Rushmoor because they could not see my car travelling west on Sugar. I find that I cannot see cars as I am exiting
Rushmoor to go east on Sugar and must creep forward usually into the path of cars going west.
Please consider this problem when you make your decision on the permit.
Thank you

I am writing to express my concern over what I believe to be a code violation. IIlive a : ;_I
a7711 Etna Circle in Huntington Beach near Sugar Drive which is the only route into my ° =
neighborhood. There apparently has been a business in the form of a gym operating out
of 7736 Sugar. I just received a letter from another neighbor indicating that they are now
requesting a rezoning of the property. My first concern is we are not commercially zoned
in this tract it is zoned for single family dwelling, designated (RL) in the zoning map.
210.02
The RL Low Densi Residential District provides opportunities for single-family residential
land use in neighborhoods, subject to appropriate standards. Cluster development is allowed.
Maximum density is seven (7) units per acre.
Secondly I have felt the frustration of dealing with this business for the last year, which
included groups of people running up and down the middle of the street during the start
of my morning commute and especially here lately the massive increase of traffic and
parked cars at the mouth of my neighborhood. If you visit the area in the afternoon you
will see that vision is severely impaired in and out of the secondary artery of the tract,
Rushmore because these gym members are parking along the entire swath of sugar
completely obstructing view. This presents a public safety concern which cannot be
ignored. If they receive a granting of their expansion request it will only compound
matters.
Lastly I am concerned about the increase of traffic in general this new addition in my
neighborhood will cause. This is a small tight knit community and with the advent of the
new beach corridor project and addition of new business we are all concerned about
crime and safety. Increasing the business flow increases the sheer number of people
accessing our tract and most assuredly increase the crime in and around Sugar.
Not only do I believe that the owner of 7736 Sugar should not be granted their request I
think they should be sited for running a business in a residential.

Sir:
Page 1 of 2
I am writing this email with great concerns for what is
happening in my community and directly across the street from
where I reside. I reside at 7661 Sugar Drive, Huntington Beach. As
far as I know, this area is zoned as residential, not commercial, yet
we have several businesses running out of this residential
neighborhood, (two retirement homes, one limo service and
now, fitness classes that is run out of one of the retirement
homes).
The biggest problem of all of the businesses in our
neighborhood is this One Run by Anthony Campo who is offering
small group fitness classes at 7736 Sugar Drive (retirement home
address). We are hard working blue collar workers and we
appreciate our weekends spending our time in our home. We like
to go out for breakfast on Saturday mornings and when we return
home, there is no parking on our street. There have been times
that we have had to park our vehicle in the next block because of
the amount of people who use the fitness classes. Oh, and by the
way, they have been running this for almost two years without the
benefit of a business license. The parking on Sugar Drive is almost
non-existent when they are running their classes:
10/14/2009 ATTACHMENT NO. S-iH
Page 2 of 2
Point one, how are they allowed to run a business out of the
retirement home like this without the ability of supplying the
proper parking for the people taking these classes.
Point two, since when is a residential area zoned for commercial
enterprises.
We were not asked to sign a variance to allow for this to
happen. They also continuously park their huge motorhome on
Sugar Drive on the street in front of the home but far enough to
have their clients to either park in front or behind it. Isn't there a
vehicle code that cites vehicles of this type that extends beyond
the width of a regular vehicle onto the street to be parked on a
residential street?
We are definitely against any and all of this group fitness classes
that are being offer out of a private residence. Let them find
suitable existence in an approved commercial area. If you feel the
need to contact me for any further information, I can be contacted
at the Balboa Bay Club at (949) 630-4320, Monday through
Wednesday, or at my residence the rest of the time at (714) 893-

