Santa Ana's Guiding Principles as stated at the beginning of the agenda for tonight's meeting includes <br />Collaboration, Equity, Fiscal Responsibility and Transparency. From a business person's point of view, there <br />has not been much collaboration, equity to all parties, or transparency in this process. Fiscal responsibility will <br />be overlooked. Instead of the City using resources and existing ordinances to pursue admitted issues in SD-84 <br />it will be using those resources to combat the lawsuits you are assured will filed opposing the amended <br />ordinance. <br />It was stated in one of the meetings on this subject that about half of the neighborhoods in Santa Ana were <br />mixed use like Logan and Lacey. This used to be a matter of pride. If it is now a matter of contention SD-84 <br />will be a warning signal to businesses throughout the City of what will be coming to their neighborhoods. It <br />will be a warning signal to businesses considering locating in Santa Ana to seek their opportunity elsewhere. <br />Thanks for listening. Instead of enacting this proposed amendment, please work collaboratively with businesses <br />and residents to find satisfactory solutions for all parties. <br />Sincerely - Roger <br />
