Flores, Dora <br />From:Sheri Menke <sherimenke@gmail.com> <br />Sent:Tuesday, December <br />To:eComment <br />Subject:Vote NO on agenda item #15! <br /> Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana. Use caution when opening attachments or links. <br />Dear Council Members, <br /> <br />Thank you again for your service to our community! Vote NO on agenda item #15 and ask the staff to work <br />with stakeholders on this issue, rather than introducing a ban. This is a complicated issue and the outcome <br />affects thousands of people in this city. The staff did present a study to the planning commission in December <br />of 2023. The outcome of that study was positive and the commission was supportive of a taxed and <br />regulated program for STR's NOT a ban. How did we go from that study to a ban being introduced and why <br />didn't this ordinance first go through the planning commission? <br /> <br />Thank you to those of you who mentioned that you are in support of the staff working with stakeholders like <br />myself on this issue. Thank you also to the mayor for voting NO on November 19th and also in April. I do <br />hope that the staff will meet with us in a timely manner and create regulations that will be presented to you <br />sooner then later, as your vote tonight matters to us and so many stake holders in this city! <br /> <br /> I have worked hard for 7 years to get great reviews and shutting down my business temporarily <br />will be devastating for myself, my employees, one of who spoke at the last meeting, and many other hosts like <br />myself. Please vote NO on agenda item #15 as there is a better way forward for us all! <br /> <br />Best, <br />Sheri Menke <br />2 <br />
