Use caution wnen opening attachments or links. <br />Dear City Council Members of Santa Ana, <br />I am writing today to strongly support the proposed ordinance to ban short-term rentals(STRs) in our city. <br />I have been a resident for 20+ years and have found STRs to only take from our community and not add to it. With STRs I <br />have observed that: <br />• Guests are not considerate of their neighbors, being loud and often throwing parties <br />• When an issue arises, no one seems to take accountability between the guests, investor or even AirBNB to <br />address issues. <br />• The investors/owners of these STIR properties are not from our city and are only looking at lining up their <br />pockets with little consideration for development of our community <br />• We are reducing the amount of homebuyers who want to make Santa Ana their permanent place of residence <br />and add value to our neighborhoods <br />In the interest of our city and local community, I strongly urge that we ban all STRs effective immediately. <br />Thank you, <br />Tim <br />1 <br />
