Developmen.t. • Leasing • Management July 18, 2013 Via Hand Delivery Alicia Giudice City of Petaluma Planning Department 11 English Street Petaluma, CA 94952 Re: Zoning Amendment Appeal Lynch Creek Plaza NWC Lynch Creek Way and North McDowell Blvd. Petaluma, CA Dear Ali, This letter shall serve: as our request to appeal the Planning Commission's decision regarding the rezone of the Lynch Creek Plaza property. We believe that a rezone of the property from Business Park to MU1 B is appropriate and beneficial to the community and consistent with Staffs recommendation. Although the meeting minutes have not been published to date, our understanding is that the commission did not approve the rezone because there was not sufficient information regarding the lack of demand for medical office space. We will provide additional information evidencing, the vacancy rates for this type of office space.;Additionally, there seems to be a misconception about the definition of medical office space. Virtually any office can be utilized as medical office. The only difference is the type of tenant improvements (or TI's) within the space. TI's are easily modified and thus could be adapted to accommodate market demands. Further, the Deer Creek Village project is zoned MU1B which would allow for them to easily accommodate medical office should the demand exist Given the Deer Creek project is fully entitled, the inventory of land for potential medical office space has increased dramatically in this area Lastly, according to Bob Lipman, a 30 year commercial' real estate broker in Petaluma, there is a reduced demand for medical office adjacent to the hospital and within the community. Doctors are preferring a,°more desirable office location over proximity to the hospital. Co— I 1556 PARKSIDE DRIVE, WALNUT CREEK, CA 94596-3556 • (925) 588-2200 • FAX: (925) 588-2230 The Planning Commission also suggested that.Walgreens could locate on the Deer Creek Village property instead of the proposed Lynch Creek Plaza. Walgreens will. not locate on the Deer Creek property regardless of the outcome of the Lynch Creek Plaza. The only site that is approved by Walgreens Real Estate Committee is Lynch Creek Plaza. We will have a Walgreens representative from their Real ,Estate Department in attendance at the 'City Council hearing to further substantiate this item. In the coming weeks, we will provide further backup information to support the above findings and to iaddre4SP any other concerns of the Planning Commission that are listed in the meeting minutes. Thank you and please'feel'free to contact me with any questions. Sincerely, • Jim Ste ens Director of Leas and Development Browman Development Company, Inc. 925.588.2224 direct 925.588.2230 fax Istephens(a�browmandevelopment.com cc: file ATTACHMENT 7 Subject: Lynch Creek Plaza Follow Up Items From James Stephens(JStephens @BrowmanDevelopment.com) To: alicia @mplanninggroup:com; Cc: rfaith @phcd.org;rnadale@ phcd.org:heatherh @mplanninggroup:com; Date: Friday, August 16, 2013 12:49 PM Hi Ali, As a follow up to my previous letter appealing the Planning Commission's decision regarding the rezone of the Lynch Creek Plaza property, I am providing further supporting.information about the amount of vacant office space along the NorthMcDoweWBlvd corridor and about Walgreens to help answer some of your questions as you prepare the staff report.We-are also preparing a more:formal submittal to the city that you will have byy the end of next week.We believe that this information would have been beneficial to the Planning Commission hearing and that it is-likely that there would have-been.a more favorable outcome for our project in the hearing if the Planning.Commissioners had this information:at that time. One of the Planning Commission's concerns was that there may be a need for additional medical office in this area and we did net have specific statistics relating to medical office in Petaluma,at the'time of the hearing. Since then, we searched extensively for these figures and found very little information,related specifically to medical office. In speaking.with a number of local commercial brokers, they reiterated the fact that many offices in Petaluma are shared by doctors and other types of offices like'insurance, real estate, and other offices which makes it difficult to differentiate medical office from other types of office space:As an example,there are a variety of non medical office uses on Lynch Creek Way including a'CPA,AAA, Shamrock M aterials,Inc., and a realty office. Within approximately /a mile of the proposed Lynch Creek Plaza,there are at least 9 office vacancies that were former medical