However, this <br /> amount is not enough to sustain the community for the duration of construction, and we urge the City Council to <br /> approve more funding immediately and to hold OCTA accountable for matching funds. <br /> For the last month, during the closure of 4th St. we have seen a significant drop in sales, about 40%. And we <br /> still have not recovered from the last 2 years of the pandemic as we host creative workshops and classes as the <br /> attendance for those have not returned to pre-pandemic levels. We have been in Downtown Santa Ana for <br /> almost 6 years now and we love being in the community but we're unsure how long we'll be able to remain in <br /> business. <br /> Kind regards, <br /> Liz Yim <br /> Liz Yim <br /> Co-Founder&Curator <br /> M.Lovewell I mlovewell.com <br /> i <br />
