MAIN STREET Dear Mayor Pulido and Council Members, Orange County Business Council (OCBC) is the region's leading voice for business and economic issues. OCBC firmly believes that a diverse housing market is critical to the long-term success of Orange County, including a broad spectrum of rental, for -sale and affordable choices. Therefore, OCBC urges you to approve The Addington apartment project. The project's proposed residential units will reduce the housing strain throughout Santa Ana and support the local business community. In addition, the project team has created a design that respects the surrounding neighborhood's privacy, parking, and traffic concerns. Furthermore, the project will bring significant fiscal benefits and services that will help the city as a whole. When evaluating the necessity of housing projects, it is important to remember that housing is where jobs go to sleep. In the absence of housing, many members of the County's talented workforce will be forced to live and/or work in neighboring counties. Projects like the Addington apartment are critical for sustaining and driving local economic success. Orange County Business Council asks the Santa Ana City Council to consider the economic prosperity of this development as well as its impact on the local workforce and approve the proposed Addington apartment community. Sincerely, Alicia Berhow Senior Vice President of Government Affairs THE LEADING VOICE OF BUSINESS IN ORANGE COUNTY Orozco, Norma From: Pam Sapetto< Sent: Friday, February 01, 2019 1:37 PM To: eComment Cc: Mendoza, Steven; Thai, Minh; Neal, Candida; Fregoso, Vince; Kelaher, Selena Subject: letter of support 2525 N Main Attachments: BIAOC Letter of Support - The Addington.pdf Please find attached a letter of support for the proposed multifamily development at 2525 N.

Main Street, Santa Ana Dear Honorable Mayor Pulido and Council Members, On behalf of our membership, I would like to state our support for the proposed development at 2525 North Main Street in Santa Ana, known as The Addington. The Building Industry Association of Southern California, Orange County Chapter (BIA/OC) is a non-profit trade association of over 1,100 member companies employing over 100,000 people affiliated with the home building industry. Our mission is to champion housing as the foundation of vibrant and sustainable communities. As you are aware, California's economy is facing a concerning, yet surmountable challenge that directly impacts our workforce: housing. A serious lack of available housing units across all income levels is preventing new and growing families from ascending the rungs of the housing ladder. As a result, many of these talented workers are forced, often reluctantly, to relocate out-of-state to meet their housing needs. In an effort to support our workforce, we implore the Santa Ana City Council to approve the proposed zoning change and development for The Addington. Since its inception, project designers for The Addington have worked closely with community members to gather input and address concerns. The project's 496 residential units will help alleviate the housing strain on the Santa Ana community and support the local business community. When evaluating the necessity of housing projects, it is important to remember that these projects spark economic growth and prosperity for years to come. We urge City Council to consider the economic benefits of this development as well as its impact on our local workforce and approve the proposed Addington apartment community.

Main Street. I do not want to reiterate everything below, but please know that I am supportive of this project and know that others in the city are also. I live North of 17th Street just like so many others who will likely speak in opposition to this project. This project will provide financial benefits to the city as a whole, community benefits to our area of the city, provide financial support for the schools, provide construction jobs for our laborers, and also provide much needed housing stock for our current and future residents. This proposed development, according to the traffic report, will also create less traffic than the currently zoned alternative office building which could be built on that parcel. Yes, there are trade offs for these benefits which you need to weigh. For example, there may be a change of aesthetics and site lines. However, our city needs to evolve and develop responsbily the available land we have in order for the benefit of the entire city. Thanks for your dedication to our city. Dear Planning Commission, Mayor, City Councilmembers, and Select Planning Department Staff ... I am writing you today in order to provide my perspective and support for the proposed development at 2525 N. Main Street. I am attaching below my correspondence previously submitted on November 26'. Not all of you may have seen this due to the election and changes on the, commission, so I am including for additional information. I have lived in Northern part of Santa Ana for about 13 years now and am about 1 mile away from the development site and drive by 2525 quite often. We own our home and rooted in the community and truly want is best for our neighborhood, community, and the City as a whole. Overall, I believe that the City of Santa Ana can and will benefit from this project. The City needs to evolve and property development should be part of that evolution. We have far too many underutilized parcels that are not generating the property tax revenue that our city needs. Having a vibrant North Main Street is also a benefit for our community. I understand that change can be hard to accept and that the unknown may be scary especially for those with preconceived negative notions about traffic, occupants of mult-family homes, nature of young folks, etc... In order to move our city forward, we need to find additional revenue sources and attract residents of all housing types including high amenity market rate apartments especially when those market rate