Becerra, Alexis <br /> From: Francis Franklin <noreply@adv.actionnetwork.org> <br /> Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2025 7:51 PM <br /> To: eComment <br /> Subject: Please Consider Much-Needed Affordable Housing (Item #28, Village Santa Ana <br /> Specific Plan) <br /> Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana.Use caution when opening attachments or links. <br /> Hon. Councilmembers Mayor and, <br /> Santa Ana is in desperate need for affordable housing. This project would create up to 1,583 <br /> needed residential units but not a single unit on-site is affordable. Too many working people <br /> can't afford to live closer to where they work, spending hours away from their families in <br /> traffic. However, because the Development Agreement allows the developer to pay the <br /> lowest in-lieu fee ($5/sq. ft.), rather than provide on-site affordable housing, the Village <br /> Specific Plan could move forward without a single affordable unit on-site—despite the <br /> community's urgent need. Accordingly, we urge you to require some portion of the housing to <br /> be affordable housing. Please do not move forward with the Village Santa Ana plan, until this <br /> and other concerns are addressed. Thank you. <br /> Francis Franklin <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> i <br />
