Subject: PT & FT City Employee Pay & Sick Leave: Emergency Resolution
To City Council,
For those with limited sick leave, and loved ones with chronic autoimmune disorders, continuing to
keep government agencies open during this time is concerning. Knowing that I could carry COVIDig
and appear asymptomatic and pass it along to my father due to proximity to various staff, but also
understanding that I need to maintain my income for basic essentials during this crisis has me
wondering what the city intends to do for its employees in regard to extended sick leave, and
compensation if and when complete shut downs of agencies occur. Funds have already been allocated
to agencies for personnel payroll for the fiscal year. It would appear we have the money already to pay
employees. It appears we would thus have the ability to pay them while encouraging social distancing
per CDC guidelines. I hope that these concerns are considered for all agencies that are able to be
closed down for a duration.

City Counsel Meeting
After reading about South Coast Plaza being shut down after a positive COVID-19 case today March 16. 1 would like the
city of Santa Ana to also take precautions and partake in closing down Mainplace mall, including major retail stores like
Macy's and JcPenny. We shouldn't wait for someone to test positive before taking action, we definitely do need to take
it seriously before it gets worse!

Subject: City council meeting
Hello,
I do not live in Santa Ana, but I do work there. My mother-in-law currently lives in the city and is the very definition of
the high risk demographic. My husband is her primary caretaker, and we are both still required to work in non -essential
business (craft store for me, jewelry store for him). I am really scared of having to interact with the public needlessly and
getting her sick. Please consider closing non -essential businesses so that we may also have the opportunity to stay home
for her protection, as well as ours and the community at large. The only way we can try to get through the pandemic is if
we all work together to limit the people who get the virus, and the people who are shopping at our locations are very
obviously not taking the warnings seriously and are more likely also engaging in other risky behavior, which puts all of us
in danger.
Please do what you can to protect those of us who want to do the right thing and shelter in place at home, but are
required by our employers to go to jobs that sell non -essential items.
Thank you

COVID-19 and our community
My name is Yadira and I'm a lifelong resident of Santa Ana. I went to school at Kennedy, and lived my whole
life on Lyon Street. I still remember using my first email address to invite Mayor Pulido to our Read Across
America event when I was in elementary school. I am writing as a concerned citizen to urge the city to place a
moratorium on mortgage, and most importantly, evictions.
The reasons are simple and humane. People need to stay home. I personally lost my part time job because of
COVID, and have no income to help my moan out with rent. Without a moratorium on evictions, families like
mine will face homelessness, adding to the crisis our county is already undergoing. We would be at risk for
contagion if we were to be out on the street. The stress itself would be detrimental to our health. A moratorium
on evictions is the bare minimum our city can do to ease residents's worries. A moratorium on mortgages will
make it more likely for our landlords to pardon a month or two of rent. Many of our residents work in jobs that
DO NOT have pay sick leave, or that spontaneously laid them off. The economy is taking a hit nationwide. A
month or two of rent will help residents have one less thing to worry about.
I urge you all to consider this. I am scared. So many people are scared. Please help us.
Thank you for your time and consideration,
Yadira Guadalupe Torres

MORATORIUM ON EVICTIONS AMID COVID-19
Due to this pandemic as a resident of Santa Ana, it is imperative that elected officials. These officials have their
position due to us the people, HELP US put a moratorium on evictions and utility shut -offs immediately. This
community is the most vulnerable and filled with working-class people. I've been told to no longer go to work,
and they will not pay me; I am not the only one who faces this problem, but so many people in this community
too. Do not tear us apart; we should stand together in solidarity during these difficult times and help each
neighbor. If we can are not supported during this time, then this will be a drastic economic disaster for each of
us, including the city.
I implore you to follow governor Newsom words to put a stop on evictions. PASS A MORATORIUM ON
EVICTIONS, AND UNTITLY SHUT OFFSN NOW.

