Subject:Support for Councilmember Penaloza's Resolution Opposing SCAQMD Rules 1111
and 1121
Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana. Use caution when opening attachments or links.
Clerk, Mayor, and members of the Council:
This email is in support of Councilmember David Penaloza's resolution to oppose SCAQMD's proposed rules
1111 and 1121. The burdens on property owners and tenants alike will be detrimental to the quality of life in
Santa Ana.
Should these rules be adopted, countless Santa Ana residents would be displaced in order to replace these units -
as many older buildings would need to be retrofitted and redesigned in order to accommodate the new
appliances. Additionally these burdensome costs - typically over $10,000 per installation - would be born by
already constricted property owners - and already burdened tenants.
Further, the assumed benefits for installing these units is marginal, and less reliable. Leaving countless Santa
Ana residents to rely on an electric grid that has not been as dependable in recent years.
These impacts are not worth the perceived benefits, and we urge you to support Councilmember Penaloza's
resolution to oppose SCAQMD's proposed rules 1111 and 1121.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely, Ebba Chahowskoi

Subject:OC Cities are Badly Served by the County Animal Shelter. Is Reform Possible?
Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana. Use caution when opening attachments or links.
Did you see the opinion piece I published in Voice of OC?
https://voiceofoc.org/2025/02/lamirande-oc-cities-are-badly-served-by-the-county-animal-shelter-is-reform-
possible/
The city has a contract with OC Animal Care. The contract expires on May 30 2026. What are you going to
do afterwards? You need to consider multiple options.
Ask the county to put the shelter operations out to bid. Non-profits can then bid to offer superior services at a
lower price.
If the county refuses, look for local non-profits that can provide these services to the city.
If you do nothing, you’ll be at the mercy of the county. The county is exploiting the cities, running a mediocre
shelter and feeding its bureaucracy with the cities’ dollars
