Araiza, Fatima <br />From:Christine Morinello <info@sg.actionnetwork.org> <br />Sent:Friday, December 03, 2021 1:10 PM <br />To:eComment <br />Subject:Letter of Support for FX Residences Development (12/7 - City Council Agenda Item# <br />16 in conjunction with Housing Authority Agenda#3) <br />City Clerk Council Members, <br />Dear Santa Ana City Clerk Council Members: <br />I am retired, a registered voter, and a homeowner in Orange County. I have performed <br />volunteer work for seven decades, ever since my childhood in the 1950s. I was raised by <br />parents who grew up during the Great Depression and believed strongly in giving back to the <br />community, especially to our brothers and sisters struggling to survive on the margins of <br />society. <br />I support the proposed FX Residences development on East Santa Ana Boulevard, which <br />would provide 16 high-quality Permanent Supportive Housing units to help end our county's <br />homelessness crisis. Given the disproportionate impact the pandemic has had on low-income <br />families, this supportive housing will be more needed than ever as we look to rebuild our local <br />economy and end homelessness in our community. <br />Thank you for allowing me to express my opinion. I would like to leave you with the following <br />quote by the late Annie Mae Tripp, the founder of Southwest Community Center in Santa Ana <br />where I helped pay for, cook and serve dinners on the first Saturday of each month for many <br />years, " We make a living by what we earn. We make a life by what we give." <br />Very truly yours, <br />Christine L.
