As I am sure you know, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused financial ob- <br />stacles for the city of Santa Ana. According to Finance Director Downs, San= to Ana is experiencing $12 million in losses <br />this year alone due to hits to= sales taxes, parking fines, special collected fees and other sources of re= <br />venue.=C2=A0 <br />In these challenging times what our city needs is funding for health care, = education, public transport, mental health <br />resources-- not the police depar= tment. Our predominantly low-income city has been hit hard by the pandemic. Lack <br />of access to health care and packed housing has resulted in Santa Ana= having the largest rate of COVID-19 in Orange <br />County. At this time, it is = important that we fund community resources and stop the overcriminalization= of our <br />city.=C2=A0 <br />Thank you, <br />Cynthia Botello Salas <br />Sent from Mail for Windows 10 <br />--_8D798747-1967-4A49-9BB2-CC9A2E9F47A2_ <br />Content -Transfer -Encoding: quoted -printable <br />Content -Type: text/html; charset="utf-8" <br /><html xmins:o=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmins:w=3D"urn:sc= hemas-microsoft-com:office:word" <br />xmlns:m=3D"httP:Hschemas.microsoft.com/of= <br />fice/2004/12/omml" xmins=3D"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"><head><meta ht= tp-equiv=3DContent-Type <br />content=3D"text/html; charset=3Dutf-8"><meta name==3DGenerator content=3D"Microsoft Word 15 (filtered <br />m ed I um) " ><style><!-- <br />/* Font Definitions */ <br />@font -face <br />175 <br />