Subject: 30 day notice to vacate
To whom this may concern,
I currently reside in Santa Ana and I've been renting for almost 2 years. In January I started to have water issues and the
problem isn't fixed still. And just last week I was given a 30 day notice to move out because they can't fix it. I don't have
enough money to put for a deposit on another place and I also can't afford to move as my rent is considered low and
this is what I can afford. I'm now in a situation where I have to find a room for rent but given the current situation with
COVID-19 I don't think I can find a room for rent until whatever this is resides. As a renter that is on a month to month
lease do I have any rights given the current situation? I don't have family ... I've lost my parents at 14 and I've been on my
own since. I'm 33 years old and I may be homeless soon. I'm just wondering if I have any rights or options at a time like
this. I'm more concerned on having a safe and warm place to stay during these times...
Thank you for your time

Good Morning, as a small business owner in the Great City of Santa Ana I am worried. This Hard time has already affected my

business like mine and do what what Hermosa Beach is doing: (Hermosa Beach has issued an ordinance prohibiting commercial
landlords from charging rent during this hard time). My small business is a dance studio in the great city of Santa Ana and I have

Protect Santa Residents from Evictions amid Covid-19
Mayor Pulido and Santa Ana City Council,
The COVID-19 (coronavirus) crisis, now officially a worldwide pandemic, poses major threats to our
community. Working people in Santa Ana are already seeing reduced, and even entirely eliminated,
paychecks, and will find it difficult if not impossible to pay their rents beginning next month. Families
across Santa Ana will begin to face severe financial burdens and you have the power to help.
We, the undersigned, are calling on you as elected officials to act urgently to prevent what could
potentially be thousands of working families facing eviction. Specifically, we call on you now to
immediately docket an emergency ordinance that would provide a moratorium on all rental increases,
evictions and foreclosures within Santa Ana. Likewise, we urge you to discontinue:
Utility Shut Offs and Late Fees For Non Payment of Utility Bills
Parking Enforcement and Citations
The Sweeps on Homeless Encampments and the Confiscation of Belongings
Debt Collection Activities
Please ACT NOW to protect Santa Ana Residents!

Dear Mayor and City Council Members,
Santa Ana residents deserve protections from evictions and displacement as we face these moments of
uncertainty and fear at a global scale because of COVID 19. As a Santanera, I have witnessed my community
facing these struggles prior to this. Now these struggles are being amplified because of the economic and social
effects brought on by the COVID 19. We need protections for our residents in which the needs of the
community are at the forefront. In this moments of uncertainty and fear, no one should also have to face
external pressures and threats like an eviction while trying to survive a pandernic.The safety and wellbeing of
our community should be the number one priority and it should be above economic and business interests. We
need an eviction moratorium that offers protections for our community. This is your moment in which you,
Santa Ana City Council members, can demonstrate solidarity and support for the communities that voted for
you to represent them.

