14-1118_BLENHEIM FACILITY MANAGEMENT_CC_D14_correspondence_7Maria Morris From: Linda York Sent: Sunday, November 1E, 2014 9:13 PM To: Sam Allevato; Larry Kramer; Roy Byrnes; Derek Reeve; John Taylor Cc: City Clerk Scanstation; Lori Doll Subject: Blenheim Facilities Management Lease Dear City Council Members, As a resident of San Juan Capistrano, I very concerned about the recent insurgence of residents opposed to the renewal of the Blenheim Facilities Management lease. While I understand and support the basic complaint against the lease renewal, I don't think the equestrian community should have to suffer or be shunned in order to meet the needs of all. The land in question has been home to equestrian events for many years, dating back to when the Mission Viejo Ranch owned the property. My understanding is that the Ranch planned to develop the property, until the City came in and purchased the land -- in part to preserve a venue for our equestrian events and annual rodeo. Surely there is a way to create a win --win scenario without tearing apart the fundamental. nature and character of our town. I am in favor of signing the lease and hopefully it can contain provisions to accommodate the broader needs of the community. Sincerely, Linda York .:.: 4ti1;- fa- �V!ry .✓��-1 1
