Apply for federal and state grants with specific targets for how the money <br />will be spent. Use eminent domain to rid the city of dilapidated buildings <br />and free up new development opportunities in a focused and well - <br />planned redevelopment program. Until this city rids itself of the enormous <br />homeless burden, there will be very minimal incentive for business and <br />workforce development or influx of revenue generators. <br />47. 1 think the city should hire better -qualified professionals who know how to <br />solve those problems, then present those specific solutions to the residents, <br />rather than putting out blanket surveys that don't really have actionable <br />solutions. <br />48. "Increase employees in Code Enforcement. Make starting a business in SA <br />less cumbersome." <br />49. Reduce crime <br />50. As a County seat SA does not have a positive reputation. SA is known for <br />its drugs, gangs, and poor quality of school education. And highest taxes. <br />I live in SA but do not shop in SA -how sad. I'm afraid to go out at night in <br />SA.

In reference to promoting business attraction I believe new business <br />owners should be treated like new students in an institution where there <br />are programs and tools that are handed to them in order to help them <br />succeed.

A new cohort can be established every year and the cohort can <br />also work as a community of business owners and create a relationship <br />and another resource for themselves. <br />52. Remove the sanctuary status, increase police force, remove landlords <br />that promote drug and substance abuse housing. <br />53. Santa Ana badly needs more police resources. Last time I called 91 1, 1 <br />reported a home robbery and I waited over 90 minutes for police <br />response. Other times I have reported trespassing and drug activity in <br />empty houses, and police arrive several hours later, allowing the suspects <br />more than enough time to leave the scene. We need faster response <br />time. <br />54. Separate pedestrian, bike and vehicle lanes. <br />55.