SA Council Special Closed Session Item- 3.17.19
City Council (cc City Manager Ridge) ... At tonight's special closed session item #1, you will be addressing the city's
concerns with regards to COVID19 and the threat to public safety and facilities. Earlier today, the Board of Supervisors
met to address various COVID19 items. One of the items that the Board was to address was the County's response with
regards to the homeless population. As you know, the county operates a large shelter in Downtown Santa Ana, The
Courtyard. The Courtyard houses over 400 folks on a nightly basis, feeds well more than 400 people, and those who
sleep there are very close together. The Armory houses fewer people nightly but it is my understanding that the
sleeping mats are very close together also and the group gatherings are larger than recommended. In the Board's
special meeting today, they outlined a 4 point response as follows:
1. The Health Care Agency is to identify homeless folks who are elderly or have chronic health issues to find
alternative arrangements for them,
2. Direct outreach teams to educate street homeless about COVID19, county services and linking them to services,
3. Direct the CEO to provide alternative food services, and
4. Direct shelters to implement new sanitation procedures.
I am concerned that the county is not understanding the gravity of this situation. I am also concerned that our own
government, both county and city, is essentially forcing people, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, to violate CDC
guidelines. Yes, the above is a start but falls far short of what is needed to assist those who are struggling with safe
shelter as well as those in our community who have secure housing. Below please find my comments to the Board sent
last night, which apparently fell on deaf ears because the above does not seem to address the less than 6 foot proximity
of sleeping space, the shear intensity of the number of homeless folks utilizing homeless shelters.
The county is continuing to disproportionately impact our community here in Santa Ana and it is time that they take
steps to remedy this situation. At a minimum, they should be acknowledging it and then discussing how best to move
forward with a solution that will help those in need and our own community here in Santa Ana.
It was my hope that the County would be taking immediate steps to reduce the number of people housed at The
Courtyard and increase distance between folks according to the guidelines that our governments and health care
leaders have suggested/mandated. The county has 100%full control over its own land and needs to take steps to
spread out this population across the county. Some areas that are initially known to me that the county could easily
provide shelters, trailers, tents, etc...: 100 acres by the Great Park, John Wayne Airport Main Street Parking lot, National
Guard Armory or other locations in Orange/Costa Mesa/Tustin, County Fairgrounds, and Fairview state property. This
vulnerable population deserves to be safe and our communities also needs to be assured that our county government is
taking steps to address this issue before it turns into a bigger crisis than it is right now.
By the way, these same issues need to be addressed by our own city at The Link. Fortunately, the link has a lot more
space available in comparison to the 200 or so folks there, but I hope that the city is taking measures to segregate
populations into small groups, increasing personal space, and isolating the vulnerable populations (over age 60/65 and
those with health issues) into hotels/motels or other secure housing. The City needs to lead at the Link. The City needs
to push the County to immediately address the shear number of people housed at The Courtyard to immediately
disperse them into more appropriate housing situations while maintain safety, sanitation, and needed services for this
population.
I hope, yet am not optimistic, that the county (and the city) will be identifying those who are elderly and those who have
health issues (i.e. vulnerable populations) will be immediately relocated to more secure and appropriate housing like
motels and hotels. Please consider doing this at our own city operated shelter ... I believe that there is state funding
available for such measures. Also, please consider releasing impounded cars into a separate lot that may allow folks
who rely upon their vehicles as housing to utilize them to isolate. I would also urge you to at least consider towing of
automobiles for registration and other violations for individuals who are using them for housing until this crisis is under
control. We need to take steps to not only help those in shelter but also reduce those who may become homeless due
to violations of certain laws that we could offer some compassionate restraint on.
In addition, this is also a reason that the County needs to re -consider the number of people they are proposing to shelter
at Yale Street and instead should be proposing to reduce the number of people sheltered in one location and instead
propose multiple smaller scaled properties.
Please read the below as well as the above and show real leadership with regards to the county and city shelter.

