My property is adjacent to 4507 North Interstate 35. This email is in regards to the sign proposal for Apple Tree Holdings; case number C16-2022-0004. I would like the board to know that I am in full support of the proposed sign alterations. And I would like my email to be entered into record that I, as a property owner and a neighbor, have no objections to the proposed changes. In fact, it is my belief that having businesses improve their locations, and visibility will create a positive feedback in the neighborhood. Which we will all benefit from, as a community and as neighbors. If there are further questions, I can be reached via phone @ 714-272-7672 or simply via my email.