apartments are not gentrifying existing areas (i.e. displacing existing residents in a different economic housing position). The financial benefits of this project are substantial and should not be overlooked or passed upon: • General Fund: This project will provide almost $1M per year in additional net available funds ($33.5M in revenue less $10M in expenditures) over a 25 year period. The city needs additional revenue sources and development of undertuiltized parcels needs to be part of the plan. I pray that our city council and city staff utilize these additional funds responsibly. Low Income Housing: Provision of over $6M of in -lieu fees. This will not solve our low income and homeless housing issues but it certainly will help. • Santiago Park: The additional $1.4M allocated to the park for improvements will otherwise likely not happen without this development (or one of similar nature). N I am glad that the developer has made changes to the project. The Planning Department's suggested changes, which I presume the developer finds acceptable, seems to also be moves in the right direction which hopefully will help garner support although I doubt that it will to the "no apartment" supporters. The changes that I have seen, which I find substantial, from the time that I attended the Sunshine Ordinance (at which time I was originally opposed to the project) through now include: • Decreased number of units (density and bulk) • Change of entrance away from Edgewood • Terraced structure on the backside of the property adjacent to Park Santiago neighborhood (2 stories at the back) • Providing of security patrol for the surrounding neighbors and park • Funding for improvements at Santiago Park • Increased parking ratios • Raising the height of the wall to adjacent single family neighbors • Inclusion of a Public Art project • Providing of $1.4M to improve Santiago Park • Inclusion of Amazon Lockers for the surrounding neighbors • Providing funds for Park Santiago neighbors to apply for historic district designation The alternative use of the property which presumably would be to remain a professional office building designation likely with a 3 story building (dropped down to 2 sotry in the back although the way the parcels are drawn this may not be 100% required by a savy developer) will bring more traffic to our area of the city and likely will not provide the additional community benefits (public art, Edgewood entrance or lack therof, neighborhood security, park improvements, etc...). Overall, I believe that this project may be better off than the reasonable alternative. Lastly, the city's own planning department who are trained in these matters support the project. There are also other neighbors in the community who support it but will not speak up because they believe that their neighbors will not look kindly upon them which is unfortunate in our great community. Again, I support this project and hope that after listening to all stakeholders in the community, reviewing the EIR, reviewing the staff reports, and also considering the city as a whole and not just one area, that you will support it also. Thank you for your service to the residents of Santa Ana. Here is my prior email from November 26th: Dear Planning Commission through ecomments, Councilmembers, Mayor, Selena Kelaher, Candida Neal and Minh Neal ... I am writing you this email to express my thoughts on the 2525 N. Main development. I am unable to attend the Planning Commission's meeting on November 26th but I am hopeful that you will have an opportunity to read this email and consider it as part of your planning session tonight. I also hope that you closely consider the thoughts, needs, and desires of the surrounding community, EIR, the Planning Department Staff, and the Developer as well as the needs of the City of Santa Ana as whole. As you know, there is a fair amount of public opposition to this project. I for one was previously very opposed to this project. However, the more that I learn about it and also the needs of our city, the more I become in favor it. I am not alone in this thought process. Even though the most vocal crowd will be opposed, rest assured that there are a fair number of residents in the area who are in favor of this type of development for a variety of reasons. There are some that are even afraid to speak up because they do not want to be viewed as not being neighborly or they once opposed it and now are neutral or even in support of it when weighing the alternatives. The North Santa Ana Preservation Alliance (NSAPA) does not speak for everyone in our end of town. would like to address what I believe to be the main opposition: The Developer Is Not Listening to Us! You will likely hear folks say that the Developer is not listening to NSAPA. This is simply not true. Yes, it is still a residential development, which they are opposed to, however the Developer has made significant changes to the project based upon community feedback during council meetings, neighborhood meetings, direct discussions, etc... Some of these changes may be considered minor while others are quite extensive and likely changed the economics of the project for the Developer. For example: • There is no longer an egress on Edgewood which will significantly reduce cut through traffic. This looks to have been in response to the community concern about cut through traffic in PS. Now for a resident of 2525 to leave through PS, it will not be an easy way to go but requiring at least one U -Turn and a left turn and the traffic lights associated with such. • They increased the set back against the back wall. This is not required by code by the way. This was in response to the community being concerned about the project being too close to residential back yards. • They are doing a "stair step" on the levels in the back of the project- from 3 to 4 to 5 stories. Again, this appears to have been in response to the community being concerned about the project looking into their backyards. • They changed the look