There’s often a lot of talk in our community about a lack of quality stores to shop at locally. Trader Joe’s is often at the top of that list. Well, apparently, Trader Joe’s and Nike Town are interested in putting in a store at the new development going in on Crenshaw. But we as a community, need to let them know that we want them.
If this is something that you find yourself often saying – then now is the time. Write in a letter of support for both of these stores (separately) ASAP! They’re interested, so let them know how much we want them to come in here.
Here’s all you need to do:
- Write two simple, short letters or emails (one for each store) saying how much you’re in favor of the store in our area.
- Address them both to the address below.
- Put an attention line to each store (i.e., “Attention: Trader Joe’s” or “Attention: Nike Town”)
- Email or mail the letter to CD-10 as soon as possible.
Please take the time to write each of these letters – it will only take you a few minutes, and it can really make a big difference for our community in terms of the quality of stores we have available in our neighborhood.
The letters can be emailed to Sylvia Lacy at Sylvia.Lacy@lacity.org or mailed to Council District 10, 1819 S. Western Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90006.
For more details, please see the notice from CD-10 below.
