Mitre -Ramirez, Norma <br />From: <br />Sent: <br />To: <br />Subject: <br />Greetings Santa Ana City Council, <br />Gavin Clifford < <br />Thursday, August 16, 2018 9:09 AM <br />eComment <br />New homeless shelter <br />I am a Santa Ana resident for the past 6 years. I live and work in Santa Ana and have begun raising my family here. The <br />#1 issue that I have with Santa Ana is the abundance of homeless people that I see in parks, on the streets, digging <br />through dumpsters, in front of buildings, in my community pool, etc. It seems like our city has no ability to say no and to <br />force other cities to deal with their own homeless problems. Everybody can dump their homeless people in Santa Ana and <br />make it our problem and we just take it and suffer for it. Why is that? Why can't this city stand up for itself? Why can't <br />shelters be built in other cities? Does the city council act in the best interest of the community it serves? How are other <br />cities able to refuse services and housing for homeless but we can't? I want to live in a safe city, I want to be able to enjoy <br />public places, and I don't think creating the largest homeless shelter in the United States will accomplish that. Thank you <br />for your time. <br />Gavin Clifford <br />a�/ <br />
