Although a tremendous amount of effort has <br /> been spent on this project, I see the General Plan as a blueprint for development rather than a vision <br /> for the City of Santa Ana. The draft vision of the city to strive to maintain the parkland space is not <br /> even met. With the buildout population increase of over 96,000 people,just to maintain the current <br /> deficient ratio of 1 acre per 1000 residents we need to have a vision of 192 of additional parkland <br /> space. Notice the 2045 vision for increased parkland space is ZERO. <br /> LAND USE PLAN <br /> SAME; net change is zero <br /> SANT <br /> . . .

The General Plan Update should reflect the vision of the community and not <br /> read so much as a developer's handbook. We deserve the "Shared Vision"for Santa Ana. <br /> State Sen. Dave Min (D- Irvine) was quoted as saying', <br /> "Open space preservation is smart policy, which not only supports our sustainability efforts but also <br /> improves the quality of life for our residents and brings our community together." <br /> Irvine has the right idea and we can benefit if we copy them. <br /> i SUNDAY,AUGUST 15,2021,Times OC <br /> Page 4 of 5 <br /> 2021-12-07 Letter to City Council-GP Comments on Open Space Element <br />