of the project. This was in response to folks not liking the original concept drawings. They also offered to meet with NSAPA members if the current look of the project was not acceptable. It is my belief that this type of meeting did not take place. • They have reduced the density. • They have increased the parking ratio above industry norms and increased the ratio as they have decreased density. They have also removed general pedestrian access on Edgewood I believe. These are in direct response to concerns of overflow parking into PS especially the no pedestrian access. Most folks will not want to park in PS because of the distance they will need to walk to get to their apartment because there is no access on Edgewood. • They are providing security patrol for PSNA. This appears to have been in response to concerns about crime in the area. • They are trying to be a good neighbor by sharing. They are providing an Amazon Locker area solely for PSNA. They are also allowing PS residents to utilize the amenities of the project. • They are providing significant funding to the park (Park Santiago)... this is huge in my opinion. It is something that Building Usage Unfortunately, I think that a lot of folks do not realize that the project site is currently zoned for a 3 story office project with 3 stories of parking (likely 4 with one sub-terranean). The reality of the situation is that the site should not remain underutilized. It will not remain a small footprint 2 story building with a massive amount of surface parking- that is not feasible nor should the city want it. I personally believe that a 3 -story building, which likely will be around 387K square feet, can have even more of a detrimental effect when compared to the current alternative for 2525. I believe that most folks who are opposed to the development and using items such as traffic, parking, visual look, etc ... as reasons to be opposed are comparing it to the existing state for that parcel which is a small underutilized (or even unutilized) office space with a vast amount of surface parking. It is not good for the fiscal impact to the city. It is not good for the surrounding businesses and it very well may not be the best for the surrounding residents. The No Project/No Build alternative in the EIR, although an alternative, simply is not a realistic alternative and it will also deprive the city of some benefits. By not developing the property to its highest and best use, the city will lose out on valuable property taxes. The amount of money that this project could provide to the city will be substantial in both recurring property taxes and also one-time fees. The funds will not only help with annual general fund obligations but also with our housing crisis in the city- both low income and market rate. The low income fees that they will have to pay is tremendous and can certainly be put to good use by the city. Although the project cannot and should not be viewed in an economic bubble, the revenue side certainly has to be of high importance especially considering the fiscal crisis we are in at a time when the economy is supposedly doing relatively well. The amount of money that a developer would need to invest in rehabbing the current property simply is not a realistic use of their capital when compared to the annual cash flow potentially provided. A reasonable investor will strive to increase cash flow and the current building would not provide that return. The North end of Santa Ana is a great community. We desire strong businesses to be located here. We desire to have a nice grocery store like a Trader Joe's. If we desire those things, unfortunately, it can be said that additional high income residents will strengthen the case for a grocery store like a Trader Joe's to consider the area. I personally would not like it at that location simply because of the traffic generation but there certainly are other areas that could possibly support it. Key Comparisons- 2525 vs Current Zoning When comparing the current proposed housing development versus the existing zoning of a 3 -story office building, it is important to consider the following: • Traffic- An office building of this size will produce more traffic than the 2525 proposal. If traffic is a concern of the opposition, then they should not be in favor of the current zoning but instead be in favor of something else. A 3 -story office building as allowed under the current zoning simply has the potential to be much worse for our community traffic -wise as compared to a residential alternative. Certainly, the residential proposal may generate more traffic during off-peak times such as late night and weekends but that is not when traffic is bad/worst on Main Street ... it is bad during peak commute times which is where a residential development has a better traffic impact as compared to the existing office use. • Traffic Flow- An office building will not have just one entrance on Main. Instead, it will have its entrance on Edgewood as is currently provided for. They may be able to add a secondary entrance on Main, however since the entrance is already on Edgewood, a developer of the property as an office building can keep it there. This appears to be worse for the Park Santiago neighborhood and the resulting cut through traffic. Not to mention that those travelling North on 1-5 will simply exit 17th Street and cut all the way through Park Santiago making a morning commute even worse with cut through traffic. With the current Main Street only exit/entrance, the cut through traffic, although likely not eliminated, should be significantly less than the existing proposal. • Parking- An office building of this size will likely provide enough parking for tenants and guests. However, this size of a building will also often have paid parking. This means that some guests and even some tenants may be tempted to save the parking fees and park in the residential area. Overflow parking is a concern of the neighbors but it should also be a concern under the