office spaces totaling,over.15,000 square feet. There is also a-significant amount of additional land that isssuitable for future medical office space in the immediate vicinity of-the proposed Lynch Creek Plaza. In 2009-the hospital was approved for a 40,000 sf office development on their property in front of the hospital (Lynch Creek.east,ofN. McDowell Blvd). They marketed the property and found-that there was very little interest in the space and they ultimately decided nottoproceed with the.project and the land remains undeveloped and available for future office needs. The Deer Creek Village project is also fully entitled for 12,800 sf of:medical and professional office.From a more long term perspective, most,of the buildin g s on L y nch Creek Wa y are single-story structures and could be re- developed with a higher FAR,tointensify the use of those properties should the demand exist. To help illustrate the condition Of the market for office space in this part of Petaluma, we decided to indicate the amount of vacancies on the attached aerial maps. In summary,there are over 300,000 square feet of vacant office space,along N. McDowell Blvd. between E. Washington Blvd..and just north of Old Redwood Highway, not including 35'Maria Drive, mentioned below. Looking at some citywide comparisons,Petaluma has,the highest amount ofofficespace per capita with 55.96 sf/person when compared to Rohnert Park with 42.05 sf/person and;Santa Rosa with 40.82 sf/person. In other words,,Petaluma has 37% more office space per capita than Santa Rosa and 33% more than Rohnert Park. Please see the attached spreadsheet and backup —{ • information for more detail on this item. - There has also been a recent proposal to,tear down a 16,000 square foot office building"at 35 Maria Drive to build'apartments. This is compelling'ibecause the developer is electing,to°tear-down an existing,office structure due to the adverse market conditions for office space.This site is just over '1.mile.from the hospital and is a strong indication of the lack of demand for medical office:in the area. The Planning Commission also had some,questions about what beneflts.does Walgreens bring to the community.Below is a list of key services and features that Walgreens offers. TRANSITIONAL CARE PROGRAM: The!transitional care program is designed to help on reducing preventable hospital;readmissions+as well as a'focus on increasing HCAPHs score. The program is pharmacist driven and is designed to ease patient's transition from the hospital to their home. It is focused on reduction of preventable readmissions thru medication adherence, and will ultimately impact and lower the overall costs of medical care. The,;program begins with admission,medication reconciliation, then the patient is offered bedside delivery service, and follow up care upon:discharge is done with the patient through clinical interventions from a pharmacist at a call center. BEDSIDE DELIVERY SERVICE Bedside Delivery service is a program that the discharge medications is delivered to the patient's bedside. The focus is to provide a convenientsolution to patients,thus increasing patient medication adherence. The pharmacist counsels on each prescription-that is being delivered and there is a 48 hour follow-up call to address any further questions that the patient might have. COMPETITIVE PRICING:Walgreen's has considerable discount arrangements with providers that will help customers obtain prescriptions with better'pricing. IMMUNIZATIONS: Walgreenpharmacists administer CDC-recommended immunizations from routine vaccines for influenza and whooping cough to travel vaccines for typhoid fever and yellow fever. We also offer back-to-school immunizations for adolescents, as well as a number of vaccines for senior citizens, which can help.prevent4iseases,such+as pneumonia and shingles. We'arethe largest provider of flu shots after the federal government='in-the United States. MEDICARE PART D: Walgreens participates in hundreds of Medicare prescription drug plan networks across theicountry, such as-AARP and First Health Part D. In addition,as part of a preferred pharmacy network of national Medicare Part D'plan sponsors,including Conventry, Humana Inc.,and UnitedHealthcare, we help patients-who are 65 and older understand,their Medicare drug plan benefits and find ways to save money —,with lower copays, for example —by running free drug comparison reports. 