Orozco, Norma From: John Hanna <jhanna@swcarpenters.org> Sent: Tuesday, November 17, 2020 3:59 PM To: eComment Subject: Public comment in support of Item 75 A On behalf of the Southwest Regional Council of Carpenters, representing carpenters in Santa Ana and throughout the Southwest United States, I urge the Santa Ana City Council to support the staff recommendations on Item 75A and thus approve the mixed -use development on this second reading. Mike Harrah and Caribou Industries are providing the City with 171 new units, with a portion of those being very affordable, along with a commercial component and a much needed hotel. People who have business for more than a day in Santa Ana now normally stay in Costa Mesa or Anaheim, spending their money with businesses in those cities. The hotel will generate revenue and is an important component to this project. The project will rid the city of the ugly and unsafe parking structure and provide adequate parking while reducing the need for driving for people who live in the area. And thanks to Mr. Harrah and Ernesto Medrano of the LA/OC Building Trades, the workforce will be skilled and trained with a local hire component for Santa Ana residents and veterans. Please support this much needed project. John R.