existing allowed zoning. With the residential usage, there seems to be ample parking with the new proposal (2 spots per unit) whereas with an office usage there will be an economic advantage by parking in the Park Santiago streets because they will be able to save parking money. • Green Space- We all love green space. I believe that the current housing development proposal would provide for more overall green space. Now, it will not necessarily be public greenspace, but it will be good for the environment and since the Park Santiago residents may be able to use it, it may also be good for them in certain instances. Currently, the property is a dilapidated and underutilized office building and a surface parking lot- a lot of asphalt. A new development will certainly bring more greenspace to the corner lot. Low Income Housing Fees- We have a lot of concern about housing the homeless and otherwise our city's homeless problems in our area town. An office redevelopment will not provide the in -lieu of fees associated with a multi -family residential development. These fees, which likely will exceed $6M, will help our city with our affordable housing crisis. Y Visual Appearance- 2525 will be situated next to a very charming and historic neighborhood and in close proximity to others. Looks are important to neighbors. The develop has expressed his availability to discuss the visual appearance of the project, however I do not believe that anyone from NSAPA took him up on this offer. Additionally, will a 3 story, 387 square foot office building provide all that much of a better visual experience as you enter Park Santiago? We also must consider that even though the setback against Spurgeon may be larger in an office usage, they will likely have 3 stories at that setback line as opposed to the proposed 2 - story building under the 2525 proposal • Availability of Housing- Yes, the prices of these apartments will be high. They may be the highest in Santa Ana. They are also in an area of town that has the highest single family residence values in the city. Our city is in need of housing. Our city is need of all types of housing. By having more supply of housing, even premium priced housing, we should see some relief of housing stock. Plus, it will help due to the low income housing fees paid by the developer to provide even more housing. • Population Density- Sure, an office building will not bring additional housing to Santa Ana on that site. We will hear folks say that Santa Ana is already so very densely populated. Well, our end of town is an outlier in Santa Ana. The Park Santiago neighborhood has a density of 7.19K per square mile, West Floral Park is at 6.21K per square mile while Floral Park is at 5.85K per mile (all according to this research site: https://statisticalatias.com/place/California/Santa-Ana/Population) . The average for Santa Ana is 12.29K per square mile. Some neighborhoods have population density of in excess of 40K per mile (Cornerstone Village at 63.13K, 41.96K for Willard, etc ... our end of town is definitely an outlier and much less densely populated than 4 the majority of Santa Ana. If we cannot have additional housing in our part of town, how do we justify it in other parts of town that are much more densely populated? Whether we want to admit it or not, when our vacancy rates are as low as they are right now, which is essentially just vacant turn over time, we have a housing issue to deal with. The entire city has a housing issue to consider. Even the areas of town that are less densely populated should be considering how we can be part of the solution. We need to consider that if this project is stopped, which I don't think they should, that the next one may be worse for all parties (including the city due to residential development fees) and due to the current zoning on that property, we may be stuck with what we can get. We have an opportunity right now to be sure that any positive changes to the project that can be made, are considered. Residential Property Values There is a lot of concern about what a high density development will do for our property values. Sure, there may be e short term decrease as those who are so opposed to living next to apartments decide to sell their homes despite the residents of 2525 quite possibly paying more per month for their rent than our cost of ownership. However, I believe that the residents of 2525 will be the future home buyers of our houses when we are ready to move on. If they are willing to pay the prices proposed, they will soon be trying to buy a home- and hopefully in our great neighborhoods. Additionally, if folks do move, which I hope that they do not, they likely will be replaced by new buyers who will pay higher property taxes due to Prop 13 value resets to fair value. This is not a reason to approve the project but just a silver lining in case folks do intend to move because of this project. Conclusion There are positives that can come about from this project if we keep an open mind when comparing it to the existing 3 - story building zoning ... less traffic, more city revenue, more low income housing availability through development fees, etc.... Yes, there are negatives such as a possible lack of fit with the Park Santiago neighborhood and also a change from the current status quo of a vacant building and these need to be weighed and considered when viewing this project. Please consider all voices and not just those that speak the loudest or in the most numbers, but also consider the entire city. We cannot look at this in a bubble but must look at what is best for the whole city. As a resident of North Santa Ana, I want the best not only for my current neighbors, but my fellow residents who live in a completely different part of town and also future neighbors who do not even know they will be moving into Santa Ana in the future. I trust you will also and as such, please consider all aspects of this project when determining the best course of action. Thanks for your consideration.

