Salas, Diana <br />From: <br />Sent: <br />To: <br />Subject: <br />Good afternoon — <br />Rory Strong <roryoryl@gmail.com> <br />Tuesday, March 17, 2020 12:42 PM <br />eComment <br />Moratorium re: Evictions <br />I am writing to you this afternoon to express my sincere hope that you will consider enacting an immediate <br />moratorium on evictions within the city of Santa Ana. With all the scrambling that's happening regarding <br />Covid-19, thousands of people are struggling to hold on to safety and security. While we all await further <br />updates from the CDC, and while the federal and state governments decide how to support those who have lost <br />wages during this time, I believe it is absolutely imperative that evictions be put on hold. It is simply not <br />realistic to expect people in the midst of this chaos to be able to continue life as usual; the consequences of <br />potential homelessness for thousands come April is far more dire than any delay on rent checks would be. <br />People are afraid, and many are living paycheck to paycheck, including myself. When that paycheck isn't <br />coming, in a time of national emergency, I believe it is imperative for people to be able to retain their housing. <br />Thank you for your time and consideration. <br />- Rory <br />
