Subject: Allowing Chain Businesses in Downtown

Dear City Council,
As a life long resident of Sonoma County and who also lives in Sebastopol I'm weary of you exploring letting chain stores open on the Square. When one comes, where does it end? When all the local businesses are pushed out and the town looses its charm because you though it was a great idea to sell out the town image for gimmicky crap you can go anywhere else. If it passes we will field cantidates to replace each of you.
Thanks,
Nick S
