December 19, 2017 <br />The Honorable Miguel Pulido <br />Mayor, City of Santa Ana <br />Santa Ana City Council <br />20 Civic Center Plaza <br />P.O. Box 1988, M31 <br />Santa Ana, CA 92701 <br />Re: Small Lot Ordinance <br />PEOPLE FOR HOUSING <br />Orange Couafy <br />Dear Mayor Pulido and Honorable Councilmembers, <br />People for Housing— Orange County is a grassroots, pro -housing non-profit organization. We are part of <br />the 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 <br />will enable more housing production in Orange County to address the affordability crisis currently <br />gripping communities throughout California. <br />On behalf of our members, I am writing to urge you to adopt the Small Lot ordinance you are <br />considering. This innovative planning tool provides developers with the flexibility needed to build <br />housing affordable to today's middle class families. This "missing middle" housing is in desperately <br />short supply in Orange County 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 <br />homeownership possible for working families. Thank you for your time and thoughtful review. <br />Respectfully, <br />Elizabeth Hansburg <br />Co -Founder and Director <br />People for Housing - OC <br />People for Housing— Orange County I P.O. Box 6942 1 Fullerton, CA 92834 www.PeopleforHousing.org <br />
