Middleton, Samuel <br />From: Wendy Haase <wendy@travelsantaana.com> <br />Sent: Monday, November 14, 2022 10:11 AM <br />To: eComment <br />Subject: Support for the Downtown Santa Ana Business Improvement District <br />Dear City of Santa Ana Staff and Elected Officials, <br />Please accept this letter in support of Agenda Item 26 (Option 42). <br />Travel Santa Ana believes the BID is vital to our city center's success. Without their efforts, the events that <br />distinguish Santa Ana from every other Orange County destination are at risk, including Artwalk and Savor. <br />These events are not only enjoyed by residents but draw visitors from throughout the region whose dollars <br />support Santa Ana's economic vitality. <br />The BID proves to be a valuable partner of Travel Santa Ana's in co -coordinating an inaugural downtown <br />familiarization tour for Santa Ana's hotel community; the introduction of downtown businesses whose support <br />of the destination marketing organization's efforts are imperative; and sharing of communications that are <br />mutually beneficial. <br />We ask that you approve moving the downtown levy forward for a public hearing on December 6', which <br />would allow the businesses to show support in continuance of the BID (option 42). Thank you. <br />Sincerely, <br />l and y III laase, GID111141E a Presid' n t &.
