I oppose the Starbucks. We have enough big businesses around here. We need to lookout for our
community members trying to start a business. There is a family owned coffee shop already there.

My opposition is to the Starbucks at that location. There is currently a family owned coffee shop on the
NW comer of that intersection called Kind Bean (https: www.thekindbean.com). My feeling is that
Starbucks would wipe this business out. We are already overrun by Starbucks all over the city; I see no
need for another. I acknowledge that Kind Bean does not have a drive through, but I do not feel that is a
compelling argument to shut down a successful family business.

In my previous post I incorrectly gave the location of Kind Bean; Kind Bean is located on the
NE corner of Pecos and McQueen.

Iam concerned about what is proposed to go into retail on the corner of Pecos and McQueen

( PLH20-0023, PLT20-0037 PECOS AND MCQUEEN RETAIL). It states a drive thru and a
Starbucks are slated to go there. Why can we not get local restaurants to go there instead of a
drive thru and a Starbucks? We already have two coffee shops on that corner (Dunkin Donuts
and Kind Bean), three if you count McDonalds. I am concerned that all of these chain
restaurants will put the local coffee shop (Kind Bean) out of business. There are also at least
four other Starbucks within a small radius of that corner (one on Arizona, two at the Target
center on Gilbert and one in Frys on Chandler and Gilbert). Starbucks are starting to turn into
gas stations, one on every corner. We also have several drive thrus nearby as well. Wendy's is in
the Walmart center on Arizona, McDonald's is on the same corner, Burger King is a mile over
on Chandler, and Chick-Fil-A is on Gilbert. That seems to be all the drive thrus we need. Also,
that corner is already dangerous for making left hand turns. I don't want to imagine the traffice
if they add a Starbucks there. The drive thru lines at Starbucks are notoriously long and if they
do not have enough space for the traffic line it gets backed up on the road, as seen at the
Starbucks on Arizona. Retail on that corner is a good idea, but please justify (other than money)
why it needs to be ANOTHER starbucks and drive thru instead of new local retail.