7-Z SPECIALTY PHARMACY: Specially pharmacy provides medications for patients who have complex, chronic conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, cancer,multiple sclerosis,cystic fibrosis and more Additionally, many of our'pharmacies have been designated as specialty network locations, which provide disease-specific care for patients with HIV/AIDS, hepatitis C,infertility'and organ and bone marrow transplants. Specialty medications are also available at select retail pharmacies,Health Systems pharmacies and through our central specialty pharmacies. FRESH FOODS: We continue to offer.competitively priced consumables, whose sales have been very strong, particularly for fast, easy, midweek fill-in needs in our conveniently located retail stores. Walgreens has also introduced fresh food at hundreds of locations. In conjunction with efforts by First Lady Michelle Obama and the Partnership for Healthier America to fight the childhood obesity epidemic and provide better food options and accessible health care to under-served communities„Walgreens"has committed to convert or open at least 1,000 food oasis stores across..the country over the next-five years.Walgreens currently offers food oasis locations in Chicago,San Francisco, Oakland and Indianapolis. Walgreens Awards: Fast Company magazine "Fast 50"'issue.(published February 2013) Walgreens ranked as the 7th most innovative health care company for its leadership in redefining the role of the pharmacy. The magazine cited new mobile app features that help patients.manage their medications as well as the company's partnerships with the CDC and the Department-of Health and Human Services to expand in-store HIV testing, which:dreated a new standard for the patient-pharmacy relationship. DiversityBusiness.com Top 50 Organizations for Multicultural Business Opportunities (published January 16,2012) Walgreens ranked 38th overall among the top 50 corporate and organizational buyers of diversity products and services throughout the U.S., according to the more than one million diversity business owners participating in the survey. In addition to theabove,bringing'Walgreens,to Petaluma will keep`more-Petaluma:residents shopping at their local Walgreens•store as opposed to the Walgreens in Cotati, Santa Rosa or San Rafael: Walgreens estimates that"theyare seeing approximately 100 customers per day from Petaluma in the neighboring Walgreens stores in Cotati,Santa Rosa and.San Rafael This equates to approximately $1,000,000 in sales per year from Petaluma residents thatisioccurnng in neighboring cities Not only will this reduce sales leakage,it will also reduce the.generation of greenhouse,gases by allowing residents shop locally as Opposed to making longer range trips out of town to visit Walgreens. As I mentioned earlier, we will be providing further information and detail in our more formal submittal next week. In the meantime,if you have any additional questions,:please do not hesitate to give me a call or email me.

McDowell Blvd Dear Alicia: My understanding is that,ttiere were sonic comments in the recent Lynch Creek Plaza Planning Commission hearing suggesting that Walgreens could locate on.the Deer Creek Village site I would like to reaffirm our position that Walgreen's interest is solely for the Lynch Creek Plaza site at the'NWC of Lynch Creek Way and N. McDowell Blvd in partnership with BDC, Inc. and the PHCD. The Deer Creek Village site does not meet our new store development requirements with or without the ability to obtain a pharmacy prescription pick up window. Walgreens has had continued interest in the Lynch Creek°P11CD.site for over 15 years. The ■ Lynch Creek Plaza location has been approved by Walgreens Real,Estate Committee and we have a Lease ready for execution subject to receipt of governmental entitlements for development of a Walgreens Pharmacy with a pharmaceutical pick up.window. Walgreens is,a convenience oriented retailer,and it is critical for Walgreens success in Petaluma to be located at the hard corner signalized intersection'directly across the street from the hospital. The immediate proximity to the;hospital is ideal for our store given the obvious synergy between medical services and a pharmacy. Walgreens has enjoyed,a beneficial long term relationship with BDC for nearly'25;years on over 20 Walgreens store locations throughout Northern California,,Alaska and Washington with a strong track record of sales performancein BDC developed centers. We also look,forward to partnering with the Petaluma Health Care District and the hospital to serve the community. Please let me-reiterate again; we have no interest in being a part of the Deer Creek Shopping Center and have conveyed this message to Merlone-Geyer onprevioas occasions. In summary,regardless of the outcome of the Lynch Creek Plaza Entitlement hearings, Walgreens has no interest in locating at Deer Creek Village..

