In these cities there's little rental property <br />upkeep, much higher rents for incoming residents, less residential development, people living in apartments that are <br />much more than they need, and a general sense of combativeness from some renters. Santa Ana does not need this. It's <br />also not fair to landlords who are often scapegoated, but basically trying to run a business. They're the ones who <br />ultimately pay for rent control. <br />> There will probably be a lot of emotions regarding rent control, but I urge you to stay strong and vote no. <br />> Thank you, <br />> Steve Gerschultz <br />10 <br />
