National CORE and Santa Ana United Methodist Church have engaged with community <br />residents from the initiation of this project to ensure the development will serve as an asset to the <br />community. This development will fold into this community beautifully. The Lacy <br />neighborhood will have a new SAUSD Wellness Center and a new city park by the year 2020. <br />The park at the intersection of 6th and Lacy will be a five-minute walk from the Legacy Square <br />development and have play equipment, skate elements, and open space to serve the Lacy <br />neighborhood families. The SAUSD Wellness Center will provide free programming tailored to <br />the needs and interests of the neighborhood families. Legacy Square will provide families with <br />affordable housing that will allow them to remain in this neighborhood and reap the <br />benefits of the new SAUSD Wellness Center and the new city park. <br />National CORE has developed a project that truly reflects the needs of the neighborhood <br />community the affordable housing development will serve. More affordable housing is <br />desperately needed in Santa Ana, and we look forward to the project's implementation. We ask <br />you to support Santa Ana residents by voting to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration <br />Resolution, adopt a Resolution supporting National CORE's submittal of an application <br />for the Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities Program, and approve the <br />Density Bonus Agreement. <br />Sincerely, <br />Santa Ana Building Healthy Communities <br />Board Committee <br />
