There are empty spaces all around Fullerton, you must believe that the city should condemn all stores that are vacant or that you don't like and put in Macy's or Nordstrom's in every one, don't you? I bet you work for the Chamber of Commerce?

Diana, listen to what you are saying, it’s obvious that you have no respect for private property rights, you sound like a communist, “let the government help us because we are too weak and stupid”. There is nothing wrong with a 99 cent store. I like them and so does Dick Jones. Ask him if you don’t believe me.

Take a look at these maps! This is nothing less than a power grab to control most of these privately owned properties. Will some of these property owners stand up for their rights and demand to be excluded from this farce?

They're letting everyone out who even knows about this to forstall lawsuits. Somebody tell the rest of these landowners before it's too late--and their properties get "assembled" by some developer.

I'm having trouble understanding why this redevelopment government agency is allowed to expand without a vote of the people, please explain? My neighborhood is not blighted and we love Kimmie's and that's not blighted, what's up with this blighted property stuff?
