Salas, Diana <br />From: Barela, Waldo <br />Sent: Thursday, June 11, 2020 7:17 AM <br />To: 'Gabriela Villagomez'; BudgetOffice <br />Cc: eComment <br />Subject: RE: Defund the Santa Ana Police Department <br />Thank you for your comments. We will forward this email to the City Clerk's Office to distribute to the City Council as <br />budget comments for upcoming City Council Meeting. <br />Waldo Barela I Budget Supervisor <br />Finance & Management Services 120 Civic Center Plaza I Santa Ana, CA 92701 wbarela@santa-ana.org <br />http://www.santa-ana.org/ <br />-----Original Message ----- <br />From: Gabriela Villagomez [mailto:gabrielavillagomez2l@yahoo.com] <br />Sent: Monday, June 8, 2020 2:42 PM <br />To: Pulido, Miguel <MPulido@santa-ana.org>; Sarmiento, Vicente <VSarmiento@santa-ana.org>; Penaloza, David <br /><DPenaloza@santa-ana.org>; Solorio, Jose <JSolorio@santa-ana.org>; Bacerra, Phil <pbacerra@santa-ana.org>; Villegas, <br />Juan <JVillegas@santa-ana.org>; Mendoza, Nelida <nmendoza@santa-ana.org>; Valentin, David <DValentin@santa- <br />ana.org> <br />Cc: BudgetOffice <BudgetOffice@santa-ana.org> <br />Subject: Defund the Santa Ana Police Department <br />To Mayor Pulido, the Santa Ana City Council, and Police Chief Valentin <br />My name is Gabriela and I am a resident of Santa Ana. I am writing to demand that the City Council adopts a peoples <br />budget that prioritizes community wellbeing and redirects funding away from the police department to much -needed <br />social services. <br />This past week, our nation has been gripped by protests calling for a rapid and meaningful reconsideration of the role of <br />policing in communities, in addition to an end to racism and anti -Blackness in America. It has come to my attention that <br />the city government, like many others across the country, is struggling to balance budgets in the midst of the <br />coronavirus pandemic. <br />Last year, the City Council approved a total of $25 million in raises for police salary and benefits for the next two and a <br />half years. The proposed $13.5 million increase in public safety spending is unacceptable, especially since the city has <br />less budget flexibility during this economic downturn. <br />
