Dale Helvig <br />2536 N. Valencia St. Santa Ana CA 92706 <br />714-541-7254 helvig_denny@msn.com <br />d. Staff Report page 5513-11: Attachment 1, Project Timeline and Budget. Seems like some <br />nieces are missing: <br />Be m <br />End <br />2D — Preliminary Draft Ordinance #1 <br />10/01/20 <br />12/03/20 <br />2E — Draft Ordinance #2 <br />12/03/20 <br />01/07/21 <br />2F — Final Public Draft Ordinance #3 <br />01/07/21 <br />01/21/21 <br />This implies there will be 3 Ordinances, with draft #2 being addressed over the Christmas <br />holiday. Really? <br />e. Staff Report pages 5513-15: "Certifying Official" is not identified, nor is it signed. <br />f. Staff Report pages 5513-16: "Attesting Officer" not identified, nor is it signed. <br />g. Staff Report pages 5513-19: Form is incomplete and what is there is incorrect. <br />A further concern of mine is listed on Staff Report page 5513-10: <br />"2. SANTA ANA ZONING CODE UPDATE will focus on amending City policies and development standards to <br />facilitate and accelerate housing production, and associated community outreach: Implement land use and <br />housing policies within the City' s comprehensive General Plan Update targeted for completion by the end of <br />2020 ( https:// www. santa- ana. org/ general- plan) such as creating new residential [bold for emphasis]/ <br />mixed use zoning districts and objective development standards to implement the City' s Draft Land Use Plan <br />proposing additional residential density near high quality transit corridors. Re- evaluating the current <br />residential zoning districts related to permitted uses, building height, lot coverage, parking, and open space. <br />This could include amending Two -Family Residential Zoning District ( 132) and Townhouse standards to reflect <br />best design practices. <br />Last comprehensively updated in the 1960's..." Updates have been as needed. A comprehensive update <br />could be a waste of time and money. <br />While I agree with getting grant money to assist in the General Plan update, I feel this grant <br />application is slanted to the benefit of developers and has little regard for the citizens of Santa Ana. <br />The City Council should be presented with a final document, not what amounts to an incomplete <br />draft document. In my opinion this should be withdrawn and presented at a later meeting. The Final <br />Due Date for OTC Applications Report is July 1, 2020. You have time to do it right. <br />Thank you for your time. Stay safe, stay healthy. <br />Page 2 of 3 <br />2020-06-02 Letter to City Council <br />
