Becerra, Alexis <br /> From: Elyan Husari < <br /> Sent: Tuesday, March 24, 2026 3:23 PM <br /> To: eComment <br /> Subject: VERY URGENT REGARDING TRULY FRESH J. <br /> Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana.Use caution when opening attachments or links. <br /> Dear City of Santa Ana Officials, <br /> I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express a critical concern regarding my <br /> business, Truly Fresh J, located in Santa Ana, California. My business is part of a small <br /> corporation we launched in December 2025. Since then, we have averaged $6,000 to <br /> $7,000 in monthly sales. However, to meet all of our expenses—rent, utilities, and other <br /> business costs—we must average at least $14,000 per month. Thus, we face a $7,000 <br /> monthly shortfall. <br /> I have heard from not only my employees but also from customers at the MainPlace Mall <br /> that the presence of ICE (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement) has instilled fear, <br /> causing people to stay home instead of visiting the mall. This fear has severely reduced <br /> foot traffic. In fact, people are so afraid that they won't even leave their homes. Without <br /> business vitality in Santa Ana, the city will also lose the ability to collect crucial <br /> revenues—business licenses, certificates of occupancy, and other fees—which are vital to <br /> City Hall's operations. <br /> Today, March 23, 2026, I spoke with a city clerk at City Hall about starting a petition for <br /> action. She will get back to me, and I am also forwarding this letter to S.Mills at santa- <br /> anaior.. Please do not hesitate to contact me at by phone <br /> at <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Elyan Husari <br />
