attention away from matters over which it exercises absolutely no authority to pressing local <br />issues will better serve the needs and interests of our community. <br />You are at one of those pivotal moments in your tenure, providing an opportunity to represent <br />the diverse voices within your community —all of your community. We believe that resolutions <br />addressing conflicts outside the jurisdiction of the City, especially those with a potential for <br />divisive discourse, will not serve the best interests of our local community. <br />It's crucial to consider the recent Oakland City Council meeting as a cautionary tale, where <br />discussions surrounding a similar resolution deteriorated into members of the public praising <br />Hamas and claiming that the massacre of Jews is a "fabricated narrative" and that "many of <br />those killed on October 7, including children, were killed by the IDF. We fear that the proposed <br />resolution will, likewise, lead to inflammatory rhetoric and a divisive atmosphere. <br />We appreciate your dedication to serving the residents of Santa Ana and trust that you will <br />carefully consider our perspective in this matter. We remain hopeful that, together, we car <br />continue to make Santa Ana a harmonious and vibrant community. <br />Should you wish to discuss this letter's plea or should you have any questions, we remain <br />available to you. Thank you for your time and consideration. <br />Sincerely, <br />Jf IeK:a <br />FPNA President <br />cc: Mayor of Santa Ana <br />City Councilmembers <br />City Manager <br />FPNA Board of Directors <br />Floral Park Neighbors <br />
