To build this apartment complex will cost much more than <br />affordable housing, and only people with middle to high incomes <br />will be able to live there. And to pack so many people into one <br />small space will only cause more problems. Anyone who can <br />afford to live at this structure can also afford to purchase a house, <br />and the tenants will become transitory as people who first move in <br />will find that living in such a small space is undesirable and will <br />strive to move somewhere else; therefore, this "apartment" building <br />will increase transitory tenants and increase crime as a result. <br />To develop a strong vibrant cohesive community, you need people <br />who are going to stay. People who are going to purchase homes. People <br />who will work and spend where they live. The future residents of <br />this structure will become people who move here to work at <br />jobs that will promote them to other jobs in other areas. <br />Add to that the strain on the local city itself by adding these <br />temporary residents, and you will see big shifts in the "community" <br />you have been voted into office to protect and serve. <br />This "deal" for this 2525 Main Street project is all about money. Ture <br />Santa Ana will benefit from the initial taxes, but at what cost? A <br />rise in crime, which will increase police presence, a rise in transitory <br />residents which will not give stability to our precious community. And <br />a rise in traffic which will increase the need for road repairs and in the <br />158 <br />
