Zuniga, Diana <br />From: Kelly Kraus -Lee < <br />Sent: Friday, March 28, 2025 12:46 PM <br />To: Amezcua, Valerie; depenaloza@santa-ana.org; eComment <br />Subject: Support for Item 22 <br />Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana. Use caution when opening attachments or links. <br />Dear Mayor Amezcua and Members of the City Council, <br />I am writing as a resident of the Transit Zoning Code to express my strong support for the proposed <br />amendments to the SD-84 zoning code, and specifically the removal of the M1 and M2 industrial use <br />overlay. These amendments are a long -overdue fix to the decades of incompatible land uses in the <br />Lacy and Logan neighborhoods. <br />I appreciate that the proposed amendments will not force out any existing businesses currently <br />operating within the affected areas. Rather, they will create flexibility for business owners to sell their <br />business and for property owners to re -tenet their buildings with a broad range of businesses. This <br />will allow for responsible business owners to continue to positively contribute to the neighborhood and <br />prevent vacant buildings. <br />These amendments also provide the city with an essential tool to address the bad actors who are <br />negatively affecting the quality of life in the neighborhood, such as the dump and metal recycling <br />facilities next to Garfield Elementary School. With these amendments, we can better encourage <br />responsible business ownership, ultimately improving the quality of life for residents and business <br />owners alike. <br />I encourage the City Council to approve these amendments for the benefit of the 1,500 families in the <br />historic Logan and Lacy neighborhoods, and the city as a whole. <br />Sincerely, <br />Kelly Kraus -Lee <br />Ward 6 <br />