Subject: Special BofS Mtg- 3/17
It is my understanding that at your special meeting set for Tuesday, March 17th, you will be addressing the county's
response to C0VID19. I applaud you for having a special meeting although I was believing that after the discussion as
prompted by Supervisor Do at last Tuesday's meeting that one was to be held specifically regarding the Courtyard
sooner than tomorrow. It is also my understanding that as part of the meeting, you will be addressing vulnerable and
homeless populations including those who are receiving emergency shelter in the various shelters as it relates to this
crisis. I believe that this matter requires much more than hand wipes before a meal but instead requires large scale
action for our homeless population. As such, please consider the following:
Gatherings: As reminder, it has been recommended that folks gather in groups of no more than 250, then 50,
and now 10... the population at The Courtyard is around 400 per night with about 550+/- eating meals
there. This is obviously, way more than the 10, 50, or even 250 that has been recommended by our
government. The Armory also has more than the recommended occupants nightly. By continuing to have
homeless individuals sheltered in such large groups, I am concerned that the county may be contributing to
instead of alleviating this crisis. This is especially true with The Courtyard with its more than 400 nightly
occupants.
• Social Distancing: As you know, a six foot social distancing has been called for by the government. This is even
for healthy and low risk individuals. As you likely know, those who are living in our shelters, including The
Courtyard and Armory, are sleeping much closer than 6 feet apart from each other. Again, by not having enough
space for folks to sleep apart from one another, I am afraid that the county is not doing its part in helping to
prevent the spread of COVIDI9.
Restaurants: As you know, the governor and many others have called for restaurants to cut occupancy in
half. This should be the case at The Courtyard also. By not reducing the number of people who are eating at
The Courtyard at one time, this again does not appear to be abiding by the spirit of the call for restaurant
reductions.
• Vulnerable Populations: As you know, the experts have called for those over the age of 60 and those who have
medical issues to be quarantined or sheltered in place in order to prevent not only the spread but also getting
the virus. The majority of the population of those who are residents/participants at our local shelters including
The Courtyard and The Armory are likely either over the age of 60 or medically vulnerable.
• Hygiene/Handwashing: As you know, it is highly recommended to wash hands frequently and to utilize hand
sanitizer. There are many individuals who do not have secure housing to where they do not have safe and clean
places to wash their hands.
Now, in the light of the above information, I would hope that you will take dramatic, immediate, and important action in
orderto protect the most vulnerable in our county including those who are literally homeless on the streets and those
who may be in emergency shelter. The county should be immediately implementing new housing strategies for those
who are housed in emergency shelters including spreading them out across multiple locations. Obviously, with the
concentration in Santa Ana and possibly the lack of physical structures available for this crisis, I would urge you to utilize
available county land in other areas of the county. This may mean that tents and/or trailers and portable hygiene
accommodations are needed as well as the use of hotels and motels as called for by the governor. As a reminder, the
county has full and 100% control over the 100 acres by the Irvine Great Park as well as a John Wayne Airport parking lot
on Main Street that is generally empty although right at this moment it is only about half empty due to the county
utilizing it to store what appears to be fleet cars for auto dealers or something similar. Additionally, the county can
easily work with the State of CA to utilize the Fairview site as well as other various National Guard Armory facilities in
Costa Mesa, Orange, and Tustin among others.
I also urge you to not allow homeless folks to congregate in unsafe gatherings especially with them being a vulnerable
population likely with inadequate resources for hygiene. Please consider measure that will not allow those who are
currently receiving shelter services to just walk out on to the streets of Santa Ana as that is not healthy for them or for
others.
I implore you to take quick action to help the flatten the curve and heed the advice of your very own advisors as it
relates to the most vulnerable in our community. I pray for wisdom for the entire board and our county staff as well as
our national, state, and local leaders. Thank you for serving.

Subject: Suspend Rent and Mortgages during the Quarantine
Dear Council Of The City Of Santa Ana:
In consideration of the quarantine, and on behalf of the residents of Santa Ana, please temporary suspend and
freeze all Mortgage and Rental payments for both residential and commercial properties, along with car
payments, and utilities like gas, water and electric, along with all parking citations and traffic violations.
Especially so, as you know a lot of residents live pay check to pay check and are being required to stay home
and are therefore not earning income.
I am born, raised, and living in Santa Ana, please take all this into consideration on behalf of our community.
As I love this city and cannot see myself living anywhere else.
Thanks and Best Regards,

Protect Santa Residents from Evictions amid Covid-19
To: Mayor Pulido and Santa Ana City Council
From: Yoselinda Mendoza
The COVID-19 (coronavirus) crisis, now officially a worldwide pandemic, poses major threats to our
community. Working people in Santa Ana are already seeing reduced, and even entirely eliminated,
paychecks, and will find it difficult if not impossible to pay their rents beginning next month. Families
across Santa Ana will begin to face severe financial burdens and you have the power to help.
We, the undersigned, are calling on you as elected officials to act urgently to prevent what could
potentially be thousands of working families facing eviction. Specifically, we call on you now to
immediately docket an emergency ordinance that would provide a moratorium on all rental increases,
evictions and foreclosures within Santa Ana. Likewise, we urge you to discontinue:
Utility Shut Offs and Late Fees For Non Payment of Utility Bills
Parking Enforcement and Citations
The Sweeps on Homeless Encampments and the Confiscation of Belongings
Debt Collection Activities
Please ACT NOW to protect Santa Ana Residents!
Sincerely,
Tenants United Santa Ana

