I am a Campbell resident and would love to see an In and Out burger in Campbell. I usually have to driver to the In and Out on Coleman Avenue close to the airport and I regularly take my kids there so having a location closer to home would be very helpful. I think the proposed space where Elephant bar used to be is a good location and it looks like it would work great for a commercial setting like an In and Out burger. I am in favor of opening an In and Out at this location. In and Out delivers consistently good food at an affordable price and their locations are always busy and a success because they run their business so well.

Yes, yes, yes! I would love an In-and-Out in Campbell! Campbell is beginning to make a name for itself with our wonderful downtown area. In-and-Out is a great company. The food is awesome and they pay a great wage to their employees. We could bring large revenues to our amazing city! I would be thrilled to have a local In-and-Out! PLEASE!!!

I am a Campbell resident for 2 years now. My wife and I would love to have an In-n-Out Burger restaurant in Campbell. Occasionally, we traveled to other neighbor towns to visit this restaurant, and having one close by would be awesome.
The restaurant will definitely be an attraction for many people, both Campbell residents and non-residents. There are many other fast-food restaurants in the areas, some of which are good, some not so good. In-n-Out is known for its better-quality products, that's why it is so popular when comparing it to other fast-food chains.
Also, I am sure the new restaurant will will create new jobs for Campbell residents too, which is another great advantage.
As for the traffic problems... Cars go in in and out from the "drive through" area slowly. I've never seen a ton of cars entering a drive though of a restaurant, or causing traffic congestion. Cars are slow when going in, or out, especially that they will have to yield to all traffic going on the main road.
Finally, there already was a restaurant in the place where In-n-Out restaurant is planning to be built. Did that restaurant cause major traffic issues to the area? No, it didn't. Yes, In-n-Out may get more visitors. Anyway, I don't think it will have such a major impact on traffic, to prohibit the restaurant from being built there.

Yes, I am in favor of this proposal and look forward to a clean family-oriented place to eat. This will bring much need jobs for our youth. We have plenty of places that cater to younger crowds that also include serving alcohol but not enough places that you can comfortably bring the whole family.

All members of my family are In n Out fans!! Currently we must drive considerable distance - Sunnyvale, Mountain View or South San Jose - money that could be spent in Campbell!!
The stats posted regarding drive thru' queue, parking and seating appear quite substantial and appropriately planned for this property. While I understand the concerns regarding traffic, any business going into this location is bound to generate traffic and it seems logical to approve one such as In n Out that will bring substantial tax revenue to Campbell.

I live in the Hamann Park neighborhood and work in Campbell, driving past this intersection on my way to work. I absolutely support the In n Out! This will of course increase traffic, but right now the location is vacant and a blight. SOME business is going to be put here, that business will try to serve the public and as many customers as possible, so, traffic is going to increase no matter what. Since traffic will be increasing, we might as well have ready access to tasty and affordable hamburgers, fries, and shakes!

I'd like to see an In-N-Out Burger here in Campbell. I live in San Jose, but I work full time in Campbell.

The Bascom/Hamilton area is full of abandoned buildings and in desperate need of improvements. It seems like the local residents would rather see vacancies or massage parlors rather than growth, because of "traffic". The abandoned Elephant Bar is one of the eye sores that would be greatly improved. The area is larger and less trafficked than the space In-n-Out Occupies on El Camino in Mountain View which does not cause collateral impact.

Looking forward to this and all the future business openings.

I am in support of an In-N-Out restaurant coming to Campbell. I have no affiliation with the company, but I am a fan of their food and their company ethics.

The in-N-Out company is known as a high quality employer across several states and as one that makes it a point to pay its employees ABOVE minimum wage.

It is also a California based company that prides itself on the quality of its suppliers as well as its involvement in the communities that it is a part of.

The development of this project at the intersection at Hamilton and Almarida Ave. also provides the City with the opportunity to redesign the traffic flow as well as to upgrade the signal timing equipment via fees charged to the developer for the new construction.

With the recent loss of the Steak'n'Shake restaurant in the downtown area, its hard to make the claim that Campbell is becoming over "burger-fied". In fact, the concerns over the drastic increase in traffic and congestion proved to be unfounded.

I also say this remembering that the Johnny Rockets diner at the Pruneyard was replaced by a pizza restaurant and there were no protests against it or the other pizza restaurants have been added to Campbell since then.

The location on Hamilton for a restaurant of In-N-Out's type is perfect for the kind of traffic flow that the area already experiences. This restaurant chain also has ample experience with designing their locations to maximize customer flow. If anyone can design a location to minimize the traffic impact to the area, its this company.

And, with any luck, people coming from Hwy-17 or San Thomas Expressway to visit the In-N-Out will see OTHER Campbell businesses to stop at and spend money.

I am in support of having an In and Out Burger in the location of the old Elephant Bar and Grill. I hope you can start construction as soon as possible as the state of the abandoned building is rapidly declining with graphiti and overgrown weeds and becoming an eyesore for the community!

Allow the business to open. The complaints seem to be around the business’ popularity, which is not a bad thing. That means it will bring jobs and tax revenue. A site that is in use is better than a site sitting vacant.
