BUILDING INDUSTRY LEGAL DEFENSE FOUNDATION <br /> BILD <br /> May 16, 2023 <br /> Santa Ana Mayor Valerie Amezcua and City Council <br /> 22 Civic Center Plaza <br /> Santa Ana, CA 92701 <br /> Consent Item #28 -AB 2011 and SB 6 <br /> Dear Mayor Amezcua and City Council Members— <br /> On behalf of the Building Industry Legal Defense Foundation, I write to express significant <br /> concerns with Consent Item 28. <br /> By way of background, the Building Industry Legal Defense Foundation ("BILD") has been the <br /> premier legal advocate for the building and construction industry in California since 1987. <br /> BILD writes to express concerns with the approach proposed by Item 28 as it broadly expands <br /> what might be a narrow exception listed in existing state law. An exponential expansion, as <br /> proposed by the city's interpretation, undermines the intent of the enacted legislation and <br /> stands to create a standard deeply harmful to housing opportunity in the state. <br /> BILD asks the city of Santa Ana to remove Item 28 from consideration tonight and conduct <br /> further legal review on the implications of your proposed approach. We appreciate your <br /> thoughtful consideration of this request. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Adam Wood <br /> BILD Chief Administrator <br /> BUILDING INDUSTRY LEGAL DEFENSE FOUNDATION <br /> biIdfoundation . orR <br />
