RE: Shoreline Village Enterprises Ground Lease Extension Dear Mayor Richardson and City Council Members,
Let me introduce myself, my name is Michael Cole, I am Vice President of Operations for Select Restaurants, Inc., the parent company of Parkers' Lighthouse and Queensview Steakhouse. I have been a part of the Long Beach community for over 25 years. I am writing today to comment on the ideas and proposal Shoreline Village Enterprises, LLC is contemplating for the renovation of Shoreline Village.
My company understands that our landlord, Shoreline Village Enterprises, LLC is contemplating an investment in the Shoreline Village Renovation Project in conjunction with signing a Ground Lease extension for the Shoreline Village property. Since 2000, when Shoreline Village Enterprises purchased the rights to the Ground Lease, Select Restaurants has had a great working relationship with this Landlord through the many renovation investments that Select has undertaken over the years. Now that Shoreline Village is undertaking its own renovation, which includes improving upon the parking shortage, my company is more than supportive of this endeavor and looks forward to a continued mutually respectful relationship with Shoreline Village Enterprises for years to come. Therefore, we would like to add our support to Shoreline Village Enterprises' endeavor to extend their Ground Lease.

Since the day Parkers' opened in 1983, we have been an iconic restaurant in Long Beach with a very high quality of food and service matching our market position. We have committed to continual investment in our property, product, and people to maintain that market position and are supportive of Shoreline Village Enterprises' own efforts in that regard. We are proud to be a part of serving the Long Beach community and look forward to continuing our relationships in the future.
Sincerely,