Had this information been available to the Planning Commissioners at the hearing and presented in this format, we believe theyrwould`have supported the project. We want to thank you in advance for taking the time to thoroughly review the information in this, document. We have done our very best So address questions;and advocate for a development opportunity that will serve an unmet need and significantly benefit the health and local economy of the Petaluma community, as well as help preserve the viability of local health services, including Petaluma Valley Hospital and the Emergency Room. Seeking approval for the Walgreens;project requues addressing two main issues (1) approval to amend the general plan and rezone the property to develop the Walgreens; and (2) approval of a phannacy pick up window. The.key`points to support the rationale for<the District's request are as follows: • There is no need for medicalofficespace in Petaluma:andthe current zoning and general plan designation as Business Park is of no benefit to the community. The,originally• intended use of the Lynch Creek Parcel would not serve the community'or she District. • Walgreens offers innovative retail pharmacy services that do not exist in Petaluma, and, as a result, Petaluma-residents_are'leaving;our city to go,to Walgreens' outside.Petaluma. For every-resident wholeaves Petaluma to go to another Walgreens location,we are losing revenue for our city. o Walgreens will partner with our local hospital and doctors''offices in assisting patients/customers with medication adherence and safe medication administration. This partnership`will decrease thecostofhealth care in general and have.a positive financial 1425 Noah McDowell Blvd.,Suite 103, Petaluma,CA._e(707)285-2 143 .Fax(707)285-2277 • 1 www.phed.org x.-15 impact on ourhospitaF'bydecreasing hospital-re-admissions and improving-the health and recovery of individuals. • The pharmacy pick up window serves an unmet need in our community: With the mitigations we are proposing and by keeping Petaluma:shoppers in Petaluma, gas ;emissions will not increase and will not have a negative impact on air quality. o .Revenue generated from this project will help position the Petaluma Health Care District to continue to provide needed financial support to our local hospital and Emergency 'Department, our physicians, and our local non profits at a time when resources are limited, reimbursement for care is decreasing, and the impact of health care reform is uncertain. Genera/Plan Amendment: The District purchased the Lynch Creekparcel from Friedinan's over 30 years ago with the intent to build a medical office•.building. In the mid 80's,local physicians purchased property along Lynch Creek Way and,built their own office space,thus'lessening demand for additional office space on our property..'The property has remained a dormant asset for the District. Over the last 15 years,.the District has,commissioned studies and looked for ways to turn this property into a productive asset, and in each case,the identified ideal use has been to develop a pharmacy on the property. Recent attempts to,develop office space at this intersection have failed: In 2009 the District was,approved fora 40,000:sq. ft medical office development"on the hospital campus. The District marketed the property and found that there was very little interest in medical office space. The District ultimatelysdecided not to proceed with the project and the hospital campus remains available for future medical office needs. There has also been a recent;proposal,to tear down 16,000 square feet of office buildings at 35 Maria Drive to build residential units. This is compelling because the developer is electing to tear down existing office structures and replace with residential units due to the adverse market conditions for office space. This site is just over 1/2 mile from the hospital and is another strong indication of the lack of demand for medical office space in thearea. Looking at some citywide comparisons, Petaluma has the highest amount of office space per capita with 55.96 sf/person when compared to Rohnert Park with 42.05 sf/person and Santa Rosa with 40.82 sf/person. In other words, Petaluma has 37% more office space per capita than Santa Rosa and 33%more than Rohnert Park(see Exhibit A). In the Planning Commission hearing,staff pointed out that Petaluma has an overabundance of office space with a vacancy rate of approximately 25%. However, the Planning Commission's concern was that there may be a need for additional medical office'space near the hospital. Unfortunately, we did not have specific statistics relating to medical office in Petaluma at the time of the hearing. Since then,we researched extensively for these figures and found very little information related specifically to medical office. In speaking withsa nuniber df local commercial brokers, they reiterated the fact that many offices in Petaluma are,shared by doctors and other types of offices like insurance, real estate, and other offices which makes it difficult to differentiate medical office from:other types of office space. As an example, there are a variety 1425 North McDowell Blvd., Suite 103, Petaluma,CA. e (707)285-2143 o Fax(707)285-2277 e 2 laww.phcd'org I W/^/ �'\. i of