In accordance with the Associated Students of UC Irvine's support for additional housing, we wholeheartedly urge the Santa Ana City Council to approve several important housing projects on tonight's city council agenda. We urge your approval of agenda items 75A (project located at 609 North Spurgeon St.), 75B (project located at 805-904 South Minnie St.), and 75E (Project located at 2525 North Main St.). Each of these projects increases the supply of critically important housing types needed to stem the shortage of housing for Orange County's working families. Please see the included release outlining ASUCI's position in addition to the broad coalition forming among different groups to support additional housing development. Sincerely, Cassius Rutherford President's Chief of Staff Associated Students of the University of California, Irvine www.asuci.uci.edu 6244 Student Center • Irvine, California • 92697 ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Associated Students of UC Irvine < Subject: For Immediate Release: ASUCI Issues Strong Pro -Housing Resolution Targeting Lawmakers I FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE January 15, 2019 Contact: Cassius Rutherford 951 - 265 - 0461 Associated Students of UC Irvine Issue Strong Pro -Housing Resolution Targeting Lawmakers TUESDAY, JANUARY 15, 2018 -- The Senate of the Associated Students of the University of California, Irvine (ASUCI) voted on behalf of the undergraduate student body at UC Irvine to issue a strong pro -housing resolution. ASUCI calls on local lawmakers to approve additional housing types, in particular housing for low-income and homeless populations, walkable or transit -oriented development, and increasing density. ASUCI's new policy position echoes the similar pro -housing policy resolutions passed by the Angeles Sierra Club Chapter's Orange County Conservation Committee, the Orange County Board of Supervisors, and the Democratic Party of Orange County. ASUCI's position also aligns with the advocacy of People for Housing Orange County, a non-profit group which has been pushing for additional housing in municipalities across the county. Students, working families, and community leaders from every corner of Orange County have banded together and passed strong resolutions urging lawmakers to approve the affordable and middle class housing we need. People of all ages and backgrounds are saying "Yes In My Backyard" to more housing to meet the existing need and the future housing demand in response to California's housing crisis. UCI graduates and young professionals are struggling to gain a foothold in Orange County's expensive housing market, and we need local lawmakers to step it up. ASUCI's pro -housing policy position is 2 now the official platform of UCI's undergraduate student government issued on behalf of nearly 28,000 undergraduate students. "ASUCI is proud to take a strong stance in response to Orange County's housing crisis", said Cassius Rutherford, the ASUCI President's Chief of Staff. "Students at UCI are tired of being marginalized in Orange County's expensive housing market, where the limited supply of on -campus housing forces commuters to travel long distances from affordable communities. Graduates and young professionals are being pushed out of Orange County by a serious housing shortage, in particular the limited supply of low- and moderate -income housing. We urge lawmakers at all levels to step up and tackle our housing crisis. Residents from all walks of life will stand with you." Supporting links: 1.

