Agency Member Pulido stated that in order to encourage merchants to come into the Mercado, the Downtown Santa Ana Business Association (DSABA) had signed five-year leases with the tenants but that these leases had now been supplanted by month-to-month tenancies, adding that DSABA had assured these tenants that the City would give them some protection such as first right of refusal.

Chairman Young then asked that staff explore the possibility of making the promotion of this groundbreaking as a "reopening of downtown". He also pointed out that the MainPlace opening was also targeted for September and asked that staff work to see that there would not be a conflict between the two developments since they were both very important to the future of Santa Ana.
