Honorable Council and Planning Commissioners,
As a citizen and participant in Menifee's CED recent update, 2020 has presented many challenges to normal market
assumptions and finds us possibly reevaluating planning decisions.
I would caution that the City hold a long term view for its Economic Development Corridor and reserve these lands to
provide all important tax generating projects.
There was much discussion during our General Plan creation that these freeway close properties will be the economic
engine which provides LONG TERM viability for Menifee.
During both CED meetings this theme was confirmed by all involved.
While housing development does provide some economic drivers, we need to insure adequate space for employment
and industries.
As a final point, in order to encourage high income individuals and businesses owners, we should encourage more large
lot residential housing in appropriate areas.
Thank you and please make my comments part of the public record.
Rick Croy.