Moratorium re: Evictions
I am writing to you this afternoon to express my sincere hope that you will consider enacting an immediate
moratorium on evictions within the city of Santa Ana. With all the scrambling that's happening regarding
Covid-19, thousands of people are struggling to hold on to safety and security. While we all await further
updates from the CDC, and while the federal and state governments decide how to support those who have lost
wages during this time, I believe it is absolutely imperative that evictions be put on hold. It is simply not
realistic to expect people in the midst of this chaos to be able to continue life as usual; the consequences of
potential homelessness for thousands come April is far more dire than any delay on rent checks would be.
People are afraid, and many are living paycheck to paycheck, including myself. When that paycheck isn't
coming, in a time of national emergency, I believe it is imperative for people to be able to retain their housing.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
- Rory

vulnerable families the second and fourth Tuesday of every month and sometimes more often when food
sources are available. We are working on identifying alternative methods for food distribution, which may
include drive -by pick-ups, home delivery to residents' doorsteps, and pick up by appointment. We are
incorporating as many protections as we can based on CDC recommendations and we have volunteers and

III SEIU 721 COVID-19 POSITION
SEW
SEIU LOCAL 721's POSITION ON EXPANDED WORKPLACE
PROTECTIONS DURING THE COVID-19 EMERGENCY
The COVID-19 crisis is developing rapidly and SEIU Local 721 is acting swiftly
to move employers to take concrete and prompt steps to accommodate the
needs of our 95,000 members.
Our union recognizes that the COVID-19 crisis is bringing instability and
creating a financial crisis for working families. It's our priority to ensure that our
members have the protections and support in this unprecedented moment in
history. It will be important for our union members' employers to continue
creating immediate policies in response to the CODVID-19 emergency and to
revisit them as needed. This situation is changing by the minute, and our
members who are on the frontlines of the crisis must be protected every step
of the way.
Additional Sick Leave
We expect employers to provide additional sick days for all SEIU 721
represented employees to use when they are required to be absent from work
due to the COVID-19 emergency. This includes, but is not limited to illness of
the employee or their family member, dependent care, self -isolation, and
quarantine.
Closures and Service Interruptions
Employees will remain in full paid status during facility closures or service
interruptions in response to the COVID-19 emergency.
Sanitation
Employers will ensure that hand -washing and sanitizing stations are available in
all facilities, and that extra steps are taken to clean and disinfect facilities
regularly and thoroughly.
Page 1 of 4 SEIU 721 COVID-19 Position — March 16, 2020
Special Precautions for Frontline Services
In areas where there is high public traffic, the employer will make an effort to
screen the public before entering buildings. In addition, the employer must
provide all necessary personal protective equipment and supplies to avoid the
contamination of public buildings with the COVID-19 virus.
Communication
We expect employers to communicate regularly with employees and their
representatives, including periodic information updates, hot lines,
consultations, and, where appropriate, negotiations.
Employers will provide employees and the union all departmental COVID-19
protocols which have been developed or are in the process of development.
Employers must meet and confer as soon as possible with the Union regarding
COVID-19 protocols, including, but not limited to expanded
telecommuting opportunities, access to personal protective equipment,
emergency procedures, and steps to be taken in the event of confirmed cases
of contamination.
