Victor Crist New Spokesperson For Trader Joe's?

Wouldn't it be great to have a Trader Joe's in the north end of our county in Carrollwood
Trader Joe's website has a page devoted to soliciting recommendations for new store locations. I believe a new store on the SW corner of West Village Drive and Ehrlich Road would be a fantastic addition to the Carrollwood community. A Trader Joe's store could add a new dimension to the shopping needs of the area and fill a void in an empty shopping center that has been the focal point of contentious redevelopment plans. I have personally reached out to Trader Joe's in the past and now believe that with strong community input and support, we can get serious consideration. If you feel strongly for the addition of a good neighborhood partner and positive economic impact in the Carrollwood area, please consider going to the Trader Joe's website (link provided below) and adding your comments.
This is what I wrote:
There is perfect site in Carrollwood on the SW corner of Ehrlich Road and West Village Drive in Tampa Florida.  Plenty of parking, a large available site and easy access.   The thousands of nearby neighbors would be strong supporters.  Please feel free to contact me as I would like to make a stronger pitch and let you know about our community.  Please visit our website at http://www.carrollwoodvillage.com.  Thank you for your consideration
Hillsborough County Commissioner Victor Crist