Dear Mr. Edwards:
I am writing to oppose the business expansion at 7731 Sugar Drive - it is already not safe to
drive in and out due to vehicles parked on both sides of the street and makes it especially
difficult when the motor home is parked on the street, which it is 95 percent of the time. It
does not leave enough street space for two vehicles. I understand that they have a permit to
park there, but it is really unsafe to vehicles coming in and out of the neighborhood. There is a
sign posted coming into the tract about parking large vehicles, but apparently if you get a
permit, it is OK. It is also difficult for drivers to see around the vehicles parked on both sides,
when they come out on Rushmore - they have to pull out because they can't see. I have
already had three close calls. With the expansion of the fitness business run out of the home
on Sugar, it would put residents coming in and out at even more of a safety risk. The residents
already are heavily impacted gett ing out of our tract of homes due to so much traffic in both
directions on McFadden. I doubt that very many of us go left - it is just too dangerous -
vehicles are coming at a fast rate of speed coming over the hill.
I understand that they want to expand their business, especially in today's economic situation,
but that one business at the present time is already heavily impacting the safety of 150
residential homes.
AGAIN, WE ARE STRONGLY OPPOSED TO THE EXPANSION OF THE FITNESS BUSINESS ON
SUGAR DRIVE.

RE: Notice of Denial Permit 2009-19, 7736 Sugar Dr.
APR16 2010
Huntington Beach
PLANNING DEPT.
I am writing today to appeal the decision of denial for the home occupation permit application 2009-19,
7736 Sugar dr. for the following reasons:
I would like to designate the current garage as a bonus room/gaming area and guest house . I would like
to use the adjacent structure as the garage. There are other properties on PCH with detached guest
houses. I don't for see those residents being denied for a home occupation permit if they proposed to
use the guest house as an office. I understand the code was written with the traditional Single Family
Resident with attached garage , no guest house , on a 6000 sqft lot but this prope rty is not the traditional
residents. The property is over 26,000 sqft, enough for 4 of the traditional Single Family residents, the
property is not zoned R1 but RL7, and can have up to 7 units build on the property.
The code doesn 't state against using a guest house for home based business. I will terminate using the
yard in conjunction of the activities. I will eliminate the vehicle and pedestrian traffic with another
alternative.
Thank you for your time.
Best Regards,
Anthony po

Dear Mr. Edwards:

We, as concerned residents of the Fashion Home tract, located off McFadden/Sugar Drive in
Huntington Beach, strongly object to the Planning Application No. 2009-0230 for a fitness class
business at 7736 Sugar Drive.
This fitness class brings in an excessive amount of vehicle traffic that park on both sides of
Sugar Drive. Residents have noticed that the business is apparently being run out of the
existing garage at that address and were concerned regarding the legality of this issue. The
Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance was checked and found that under Section
230.12, C. 1. It states, "A home occupation shall be conducted entirely within one room in a
dwelling. No outdoor storage shall be permitted. Garages shall not be used in connection with
such business except to park business vehicles."
In addition, 230.12 C.4. states "A home occupation shall not increase pedestrian or vehicle
traffic in the neighborhood." This is clearly a Code violation, in that the business increases both
pedestrian and vehicle traffic.
There have been numerous reports by residents that participants of the fitness classes, on
commencing their run through the neighborhood, dart out into the street without regard for
vehicles entering or exiting on Sugar Drive. This has resulted in several close calls of
pedestrian/vehicle accidents.
This additional parking on both sides of the street, has created a safety issue in that they block
the view of those exiting Rushmore Lane onto Sugar Drive. Those exiting cannot get a clear
view of oncoming traffic and often start to pull out, thinking it is safe and most often it is not.
WE, THE FOLLOWING SIGNED RESIDENTS OF THE FASHION HOME TRACT STRONGLY OPPOSE
THE ISSUANCE OF PLANNING APPLICATION PERMIT NO. 2009-0230.