non-medical officeuses,on L'ynch Creek Way including a,CPA, AAA, Shamrock, Inc., and a ;realty office. Within approximately:''/ mile of the proposed Lynch:Creek Plaza; there are at least nine (9)office vacancies that were former medical office spaces totaling over 15,000 square feet There is also a significant atnount.of.additional land that is;suitable-for future medical office space in the immediate vicinity of the proposed Lynch Creek.Plaza including the hospital land (approximately 40,000 square feet of future buildable office,space owned by PHCD) mentioned above and 12,800 sf of medical and professional office that is fully entitled on the Deer Creek Village'site. As well, most of the buildings on Lynch Creek Way are;single story structures and could be re-developed with a higher FAR to intensify the use of those properties should the demand exist. To further illustrate the condition of the market for office space in this part,,of Petaluma, we have detailed the amount of vacancies on the N. McDowell Corridoron the attached aerial maps and spreadsheet (see Exhibits B"and.C). In summary, thereare-over 300,000 square feet of vacant office space along N. McDowell,Blvd. between E. Washington Blvd. and just north of Old Redwood Highway,not including 35.Maria Drive. This information was not available for the Planning Commission hearing. Given these market conditions,;from a fiduciary responsibility, it•,would make no sense for the District to develop the parcel as Was:originally intended. As you know,the General Planis+aguide for future development and intended to be a living document. Guiding,principles.of the general plan include fostering and promoting economic diversity and..opportunities in'.the.City and expanding retail opportunities to meet resident's needs and promote the City's fiscal health,while ensuring that-,,new development is'in keeping with Petaluma's character. Related General Plan Policies that address the guiding principles mentioned include (1) retain and attract`basic economic activities that bring;doilars into the local economy; (2) expand and diversify Petaluma's retail base;and(3)plan and locate retail uses appropriately for their types and sites available. Based on the General Plan guiding principles and general policies mentioned,the proposed request to amend the General•Plan-is supported by the following; o Walgreens does not exist-in Petaluma and would bring economic and retail diversity through their innovative retail pharmacy services and programs and their business strategy to partner with local hospitals, physician offices and residents to improve medication adherence and safety. While there are other;pharmacies in Petaluma, Walgreens' ability to,partner with local providers and their retail pharmacy services exceed what is currentlyoffered in Petaluma, In other words,the Walgreens project,ivill expand retail opportunities to serve community need. The following are services Walgreens offers: o Walgreens offers a pharmacy pick up window which-will address an unmet need for the seniors,the sick, those with limited mobility,-parents with sick children, and children with aging parents. Keeping people that are sick-out Of the general public reduces the potential for the spread of diseases. Those with limited mobility can have easy access rather than having to walk, stand and wait. 1425 Nonh McDowell Blvd., Suite 103. Petaluma, CA. o (707)285-2143 o Fax,(707)285-2277 e 3 www.phcd.org x-11 o Walgreens offers TransitionabCare=Program partnering with local health care providers and Petaluma Valley Hospital, designed.to ease;a patient's transition from hospital to home and help reduce preventable hospital readmissions through medication adherence and mcdicatiorl safety': The program includes pharmacist consultation and follow-up. The Transition Care Program will ultimately lower the overall costs of medical care by increasing medication safety and improving individual health and recovery. o As,part of the Transitional Care Program; Walgreens offers Bedside Delivery Service,bringing•discharge predications to the.patient's hospital bedside. The pharmacist counsels the patient on each prescription and provides a 48 hour follow-up call to address any further questions that the patient might have. o Walgreens provides comprehensive Medication Reconciliation. Both in-store and as part of the Transitional Care Program, Walgreens pharmacists thoroughly reviews all medications to ensure all orders are correct, and discrepancies and dangerous drug-combinations are identified and avoided. Medication reconciliation saves,lives. o Walgreens offers Competitive Pricing, offering considerable discount arrangements with providers that will help customers obtain prescriptions with better pricing. o Walgreens pharmacists administer Center for Disease,Control (CDC) recommended Immunizations from routine influenza and whooping cough vaccines to travel vaccines for typhoid fever and yellow fever; Walgreens offers back-to-school:ih munizations for adolescents, as Weil as a number of vaccines for 'senior citizens which can help prevent diseases such as pneumonia and shingles. o The project's location across the street from the Hospital;and next door to physician offices.fosters the partnership between Walgreens and our local