OQ�F,F OR yoG�2 <br /> Fighting for a future of abundant housing in Orange County. <br /> peopleforhousing.org <br /> Orange county <br /> The Honorable Valerie Amezcua <br /> City of Santa Ana <br /> City Hall <br /> 20 Civic Center Plaza <br /> Santa Ana, CA 92701 <br /> May 15, 2023 <br /> RE: Item #28: OPPOSE: Proposal to exempt sites from SB 6 &AB 2011 <br /> Dear Mayor Amezcua and City Councilmembers, <br /> On behalf of People for Housing Orange County, I am writing to heartily protest the city's <br /> efforts to exempt all eligible sites from AB 2011 and SB 6. This strategy undermines the <br /> production of affordable housing and the turnover of underperforming commercial sites <br /> into mixed use development.These bills are essential tools to help solve the housing <br /> shortage and affordability crisis and undermining them sends the wrong message. <br /> Perhaps even worse, it creates a terrible precedent for more NIMBY cities to declare <br /> themselves exempt as well. <br /> Santa Ana has been a leader in Orange County in making room for new housing. The city <br /> has worked diligently to balance the need for deeply affordable housing with <br /> development interests in revitalizing long under-invested neighborhoods. In contrast, <br /> most OC cities have failed to be proactive in making room for new housing. Some have <br /> been overtly hostile or deceptive in their efforts to rebuff or reject new housing and take <br /> every opportunity to derail or deny policies and projects that would get more housing <br />