Dear Mr . Edwards:

f LANNING DEFT
I would like to express my concerns about the application from Anthony Campo and his mother
Tonya Campo for an administrative permit for small group fitness classes. They have been
conducting these classes without a permit for at least a year. During that time, there have been
numerous cars parked on both sides Sugar Drive. This is already a fairly narrow street and with
cars are on both sides, the visibility is limited especially when making a left hand turn from
Rushmoor Lane.
Besides the obstructed visibility and the added traffic to our neighborhood, they appear to be
in violation of some of the city codes: Ref. 230.12, C-1, C-2, C-4 and C-7:
Cl- Their fitness classes are conducted in the garage and on other outside areas of the
property.
C2- Anthony Campo and his mother do not live at this address.
C4- There is considerable increase in the number of vehicles parked along Sugar Drive.
C7- Their business is listed on a website called Crossfit Surf City with the address and
a map showing the Sugar Drive location (see attached).
Tonya Campo also continually parks a motor home alternately on Sugar Drive and Rushmoor
Lane . It is moved periodically to stay within the parking codes, however, this adds another
vehicle to our neighborhood for someone who does not even live here. Taking all of this into
consideration, I would ask that their application be rejected.
Sincerely,

I am writing again to oppose the business expansion at 7731 Sugar Drive - it is already not safe
to drive in and out due to the volume of vehicles parked on both sides of the street. I was
almost hit last week by a vehicle pulling out from Rushmore - she could not see me coming
around the curve and thought it was safe to pull out - have heard a couple of similar stories of
near misses from other neighbors. The business as it now stands is already impacting the
residents of this area - the expansion of the business they are requesting would GREATLY
impact the 150 homes In the Fashion area residents coming and going.
Also, the people att ending the fitness class periodically run out of the drive at 7731 Sugar Drive
and unfortunately do not look both ways for traffic - I have had to stop suddenly more than a
couple of times, also something I have heard from other neighbors.
Another problem is the motor home, which is parked on Shasta about 95 percent of the time.
It takes up so much space, there is not room for two cars to pass. If you own a motor home,
part of the responsibility of being an owner is paying to have it stored - you don't see any other
motor homes on the street in our area - and it is not because people don't own motor homes,
they are being responsible and paying to have them stored.
ONCE AGAIN, I CANNOT EXPRESS HOW STRONGLY WE ARE OPPOSED TO THE EXPANSION OF
THE FITNESS BUSINESS ON SUGAR DRIVE.

Anthony Campo and his mother Tonya Campo applied for an administrative
permit for 7736 Sugar Drive in Huntington Beach for a small group fitness class.
They already have a business at this address which is some type of convalescent
home.
It was brought to our attention that they were caught by code enforcement for
running a fitness class without a city permit.
In reading the zoning laws in our city they have also violated other city codes;
Ref. 230.12, C-1, 2, and 4:
C1 - Their fitness class is conducted in the garage and on other outside
areas of the property.
C2 - Anthony Campo and his mother Tonya Campo do not live at this
address.
C4 - As part of their physical fitness class part icipants run throughout the
neighborhood.
Their fitness class adds a huge amount of vehicle traffic on Sugar.
The professional count that was taken showed Sugar Drive alone had 198
vehicles in a twenty-four hour period for only seven houses. Please keep
in mind this is the street we all have to use to enter or exit our tract.
Due to these facts their application should be rejected.
Yours Truly,

As a resident of Shasta Lane I would like to object to the fitness classes being held/proposed to be held at 7736 Sugar
Drive. I am not against the classes but what goes along with them, parking. They need to provide the parking on their
property. The parking at this time is dangerous for residents. This week I was almost hit by a car coming out of
Rushmoor because they could not see my car travelling west on Sugar. I find that I cannot see cars as I am exiting
Rushmoor to go east on Sugar and must creep forward usually into the path of cars going west.
Please consider this problem when you make your decision on the permit.