Expanded Telework
To reduce the spread of the disease, and in recognition of employees' child
care challenges due to mandatory school closures, where operationally
feasible, employers should encourage the participation of telework by
employees during the COVID-19 emergency. Employers will make every
reasonable effort to promptly approve requests for telework.
All employers will develop an Emergency COVID-19 Telework Plan, which may
be implemented in the event that it becomes unsafe for employees to travel
safely to or work safely at their normal work location.
Page 2 of 4 SEIU 721 COVID-19 Position - March 16, 2020
Modified Work Schedules
During the COVID-19 emergency, we expect employers to consider employee
requests for modified work schedules to meet child care challenges resulting
from school closures.
Attendance Policies
A moratorium must be placed on corrective or disciplinary actions in response
to employee absences due to the COVID-19 emergency.
Protections for Part Time, Temporary, and Recurrent Employees
We expect employers to provide regular pay for part-time, temporary, and
recurrent employees who have their regular working hours reduced/eliminated
due to the COVID-19 emergency. This may include hours reduced/eliminated
for reasons such as a building closure or program suspension.
Employers must continue to provide the healthcare contribution for temporary
and recurrent employees who may otherwise lose eligibility due to a
reduction/elimination of hours during the COVID-19 emergency.
Jails and Detention Facilities
The employer will ensure all visitors are screened for COVID-19. In addition, all
workers will be screened prior to coming into jails to avoid COVID-19
transmission to inmates and staff. If inmates are found to test positive for
COVID-19, isolation measures that meet CDC's latest guidelines to will be
enacted to isolate the individual and those that might have been exposed.
Protocols, Training, Personal Protective Equipment, and Testing for
Healthcare Workers
Protocols - Employers must provide written procedures or plans for
screening patients for airborne infectious diseases, and a system of
controls to reduce employee exposure.
Training -Training shall be provided on the critical skills needed during
the emergency, including the collection of nCoV-19 pathogen
Page 3 of 4 SOU 721 COVID-19 Position - March 16, 2020
specimens in the field from a Person Under Investigation (PUI); the safe
use of personal protective equipment needed to collect such pathogens
in the field; cleaning of contaminated, or potentially contaminated
rooms.
Self -Assessment of Competency - An employee shall not be assigned to
activities related to the prevention and management of the nCoV-19
pathogen until the employee has acknowledged that he/she has been
trained and achieved personal competency in such activities.
• Personal Protective Equipment - Employees will be provided with and
trained on the safe use of personal protective equipment as per CAL
OSHATitle 8, Section 5199 and CDC regulations regarding "Novel or
Unknown Pathogens" and "Disease/Pathogen Requiring Airborne
Infection Isolation."
Testing - Each employee who has collected nCoV-19 specimens in the
field or who has decontaminated a room for the nCoV-19 pathogen or
who has otherwise come in direct contact, shall be tested for the
pathogen, medically evaluated, and quarantined if necessary.
As the COVID-19 situation develops, our union is standing strong to make
sure that our workers are safe and protected. Now more than ever, it is
absolutely imperative that employers hear the demands of our union members
and ensure that our members are properly equipped and trained to the point
of competency.
We understand the challenges of this rapidly developing situation, but will
continue to hold employers accountable to quickly respond to and address our
members' concerns. We represent over 95,000 public sector workers — we
know that worker safety is the key to ensuring that critical pubic services
continue being delivered when they are most needed.

