My family and <br />I live in Ward 2 and it's sad how open drug use is becoming common and an every day thing. I have a 3 year old that we no longer <br />take on walks on Bristol because of all the homeless and open drug use. It's maddening that as a tax payer of the city of Santa Ana I <br />have to go to surrounding city to do my walks or enjoy their parks because of this open drug use being out of control. No longer do I <br />feel safe in city. I work in Huntington Beach and during my lunch I go walk around the area where it's nice and safe. Never have I <br />witness any one doing or being under the influence. Why? Because Huntington Beach does not allow so. Bristol is becoming just like <br />Skid Row and we need to stop this immediately. My father, 70 year old takes the bus to work and often times has to stand to the side <br />as he waits for the bus because homeless are taking over the waiting bench. Often times they ask him for money making him feel <br />uncomfortable and unsafe. We cannot be a dumping city. My family deserves safety. My family deserves better. Santa Ana deserves <br />better! <br />A.N <br />Ward 2 <br />Sent from my Whone <br />
