Neighbors Against Business Expansion in Residential Zones The conditions have not been met throughout the whole year. It is a busy corner, cars are coming and going. He is alergic to a lot of traffic. When he first moved into the neighborhood, it was a quiet area.

She has spoken with several of the neighbors who don 't have a problem with the nursery. Condition NO. 9 - states that the shop should close at 7:00 and have always closd at this time. During Holloween, she called Mr. Miller to ask permission to stay open and there was an approval so long as there were no sales made. No sales were made. At another time, Ms. Ramirez and some gu… show more

neighbor She would like to see the parcel remain zoned as residential since there is such a shortage of housing.

He lives across the street from the flower shop. He has lived there since 1974. He wasn 't in agreement with having the nursery there but he decided to let it go for a year and conditions have not been met. He believes that if Ms. Ramirez didn 't comply with the laws, then why would Ms. Ramirez comply with the rules if there is an extention.

One of many people that don 't support this nursery. Several of the conditions have not been met. The nursery is covered by a blue tarp and he sees very little beauty in that.

neighbor The lighting issue is related to Christmas lights. He lives 3 blocks away from the nursery. - He and his family shop at this nursery all the time.

- MEDA Her organization represented Ms. Ramirez last year. She started off as a very small business that expanded into a nursery. She developed a business plan and a bank approved her for a loan. Unfortunately, she wasn 't able to take the loan because she had gotten in debt of $20,000.00. Neighbors and businesses donated money for her to be able to pay off this debt.

PODER Support the continuing existence of the nursery. He has been working closely with the neighborhood. It 's important for them to support a neighborhood business that is attempting to beautfy the neighborhood. The nearby school has taken trips to the nursery to teach kids about plants and flowers.

lives on Shotwell Street He has lived in that neighborhood for 14 years. All the neighborhood is in favor of the nursery. The whole neighborhood has a problem with parking on top of sidewalks. There is one person who does not want to have the nursery there. This person against the nursery should come out and talk to the rest of the neighbors and this person will realize that everyone is in favor of the nursery.

She visits Ms. Ramirez ' family regularly. She closes at the required time. Christmas lights are allowed in the neighborhood. The other lights are very limited. The parking issue could be related to the Cala Foods and Liquor Store near by.

Last time the case was heard it wasn 't about how nice Ms. Ramirez was. There is a parking issue in the Mission District anyway.

neighbor The conditions have not been met. There is a lot of cars on the sidewalk. Ms. Ramirez has even attempted to open a produce market. He is concerned about the tents, before there was only one, now there are more.

Mission Agenda This flower shop is only 5 blocks away from the Bryant Square project. There are many neighbors, non-profits and agencies in support of this nursery. He asks cordially to allow for a continuance for Ms. Ramirez to be able to run her family owned business.
Giovani Ramirez · spoken · 2000-05-11 · support
The lights were on at 7 before he closed. His family is just trying to make a living.
