I am <br />even more concerned as it the current council members who have voted in favor of this pay raise. I recently saw that <br />two council members were creating a police oversight committee. How can we trust council members, who have <br />received and continue to receive funds from the Santa Ana Police Association. I demand transparency in all police <br />oversight committees and findings. <br />The city of Santa Ana, is comprised of many youth. It saddens and angers me to see the city's lack of prioritization into <br />children, youth and prevention programs. I was recently made aware that all part-time staff at the library were laid off. <br />How can the City continue to leave out the voice of so many children and youth. I am asking that you reprioritize the <br />city's budget and prioritize the children and youth of Santa Ana. I am asking that the the city council not view is residents <br />as "animals" and instead view the residents of Santa Ana as the hard working, and resilient people that we are. <br />Keep our streets safe by prioritizing children and you and implementing preventative programs and by counting to fund <br />services such as our library. <br />Jackeline Reyes, MSW <br />Sent from my iPhone <br />
