Please keep it out of Orange County and <br />keep it out of Santa Ana! <br />Santa Ana needs a true public/private partnership to address the housing crisis and that starts with: <br />*Building more affordable and workforce housing <br />*Expanding the Section 8 housing program <br />*Building more conventional rental housing units <br />I have seen that instituting rent control only leads to dilapidated and decreased housing stock and fails to plan for immediate and <br />future needs. Rent control is a bad plan and the wrong vote for Santa Ana's future! <br />Tahwahnah Lyons <br />Commit yourself to constant improvement and be wise in all you do. <br />