hospital. Walgreens will serve as an extension Of the hospital and physician offices. • Walgreens reports a measurable•amount of Petaluma residents per day access Walgreens' outside Petaluma The Petaluma Health Center alone wrote 8,837 prescriptions to.. _ _ _ Walgreens;in 2012 (air average of 736 per month) and has written 7,558 prescriptins for the period January 1, 2013 through August 21, 2013 (an average of 945 per month). Based on this information, Walgreens' number of Petaluma Health•,Center customers is increasing rapidly, with a 28%increase from 2012 to 2013 (see Exhibit D). A Petaluma Walgreens will'improve•the city's economic health by bringingdollars,back into our local community and assisting our local hospital in decreasing'hospital readmissions. As hospitals across the country are faced with growing economic challenges and our nation is engaging in comprehensive health care reform, reducing preventable hospital readmissions'is seen as part of a solution to decrease the cost of health care. Avoidable hospital readmissions are costly and should and can be prevented. One of the principle components of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) of 2010 is to alter payment for readmissions as a means to improve or eliminate high costs that result in lower'quality. Hospitals will be fined and will not be reimbursed for care provided to Medicare patients that are readmitted within 30 days 1425 North McDowellBIvd.,;Suite 103, Petaluma.CA. • (707)285-2143 • Fax(707)285-2277 0 4 www.phcd.ora l_I V of discharge for the same diagnosis. Safe transitions from hospital to home will decrease unnecessary hospital readmissions: hi November 2012 the California Hospital Association conducted an analysis:for all hospitals to determine what the projected financial impact could be based on their Medicare readmission rates. The analysis showed at that time Petaluma Valley Hospital is projected to lose $120,000/year based on their current readmission rates. A partnership with Walgreens will`'assist our local hospital in reducing unnecessary readmissions and saving money. During the Planning Commission hearing, a local resident asked why the Petaluma Valley Hospital couldn't just partner with another phaunacy in town. The answer is this Walgreens' business strategy is to partner with local hospitals and health care providers to assist in medication adherence-and.medication safety and they are being recognized far doing so. Petaluma Valley Hospital reached out;to Walgreens because of their community partnership business strategy to improve medication access, provide education for local residents, and engage in a collaborative approach for safe transition from hospital to home. Pick Up Pharmacy Window: The District believes that focusing on air quality within our City and ensuring adherence to federal and state air quality standards and goals is critical to the health of our community. We understand that the City has'anordinance that prohibits new drive-thru food and service facilities with the exception'of vehicle servicing businesses, and limits expansion of the drive-thru components of existing facilities which increase idling vehicles. The General Plan also cites that discretionary approvals for such facilities shall include provisions which decrease or eliminate idling vehicles, to the extent feasible and practical. The Walgreens pharmacy pick,up window serves a critical and unmet need in the city—easy access to medication and pharmacy health services for seniors, the ill, those with limited mobility, and adults with sick children or sick parents. A pharmacy pick up window would significantly reduce the physical,burden and discomfort of individuals in our community who have difficulty getting out of their cars, walking, or standing for long periods of time Moreover, keeping those infected with illness away from the general public reduces the spread of infection and disease. This is a major.public health issue, particularly during the flu season. As discussed earlier,residents are"currently going outside of Petaluma to a Walgreens for their prescriptions and other needs. Customers who use Walgreens tell us it's because of the convenience, cost and service that Walgreens offers. The pharmacy pickup window is a public health benefit and convenient service that currently does not exist in our_community and it should. The District's Walgreens project is committed to reducing emissions in the following ways to offset the potential greenhouse gases (GHGs) caused by the pickup window: o Install "No Idling"signage;instructing customers to turn off their cars while they wait thereby reducing GHGs by more than 50%. 