<br />Araiza, Fatima <br />From:Connie Major <conniemajor@yahoo.com> <br />Sent:Thursday, May <br />To:eComment <br />Subject:What I sent: Special City Council Meeting 5-16-24, Item #1, exhibits 2 & 3 <br /> Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana. Use caution when opening attachments or links. <br />My name is Connie Major and I have lived in Washington Square, part of Ward 5 for 47 years! <br /> I have dreamed of a park being developed on the north end of Olive St, my street, and Lowell for all those <br />years. A park to walk to, to take the kids to would have been so helpful as there are no parks we can walk to. <br />Now it would be a great place to walk the grandkids to and watch them play. I would love a place away from <br />home to just relax and let life pass by. A park in the Washington Square neighborhood on this vacant land <br />makes a lot of since. Please support the passing of a feasibility study for the park. <br /> <br />On another note, we on N. Olive are loosing all 26 of our beautiful old canopy Carob trees as the Tree Dept has <br />announced they are removing them all. It is in process now, we are being stripped, 80 trees throughout the city. <br />Please help the parrots with their shelter and food source and retain some of our city's natural history by <br />requesting the new park contain Carob trees! This would help connect the park to the neighborhoods character <br />and help save the parrots. My husband and I love the parrots, 15 yeas ago a baby crashed into our window's <br />reflection of sunset. We rescued him, named him Lucky and show him off on walks through the city. <br /> <br />Sincerely, Connie <br /> <br /> <br />Best Regards, <br /> Connie Major, A Ceramic Artist - Clay is clean dirt and I love to play in it! <br />( <br /> <br />https://www.facebook.com/connie.s.major/media_set?set=a.10201556099765810.1073741826.1276883855&ty <br />pe=3 <br />1 <br />
