Orozco, Norma <br />From: <br />Stacey Cordova < <br />Sent: <br />Monday, August 14, 2023 10:09 PM <br />To: <br />eComment <br />Subject: <br />Item 14 <br />Council Members, <br />The proposal of open drug use in our city is absolutely ludicrous. It is dangerous, filthy and unsanitary to walk many of <br />our streets as it is due to the homeless situation. Open drug use adds another issue of safety. <br />My adult daughter can not even walk to the corner to 7-11 due to the current conditions of the homeless men there <br />being intoxicated and now we are facing them being high on drugs. <br />At what point do the responsible citizens of this city get taken care of? We are the ones contributing financially and <br />working to better Santa Ana yet we are the ones living in fear and not being regarded or taken for granted. <br />I work off Grand/1st St and walk everyday on my lunch and breaks. <br />Daily I walk past a middle school and often times there are used needles on the sidewalks. How is this safe for our <br />children or people like me out getting some fresh air. All around me there are people out of their minds, exposed, <br />urinating, defecating (which I encounter feces daily) and often times violent. Yet, it is being proposed to let them use <br />drugs openly?!!! <br />It is the job of this council to make our city better and safe for the people who live and work here. <br />I trust that you will keep this in mind when voting on this topic. <br />Signed, <br />Stacey Cordova <br />Someone who works and lives in Santa Ana Artesia Pillar -Ward 5 <br />13 <br />