1425 North McDowell Blvd., Suite 103. Petaluma. CA. a (707)285,2143 e Fax(707)285-2277 e 5 www.phcd.org • Implement:additional-energy saving measures`to theprojectto offsetthe incremental GHGs caused by the pickup window resulting in a netzero+increase of GHGs caused by the pickup window.. • Keep customers shopping-in Petaluma instead of going to Walgreens outside of town thereby reducing greenhouse gases. For each customer leaving the center of Petaluma to drive to Walgreens' closest store, Cotati, and then return.home, this generates 15.6 pounds of GHGs/day or 2:6 metric tons of GHGs/year: In comparison, the total annual usage of the pick up window is estimated to generate approximately 3.5 metric tons of GHGs/year (with the installation of"No Idling" signage.) Therefore, if we were to keep just two Petaluma customers from driving to Cotati Walgreens each day, we would more than offset the GHGs caused by the pick up window(16`MT/yr x 2 customers = 5.2 MT/yr versus 3.5 MT/yr). The reality is that this store will keep many more customers shopping in Petaluma than is necessary to offset the GHGs from the pick up:window. The Petaluma Health Center alone writes approximately 31 prescriptions each day to Walgreens which has the potential to generate approxiniately'80 metric tons of GHGs per year (2:6MT/yr x 31 customers= 80 MT/yr)without the development of a Petaluma Walgreens store (see Exhibit E). The District asks:that the City Council use its discretion and approve the pharmacy pick up window in consideration of the unmet need it will serve while not negatively impacting GHGs. The District is committed'to=heinga;good neighbor. We have reached out personally to those that have expressed concerns and are continuing to make strides to address those concerns. Additionally, the District contacted Merlon Geier to address any coneems they might have and discuss how both projects would benefit one another. Despite;thetletter from Merlon Geier that was sent to the Planning Department, District CEO was told via email and via phone call that Merlone Geier has no issues:or,concerns with the District's project. Our understanding is that they merely want,the same consideration from the City Council if they were to propose a:similar use with a pick up window: The proposed Lynch Creek Plaza project is a joint venture between Petaluma Health Care District and Browman Development Company allowing the District to retain ownership of the property and generate revenue;from its rental stream. The District selected Browman Development Company as a partner because of their focus on long term ownership and developing quality projects for their own portfolio and their long standing track record in developing successful.Walgreens projects, among others.:In'this joint venture, the District will co-own the property with Browman Development Company and jointly make key decisions on the property that are-in line with the Districts mission and values and Browman Development's focus on quality retail developments. The Petaluma Health Cate District's mission is to improve the health of the Petaluma community and serve as a broad safety net`to:improve health and ensure local access to needed health related. services.in Southern Sonoma.County. Since 1946, the.District has ensured residents have a local community hospital-and an Emergency Room. In the-early 2000's when the viability of the Petaluma Health Center was at risk,the Petaluma Health Care District supported the Health 1425 North McDowell Blvd., Suite 103, Petaluma, CA. • (707)285-2143 • Fax-(707)285-2277 • 6 phed.ore. Center to ensure the Health Center was able to_continue to,servethe Petaluma Community. Over the,past;10 years, the District has invested more=than $12 million dollars into.the community to support access to local health services and programs, specifically Petaluma.Valley.Hospital and the Emergency Department, physician recruitment and retention, Petaluma Health Center, and service'providers and local nonprofits that strive to improve the health and quality of life of our residents (see Exhibit F). In summary, the Lynch Creek Plaza Walgreens Project will fill an unmet community need and significantly improve the health of our residents and local economy of the Petaluma community. Additionally this project will,help preserve the viability of local health services and programs, including Petaluma Valley;Hospital and the Emergency Room.

This computation was completed in relation to-the proposed retail development project at the northwest corner of Lynch Creek Way and North:McDowell Boulevard in Petaluma. A G1-IG assessment addressing !compliance with CEQA was previously prepared for the project by Illingworth & Rodkin, Inc. in-September of 2012. The results of this computation are presented here for informational purposes only. Methodology Mobile GHG emissions were computed using the California Air Resources Board's EMFAC201 I emission factor model. Carbondioxide,(CU2) emissions factors for Sonoma.County autos and light-duty trucks were averaged'across all model years, speeds and fuel types and then''adjusted for pounds per day of CO, and also metric tons per year based on the above scenario. It was assumed that one customer would travel an average of about 20 miles roundtrip from Petaluma to the Cotati Walgreens and back. One daily customer trip was run as a scenario at the project applicant's request. CO2 is the primary GHG emitted from vehicle travel. Mobile Emissions The results of modeling this..scenario;indicate that one customer travelling:roundtrip.from Petaluma to the Cotati Walgreens would emit approximately 15:6 pounds of CO2 per day, or 2.6 metric tons of CO2 per year-at 365 trips per year. This concludes our GHG mobile emissions computation. If you have any questions or comments,please feel free to contact me at(707)794-0400,x. 35. We appreciate the opportunity to assist you.

