Suggestions for Triangle Square improvements

I would love to see an Applebee’s Restaurant there. I love

Applebee’s Restaurant, and there aren’t any near us in Orange County,

the closest being Fountain Valley.

Also I would like easier access for people with disabilities or

with strollers in Triangle Square. I would love to shop at the Gap

but have to walk a whole city block to get to the front door, it’s

just too much. I don’t understand why they can’t have an entrance

directly from the garage into the Gap. It would be a lot easier to

get around. Anyway, I hope they make some improvements. It’s a nice

shopping center, but it needs a lot of work.

I think they should have a bowling alley and a nightclub

downstairs where the market used to be.

Former committee member disappointed

I was a member of the Costa Mesa Human Relations Committee from

1993 to 1999, and I am very disappointed to read that the very

committee that was created to foster harmony in such a diverse

community as ours has in fact become the cause for disharmony.

If there are any members on the Human Relations Committee with an

agenda other than carrying out the mission and goals of the

committee, they should tender their resignation now.

Pilot’s new look garners kudos and suggestions

Congratulations to the Daily Pilot for your new “Your Work Week”

section.

With an emphasis on business, the section is an outstanding

service to the many businesses in the Newport Beach-Costa Mesa

community.

As this area continues to mature, business plays a fundamental,

but important part in its success. The Daily Pilot staff has taken a

proactive step to make this publication more relevant to today’s

active employers and employees, as well as to the consumer.

We at the Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce applaud the Daily

Pilot for looking to the future of our community and providing an

important new addition to its successful publication.

I’m just getting used to the new look of the Pilot. Change is

inevitable, so I guess change is a good thing.

I used to throw the Pilot when I was a kid back in Huntington

Beach when the Pilot was over in Huntington Beach also. I’m an

airline pilot and the only thing that I want left over when I come

back home are the three days worth of Daily Pilots to find out what’s

going on in the local area. You guys do a great job.

Now with that said, here is my comment. What is the criteria for

whether or not you put an address relating with a story?

I would submit that historically that’s the one thing I have a

hard time with.

When we’re talking about various projects in and around the city,

there’s no indication as to where they are or even a general area.

For example, the Habitat for Humanity project, which I’ve been

following, it would be nice to know generally where that is.

Anyway, keep doing what you’re doing with the Pilot. Put those

addresses and those cross-streets in there and maps, I love maps.

Is something amiss with city’s reclaimed water?

I was wondering if anyone else in the Newport Beach area that has

a homeowners association such as ours utilizing reclaimed water to

keep the green belts watered and watering the plants, has any kind of

illness appearing with their animals.

My cat that eats the grass outside over the last few months has

gone through a series of increased vomiting, upset stomach and

someone mentioned to me that it could possibly be some chemicals in

the water, and I was wondering if anyone else in the area was

experiencing that kind of effect.