I am writing to express my concern over what I believe to be a code violation. I-live-a't' ' :; : r r cT
7711 Etna Circle in Huntington Beach near Sugar Drive which is the only route into my
neighborhood. There apparently has been a business in the form of a gym operating out
of 7736 Sugar. I just received a letter from another neighbor indicating that they are now
requesting a rezoning of the property. My first concern is we are not commercially zoned
in this tract it is zoned for single family dwelling, designated (RL) in the zoning map.
210.02
The RL Low Densi Residential District provides opportunities for single-family residential
land use in neighborhoods, subject to appropriate standards. Cluster development is allowed.
Maximum density is seven (7) units per acre.
Secondly I have felt the frustration of dealing with this business for the last year, which
included groups of people running up and down the middle of the street during the start
of my morning commute and especially here lately the massive increase of traffic and
parked cars at the mouth of my neighborhood. If you visit the area in the afternoon you
will see that vision is severely impaired in and out of the secondary artery of the tract,
Rushmore because these gym members are parking along the entire swath of sugar
completely obstructing view. This presents a public safety concern which cannot be
ignored. If they receive a granting of their expansion request it will only compound
matters.
Lastly I am concerned about the increase of traffic in general this new addition in my
neighborhood will cause. This is a small tight knit community and with the advent of the
new beach corridor project and addition of new business we are all concerned about
crime and safety. Increasing the business flow increases the sheer number of people
accessing our tract and most assuredly increase the crime in and around Sugar.
Not only do I believe that the owner of 7736 Sugar should not be granted their request I
think they should be sited for running a business in a residential.
Thank You,
Garr Nelson

Sir:
I am writing this email with great concerns for what is
happening in my community and directly across the street from
where I reside. I reside at 7661 Sugar Drive, Huntington Beach. As
far as I know, this area is zoned as residential, not commercial, yet
we have several businesses running out of this residential
neighborhood, (two retirement homes, one limo service and
now, fitness classes that is run out of one of the retirement
homes).
The biggest problem of all of the businesses in our
neighborhood is this One Run by Anthony Campo who is offering
small group fitness classes at 7736 Sugar Drive (retirement home
address). We are hard working blue collar workers and we
appreciate our weekends spending our time in our home. We like
to go out for breakfast on Saturday mornings and when we return
home, there is no parking on our street. There have been times
that we have had to park our vehicle in the next block because of
the amount of people who use the fitness classes. Oh, and by the
way, they have been running this for almost two years without the
benefit of a business license. The parking on Sugar Drive is almost
non-existent when they are running their classes:
10/14/2009
0 i Page 2 of 2
Point one, how are they allowed to run a business out of the
retirement home like this without the ability of supplying the
proper parking for the people taking these classes.
Point two, since when is a residential area zoned for commercial
enterprises.
We were not asked to sign a variance to allow for this to
happen. They also continuously park their huge motorhome on
Sugar Drive on the street in front of the home but far enough to
have their clients to either park in front or behind it. Isn't there a
vehicle code that cites vehicles of this type that extends beyond
the width of a regular vehicle onto the street to be parked on a
residential street?
We are definitely against any and all of this group fitness classes
that are being offer out of a private residence. Let them find
suitable existence in an approved commercial area. If you feel the
need to contact me for any further information, I can be contacted
at the Balboa Bay Club at (949) 630-4320, Monday through
Wednesday, or at my residence the rest of the time at (714) 893-

`' flLrJT.
I am writing to oppose the business expansion at 7731 Sugar Drive - it is already not safe to
drive in and out due to vehicles parked on both sides of the street and makes it especially
difficult when the motor home is parked on the street, which it is 95 percent of the time. It
does not leave enough street space for two vehicles. I understand that they have a permit to
park there, but it is really unsafe to vehicles coming in and out of the neighborhood . There is a
sign posted coming into the tract about parking large vehicles, but apparently if you get a
permit, it is OK. It is also difficult for drivers to see around the vehicles parked on both sides,
when they come out on Rushmore - they have to pull out because they can't see. I have
already had three close calls. With the expansion of the fitness business run out of the home
on Sugar, it would put residents coming in and out at even more of a safety risk. The residents
already are heavily impacted gett ing out of our tract of homes due to so much traffic in both
directions on McFadden. I doubt that very many of us go left - it is just too dangerous -
vehicles are coming at a fast rate of speed coming over the hill.
I understand that they want to expand their business, especially in today's economic situation,
but that one business at the present time is already heavily impacting the safety of 150
residential homes.
AGAIN, WE ARE STRONGLY OPPOSED TO THE EXPANSION OF THE FITNESS BUSINESS ON
