For the first 9 years, my family have been living in an uncertain, unsafe feeling because of all the illegal activities behind my house due to the Logan hand ball court. Graffiti were an competition for all gangs. The city cleaned it up, a few days later, a new Graffiti will appear and the battle for the city to clean these up none stop. Almost every night, especially weekends, my wife, 2 daughters have to listen to all the cursing and fighting from all teens and adults not belong in the neighborhood that have came to play hand balls. At least 2 times a week, for the last 9 years, our life will be disturbed by these strangers knocking on our door to try to look for a hand ball that might felt in our back yard. During these 9 years, we have multiple incidents of trespassing, they would jump into our backyard claimed to be looking for their balls. If you check the city police records. There were 2 times they jumped into our backyard while my 2 daughters ( were 10 and 12 year old then) playing in the yard. We have called the police twice in our first year living here, we stop calling since I know there nothing the police can do to stop people from jumping into our backyard. Also there was a homeless crisis that was constantly between the ball park and our backyard. People smoke weed, doing drugs, fighting and I once witnessed the sound of moaning of a homeless couple making out behind our wall. Our back door always locked, and I am the only one to bring trash out at night or go to our detach garage to get things out, due to fear and and security for my wife and daughters might encounter unexpected trespassers. Thank you for your decision to removed the hand ball court out last year and plan to renovate it into a children’s family playground. Thanks God, my family finally can enjoy living in our own house with peace and feeling secure. My back door have been open out since so that we can enjoy the fresh air, listening to the birds singing each morning, and most importantly of all, my family feel relax and can BBQ in our own backyard without fear. Please DO NOT make decision to bring the hand ball court back again. We can’t live in peace with the hand ball court present at Logan Park. Please place yourselves living in our home. Would you welcome violences, illegal activities, noisy, disturbances and unsafe living conditions in your own home, your own backyard ? People who are requesting The City Counsel to rebuild the hand ball court don’t live here, they never have to experience the living hell condition like my family have experience the last 9 years. We just started to feel safe and enjoying our life in our own home a few months since the removal of the Logan hand ball court. Please DO NOT bring hell back into our backyard. Please DO NOT take away our peace and security in our own home. Please place yourself in our living conditions with the hand ball court presented in the past that my family have to worry and distress all the time. If you need to listen to my family and my neighbor who backyards facing the hand ball court, please contact us for a real living testimony. Thank you so much for your kindness, reconsideration of voting a NO to the Logan Hand Ball court. However, should the City Counsel decision to vote YES to bring the hand ball court back, please accept this email as a legal document to report an unsafe living conditions if the Logan Hand Ball court is allow to rebuild. Should any thing happen to my family safety or personal distress that we will have to suffer like in the past. My family will hold the City of Santa Ana 1
