City of Santa Ana <br />Attn: City Clerk <br />P.O. Box 1988 M30 <br />Santa Ana, CA 92701 <br />Dear Members of the City Council: <br />77 (ACT 24 PM 3. 10 <br />CITY OF SANTA ANA <br />CLERK OF COUNCIL <br />I am a resident of Santa Ana. I am writing to protest the proposal <br />to increase rates on water and sewer services. First, I am concerned <br />residents were given a short notice of the proposed increase and the <br />Public hearing date. <br />In 2015, the city proposed water and sewer hikes for five years. <br />claiming the money generated by the water increase would solely be <br />used for water and sewer -related service and maintenance. When in fact <br />water funds were transferred to the General funds to be used for other <br />city expenditures. The City received over 200 letters of protests. The letters <br />were ignored and the water rates were increased. <br />The city is now again proposing to increase water and sewer rates, <br />which are not justified. The city cannot continue taxing residents with <br />unnecessary water rate increases. <br />I strongly urge you to oppose the proposed water and sewer rate <br />increase. <br />Sincerely, <br />Santa Ana, California <br />
