As you may have heard, the Tustin Planning Commission approved a conditional use permit and Costco is seeking a Mitigated Negative Declaration which is to say that NO comprehensive environmental impact studies on the traffic, fuel tanks, idling cars and pollution that this project will generate are going to be conducted.
Our coalition appealed the Planning Commission's decision to the Tustin City Council which has scheduled a public hearing on October 15th to decide the final fate of the project.
We are requesting that the City and Costco do the right thing and require that a full Environmental Impact Report (EIR) be conducted to determine the impacts that this mega fueling station will have on our neighborhood. Costco should have to adhere to the same laws and jump through the same hoops as all of our other small businesses before they are allowed to open a new business.
Please be sure to attend the Council Meeting on October 15th but to also EMAIL the City Council at CityCouncil@tustinca.org in the interim to let them know your concerns about this project!
