To the Sebastopol City Council,
I'm opposed to Grocery Outlet opening a store in Sebastopol. We have lots of grocery stores here already, and I don't want to see our local independent grocery stores lose business. One of the wonderful things about Sebastopol is having stores like Community Market, Andy's and Pacific Market.
There are a lot of stores within a small geographic area. We have enough big chain stores here with Safeway, Lucky and Whole Foods. Let's keep it possible for the independent stores to stay viable and keep money in our local economy.
Thank you,
Dana Davis