It has been brought to my attention that up for your consideration is a permit for a Walgreen's retail center with an entrance on Lynch Creek. I have practiced here for over 25 years and been proud of the professionalism of the Lynch Creek medical/dental complex.. There are no large advertising signs and I believe patients feel they are well treated by my medical and dental colleagues. My understanding when I purchased my suite at 131A was that I was in an area designated "Business Park/Medical use". I feel it is inappropriate to allow a large retail store(selling everything from ice cream to beer as well as medications) to be on the comer of Lynch Creek Way. Large trucks will certainly be necessarily for deliveries with additional traffic and noise. It will change the character of the neighborhood. Our small zone of medical and dental offices around the hospital is quite appropriate and reflects well on the city. A new Walgreens is fine but let's locate it in the adjacent new shopping center which is being built. Sincerely, Michael Koffler, DMD 5-z August 23, 2013 Petaluma City Council C/o Alicia Giudice 11 English Street Petaluma, CA 94952 RE: In Support of Proposed Walgreens Project— Lynch Creek Plaza Dear Members of the City Council: I support the proposed Lynch Creek Plaza project with Walgreens. As a parent of a young child (22 month old), I.can attest first hand that it is venpdifficult to first drive your sick child to the doctor, get a prescription and then bring them into the pharmacy to get their prescription. Not only is this difficult for the parent, it is also very uncomfortable for the child, who,invariably has a fever, chills, aches, etc. Afterdoing this a couple times, I made the decision to just drive up,to Walgreens in Cotati, because they have a convenient drive up window and my daughter can hopefully sleep in the car instead of going into the store with me. When I heard that there was a new Walgreens-with drive up window coming to town I was thrilled that we wouldn't have to go to Cotati anymore. Then I:heard the Planning Commission.turned them down because it isn't the correct zoning. This-was-very disappointing. It makes a lot of sense to have a pharmacy across from the hospital and in cases like this, shouldn't we be making exceptions, or changes to the general plan and zoning. The Petaluma Health Care District does a lot of good work in the community, including ensuring that we have a hospital with an emergency room in our town, shouldn't we be supporting'them? Please support this project. It is the right thing for our town.

McDowell Blvd I would like to express my support for the proposed Petaluma Health Care District Lynch Creek Plaza Walgreens project at Lynch Creek Way and N. McDowell Blvd. Key health benefits to our community: 1 6 -1 • Walgreens offers a 'pharmacy pick up window which will address an unmet need .for the seniors, the sick, those with limited mobility, parents with sick'.children, and children with aging parents. Keeping people that are sick out of the general public reduces'the potential for the spread of diseases. Those with limited mobility can have easy access rather than having to walk, stand and wait. • Walgreens offers a Transitional Care Program partnering with local health care providers and Petaluma Valley Hospital, designed to ease a patient's transition from hospital to home and help reduce preventable hospital :readmissions through medication adherence and medication safety. The program includes pharmacist consultation and follow-up. The'Transition Care Program will ultimately lower the overall costs of medical care by increasing medication safety, and improving individual:health and recovery. • As part of the Transitional Care Program, Walgreens offers Bedside Delivery Service, bringing discharge medications to the patient's hospital bedside. The pharmacist counsels the patient on each prescription and provides a 48 hour follow-up call to address any further questions that the patient might have. • Walgreens provides comprehensive Medication Reconciliation. Both in-store and as part of the Transitional Care Program, Walgreens pharmacists thoroughly reviews all medications to ensure all orders are correct, and discrepancies and dangerous drug combinations are identified and avoided. Medication reconciliation saves lives. • Walgreens offers Competitive Pricing, offering considerable discount arrangements with 'providers that will help customers obtain prescriptions with better pricing. • Walgreens pharmacists administer Center for Disease Control (CDC) recommended Immunizations from routine influenza and whooping cough vaccines to travel vaccines for typhoid fever and yellow fever. Walgreens offers back-to-school immunizations for adolescents, as well as a number of vaccines for senior citizens which can help prevent diseases such as pneumonia and shingles. • Walgreens participates in hundreds of Medicare prescription drug plan networks, such as.AARP and First Health Part D. As part of a preferred pharmacy network of national Medicare Part D Plan sponsors, Walgreens helps patients who are 65 and older understand 2 © -Cj 0 their Medicare drug plan benefits and finds ways'to save money by running free drug'tomparison reports which results in lower co-pays. Key economic benefits to our community: • Approximately 1.00. Petaluma residents per day use Walgreens in Cotati and San Rafael for service, convenience of a pick up window, and lower costs. Keeping business in Petaluma should be our goal. This is lost revenue for our city. • Petaluma Health Care District's partnership with,Walgreens will enable the District:to turn a non-revenue generating parcel of land into a revenue earning parcel used to reinvest back into our community's health and medical needs. The Petaluma Health Care District has invested over 12 million dollars over the past 10 years to improve the health of our community and ensure local access to quality health care services and community health programs — specifically hospital, physician recruitment and retention, health center and non profits who provide key services to improve the quality of life of our residents. The community benefits from the District's ability to continue to invest in the health of our community. • Walgreens will create local jobs and generate sales tax revenue for our city. Thank you in advance.for your support. Anthy O'Brien 707.325.9797 (ce/!) 3 8-C) • Planning Comrnission ATTACHMENT 9 City of Petaluma, CA 4p' " .3�.
