We are part of the <br />YES In My Backyard (YIMBY) movement comprised of Orange County residents concerned about the <br />shortage and high costs of housing in our communities. We have organized to advocate for policies that will <br />enable more housing production in Orange County to address the affordability crisis currently gripping <br />communities throughout California. <br />On behalf of our members, I am writing to urge you to adopt the Small Lot ordinance you are considering. <br />This innovative planning tool provides developers with the flexibility needed to build housing affordable to <br />todav's middle class families. This "missing middle" housing is in desperately short supply in Orange County <br />communities. <br />As pro -housing advocates, we commend you for your forward -thinking consideration of this innovative <br />development tool and hope you will adopt it. It is a valuable tool in making the dream of homeownership <br />possible for working families. Thank you for your time and thoughtful review. <br />Respectfully, <br />Elizabeth Hansburg <br />
