Mitre-Ramirez, Norma <br />From: Huizar, Maria <br />Sent: Wednesday, May 02, 2012 2:35 PM <br />To: Trevino, Jay <br />Cc: Mitre-Ramirez, Norma <br />Subject: FW: Sexslinger House and Orange Orchard <br />Another letter <br />From: Molly Matteson [mailto:mollhead@att.net] <br />Sent: Wednesday, May 02, 2012 1:09 PM <br />To: Huizar, Maria <br />Cc: jeannie@saveourorchard.org <br />Subject: Sexslinger House and Orange Orchard <br />Honorable Mayor Pulido and Members of the Santa Ana City Council: <br />I respectfully request the Santa Ana City Council add the historic Sexlinger House and Orange <br />Orchard to the City's Register of Historic Properties, so future generations of Santa Ana residents <br />can learn about the history of the City through this last example of the once thriving citrus industry. <br />The nearly 100 year-old farm house and orchard qualify for addition to the City's Register since it <br />represents a business that was once common. <br />The house and orchard are on its original site adjoining the City's Portola Park. The house is in <br />good condition and the orchard continues to produce fruit. Both the house and orchard are an <br />excellent example of a small-scale farm that once provided citrus to the rest of the nation. <br />Thank you in advance for your consideration of this request. <br />Yours Truly, <br />Molly Matteson <br />i <br />75B-45
