Flores, Dora <br />From: <br />Karla Navarro <karma_karla@icloud.com> <br />Sent: <br />Monday, July 19, 2021 9:24 PM <br />To: <br />eComment <br />Subject: <br />Item #26 <br />As a Santa Ana resident I am urging the council to amend the city's cannabis public benefit fund, our <br />youth services need to be funded. Our city needs to divest funds from police enforcement, We have little <br />evidence, if any, to show that more police surveillance results in fewer crimes and greater public safety. <br />Indeed, funneling police into communities of color and pushing officers to make arrests just perpetuates <br />harm and trauma. Community services such as housing, education, and violence prevention programs. <br />Those are the institutions that help build stable, safe, and healthy communities. Fund community, not <br />cops <br />Thank you for your time, <br />Karla Navarro <br />Ward 4 resident <br />
