A new 40,000 sq. foot shooting range and retail gun store is being installed at 3443 Routier Rd. in Rancho Cordova, CA
DIRECTLY NEXT DOOR FROM GEORGE WASHINGTON CARVER HIGH SCHOOL
-Across the street from A.M. Winn Elementary School -New Orchard Senior Activity Center, and Lincoln Village Park -Near New Life Preschool -Mayhew Community Baptist Church -Quail Pointe Apartments
According to the City Planner, because this gun range is a legal business it required no special notice or opportunity for public comment before it was approved.
-JUST BECAUSE ITS LEGAL DOESN'T MAKE IT RIGHT.
Concerned citizens were told at a recent Rancho Cordova City Council meeting that because this is a legal business, and a because "significant amount of financial investment has already gone into developing this facility" by Fite Developers, there is nothing that can be done to change the location of this gun store and shooting range.
Nothing can be done to protect our kids? Fite Developers owns several other plots in our region and should not have invested in such a central location without more community partnership. Fite can find another site.
-JUST BECAUSE ITS LEGAL DOESN'T MAKE IT RIGHT.
-Kids come first -Gun stores and shooting ranges don't belong near schools -Fite can find another site.
