Normandy Place, the site being proposed for the multi- service emergency <br />homeless shelter. Approximately 25 speakers spoke on the item during public comment prior to the <br />Board recessing to closed session to consider the item. The majority of the speakers were residents or <br />property owners near the Normandy site area and indicated opposition to the project. Upon resuming <br />the open meeting, Supervisor Janet Nguyen spoke and made a motion to move the homeless shelter <br />project to the Santa Ana Transit Terminal (also known as the abandoned OCTA bus terminal). It is my <br />understanding that Nguyen's motion was not actionable since it was not an item placed on the Board <br />agenda. However, with Supervisors Moorlach, Nelson, Nguyen and Spitzer present, the Board of <br />Supervisors unanimously voted against moving forward with the Normandy site (Bates not present). <br />For your reference, the County staff report is available at: <br />http: / /cams.ocgov.com /Web Publisher /Agendal1 18 2014 files /images /A14- 001607 HTM <br />The video playback should be available online by this evening at <br />http:/ /ocgov granicus.com /ViewPublisher php ?view id =4. <br />Please let me ]snow if you have any questions or would like additional information. <br />Respectfully, <br />Alma Flores <br />City Manager's Office <br />City of Santa Ana <br />20 Civic Center Plaza, M31 <br />Santa Ana, CA 92702 <br />afloresn-santa -ana. ora <br />(714) 647 -5200 office <br />
