Proposed Sonic Drive‐In Restaurant
Via e‐mail
Dear Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council,
This letter is to notify our continued interest in working with DGSG Investment Properties and the City of Bellflower to develop a Sonic Drive‐In at 17617‐7639 Bellflower the City of Bellflower.
Coast to Coast currently owns and operates eleven Sonic Drive‐In restaurants with over 500 employees.
The Sonic locations include six locations in Orange County, one in Los Angeles County, three locations in Riverside County and one in San Bernardino County. We have been a licensed franchise group with Sonic in the Los Angeles market since securing a Franchise License and exclusive Area Development Agreement in 2007 with Sonic Industries. The Development Agreement includes development rights in Riverside, San Bernardino, Los Angeles, and Orange Counties, California.
We have been working closely with staff over the last several years on trying to find a location for Sonic Drive‐In and identified this location as a project that meets all of our criteria for a Sonic Drive‐In. We have been under contract to purchase a lot at this location and have received approval from Sonic corporate to bring a new Sonic Drive‐In to this project and to the City of Bellflower. We are looking forward to moving the permitting process.
We look forward to the opportunity to bring a Sonic Drive‐In to the City of Bellflower. In the interim, please let me know if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Devon Wesselink
