It will destroy safety and decent rental housing in Santa Ana. <br /> <br />The Council is not considering the needs of its residents who rely on landlords to keep neighborhoods clean of crime. <br />They do this by evicting tenants who are involved in crimes that harm their neighbors. Ability to evict is essential. <br />Removing this tool only helps the criminals stay in residences where they are harming their neighbors. <br /> <br />Rent control will remove funds for maintaining apartments. Santa Ana cannot afford to let apartments deteriorate. It is <br />a vulnerable city. <br />Landlords need funds to maintain their rentals. Spending money without income is not sustainable. <br /> <br />Many Santa Ana rental are owned by small apartment owners who often survive on the rental profit, and cannot afford <br />to maintain the rentals without income. <br />19 <br /> <br />