We believe that Santa Ana needs to develop and create destinations just like Anaheim, Fullerton and Irvine have done. Main Place was no accident and it is the perfect location to have a destination that is vibrant and competes with the best. Santa Ana was on the road to creating destinations but we got hit hard with the recession. We need to have a vision of what Main Place and surrounding community can be. The Addington will bring needed high-end density to invigorate Main Place. Main Place can be a competitive destination for shopping, entertainment, restaurants and businesses if we have the vision to see what it can be. N] • There are many well to do high-end residential neighborhoods in California that have adjacent high-density development on the edges, including high-density residential. This is what makes walkable neighborhoods are when you add in destination places for eating, entertainment and services. We all want to be able to live in our homes and walk to near by groceries, eateries, movies, etc. And we can make that happen. We can get out of our cars and walk right in our neighborhoods. It will be others that will drive here from other neighborhoods. That creates vitality. And tax base. It makes sense. And it will increase our home values. This 2525 Main Street development should be approved because it is good for all the residents of Santa Ana and for the City's coffers. These photos are not Santa Ana nor should they be, but we can have a similar vision that we all can walk to: ��B , ,, s:° �� M a +. 41 ��+'X v'S xr 3 ''"i g vF AT t t C> 3 k ��. � > � ny �$°�•V �,.�. � �� a & ar4.�� � h 1 fta } IV ro �� •3 5N+a p s AS .t 111111611 d A .']"i Sincerely Lewis and Jeanette Wood Park Santiago Neighborhood Orozco, Norma From: marc trimble < Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2019 11:27 PM To: eComment Subject: Addington February 5, 2019 Mayor Miguel Polido City of Santa Ana 20 Civic Center Plaza Santa Ana, CA 92701 Dear Mayor Pulido and City Council Members, I am a proud Santa Ana resident writing to express my support for The Addington project. It's clear to me that this project will provide our community with significant benefits in comparison to just another office building, which is currently allowed by right on that site. Throughout this planning process, I have been impressed by the developer's willingness to seek our input and actually listen to what we have to say. You would be hard pressed to find a developer or project that would be a better neighbor. I realize that there is a loud chorus of Park Santiago residents that oppose this project, but I want to make clear that there are plenty of us that support The Addington. This project brings with it upgrades to Santiago Park, free security patrols in our neighborhood, and new funds for the City to use towards police patrols, homeless programs and other services. These important benefits make me excited for the future of this community. I sincerely hope you see the big picture and the improvements and benefits that The Addington will bring to the neighborhood and City of Santa Ana as a whole. I implore you to improve this project and secure a brighter future for our residents. Thank you, Marc and Liz Trimble 9 Santa Ana City Council Members Received at City Council Meeting 2/19/2019 2/5/2019 Subject: 2525 Main St. and Sound Planning for the Future of Santa Ana Dear City Council Members, I am pro -development of the 2525 Main parcel, and I want what is good for the future of Santa Ana. In order to attract solid growth in this city, the development of this property must fit current zoning laws for Professional and Administrative office use. We as a City have an opportunity and a responsibility to create something fantastic with 2525 by building a tech incubator/hub campus where start-ups with angel investors can work on next generation technology. I work in the tech field implementing cutting edge solutions, and I know 1) that the medical technology field is hot, 2) St. Joe's and other research institutions as well as universities are close by, and 3) if you offer a technology centric workplace with a relaxed campus atmosphere, these businesses will come. These companies, as they grow, will move into larger quarters in the same area if the pricing and environment is attractive because they know people will want to continue to walk to work, entertainment venues, gyms, grocery stores, and restaurants. There is no reason to believe that the new office development at Main Place won't fit that bill. We only have to look at Silicon Beach in LA with unaffordable housing and commercial space costs as well as the price point and caliber of the 3500+ rental units within half a mile of this property to know that this is exactly the business solution that could make North Santa Ana a sought after place to live and work. North Santa Ana residential neighborhoods have already proven they can be good neighbors with businesses. We also know what happens to historical neighborhoods located next to high density housing with underallocated parking. There is no reason to believe that things will be any different in the future when we look at City Place today and the fact they felt strongly enough about PRISMA residents taking over their parking spots to post official signs telling them to discontinue doing so. In keeping with the NIMBY/YIMBY labeling that's been flying around on this issue, I believe the folks who are pro workplace development within existing zoning rules for the 2525 site are in fact YIMBYs. YES, WE BELIEVE THE CITY GOT IT RIGHT WHEN IT DESIGNATED THIS PROPERTY FOR PROFESSIONAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE USE! We want that in our backyard. .�Q I wish the NIMBYs who are against providing a cutting edge forward thinking workplace environment within walking distance of existing neighborhoods and those new 3500 units would take the "greater good" into account by making it possible to increase housing while helping to actually minimize the environmental impact of the increased population, vehicle traffic, pollution and parking in the area. I ask you not to buy into what the developer would have you believe ... that he has a God given right to control the narrative and your votes because of his donations to the City, etc., that you have to take whatever he offers whenever he offers it because you have no other choice, that you are not in a position of strength representing a vital city with choices at the bargaining table, and that you should continue to promote the current situation (as lamented by Councilwoman Michelle Martinez in a City Council meeting last year) where 70+ % of the people who live in Santa Ana work outside of the city. Please help increase the vibrancy of Santa Ana by encouraging people to embrace a live/work city with a tastefully designed tech hub such as that which is possible if you make the responsible future oriented decision to maintain the professional and administrative zoning of the 2525 property. Respectfully, Christine Denny-Helvig