Subject: Urge for Eviction Moratorium
Dear City Council,
As resident and former SAUSD student, I urge you to enact an immediate eviction moratorium during the
pandemic we are facing. My parents employment is currently on the line as they work in the service industry
and business has gone down. Their employers have already begun to fire their coworkers instead of giving them
paid leave. Thus, I fear my parents might loose their source of income and the negative effects that will have on
my family. More than 50% of the income my parents receive goes to paying rent. They have to use the
remaining amount of their money to also cover food, electricity, gas, internet, and medical expenses. Not only
do my siblings and I depend on my parents but so do other members of my family. Thus, enacting a moratorium
would help alleviate the stress that my parents are currently facing and protect them from being evicted if they
loose their employment. This will also protect other community members who like my family face similar
situations.
Please, I urge you to think about the safety of our community as you act during this public health crisis. With or
without a pandemic our community faces structural vulnerabilities. It is only just, moral, and humane to enact
an immediate moratorium on evictions to not exacerbate the structural vulnerabilities our communities already
face.
Sincerely,
Rosa Urquiza

Re: 55C: LOCAL EMERGENCY DUE TO THE PANDEMIC CREATED BY THE COVID-19 VIRUS
Dear Members of the Council,
The Kennedy Commission is a broad based coalition of residents and community organizations that
advocates for the production of homes affordable for families earning less than $20,000 annually in
Orange County. Formed in 2001, the Commission has been successful in partnering and working with
jurisdictions in Orange County to create effective policies that has led to the new construction of homes
affordable to lower income working families.
In light of the recent outbreak of the highly contagious Coronavirus disease within California, the
potential economic toll of the pandemic, and requests by public officials, employers, and universities for
employees to work from home we ask that you immediately docket an emergency ordinance that would
provide a moratorium on all rental increases, evictions and foreclosures within Santa Ana. In Santa Ana
this is particularly important as it is one of the densest cities in the nation, with the highest percentage of
people living under the federal poverty line compared to the rest of the country.
Given our state's high costs of housing and the extensive rent and mortgage burden for many California
families, we worry that any loss of wages related to the outbreak of COVID 19 will only further imperil
with homelessness our most at -risk families.
We know that the need to protect residents that live paycheck to paycheck from the economic fallout of
this virus includes protecting them against facing eviction and homelessness which would only further
spread this disease and make its containment harder if people don't have a home to care for the health,
safety and welfare of their families.
As you may know, many other cities have already issued ordinances' protecting their residents against
evictions amid this crisis and on March 16th Governor Newsom said, "Over the next few weeks, everyone
will have to make sacrifices -- but a place to live shouldn't be one of them. I strongly encourage cities and
counties to take up this authority to protect Californians."
As a representative of a California municipality, the state with the highest homeless population in the
country, the need to protect residents facing eviction and homelessness and the potential spread of this
disease is of paramount importance to the health, safety and welfare of your constituents.
Public health departments information on how to stop the spread of this disease lists the importance of
"wash(ing) your hands often with soap and water" and if sick to "stay home." Tragically, for those
families and individuals evicted or foreclosed on, into homelessness these suggestions become all but
impossible to adhere to.
Working for systemic change resulting in the production of homes affordable to Orange County's extremely low-income households

Good afternoon
I am sending this email to express my concern for the safety of my husband and other employees at a construction site in
Santa Ana. Working on -site are 50+ employees, some of which have been heard coughing and have not been sent home.
The health, safety, and well being of those 50+ men should be a priority. These men are working in unhygienic conditions
and are prone to COVID-19 since they are not being provided with a proper sanitation station.
Please note that all workers on site commute from different cities.

Dear Mayor Pulido and Members of the Council,
latinohealthaccess.org
In light of the recent outbreak of the highly contagious Coronavirus in California, the
potential economic toll of the pandemic, and requests by public officials, employers, and
universities for employees to work from home, we ask that you immediately pass an
emergency ordinance that would provide a moratorium on all rental increases, evictions and
foreclosures in Santa Ana.
As you know, Latino Health Access has been working with the community to enact solutions
to Santa Ana's housing crisis for some time. We are once again seeing the critical intersection
between health and housing. Amidst this coronavirus outbreak and with Santa Ana being one
of the densest cities in the country, it is critical that you act today to ensure Santa Ana
residents remain housed during the remainder of this pandemic.
We know that the need to protect residents that live paycheck to paycheck from the
economic fallout of this virus includes protecting them against facing eviction and
homelessness which would only further spread this disease and make its containment harder
if people don't have a home to care for the health, safety and welfare of their families.
As you may know, many cities have already issued ordinances protecting their residents
against evictions amid this crisis including San Jose, San Francisco and the City of Los Angeles.
On March 16th Governor Newsom said, "Over the next few weeks, everyone will have to
make sacrifices -- but a place to live shouldn't be one of them. I strongly encourage cities and
counties to take up this authority to protect Californians."
As a representative of a California municipality, the state with the highest homeless
population in the country, the need to protect residents facing eviction and homelessness
and the potential spread of this disease is of paramount importance to the health, safety and
welfare of your constituents.
I urge you to immediately docket emergency ordinance that would provide a moratorium

We look forward to hearing your response on containing this serious outbreak.

Constituent Concern
Good afternoon,
My name is Miriam Ochoa, my family and I are and have been residents of Santa Ana for over 20 years. Today
we'd like to know if the city plans on addressing their undocumented/immigrant community.
As you all well know, the city of Santa Ana has a large population of mixed status/immigrant families, mine
included.
We are well aware of the economic toll this COVID-19 outbreak will have to all families, regardless of their
legal standing. However, I think it is of the outmost importance that the city's elected representatives consider
the enormous amount of concern it's marginalized communities are facing in times like these. Most of these
families live paycheck to paycheck and CANNOT afford to go days, much less weeks without working. Theii
fears about legal status too, intimidates them from seeking help at local government offices or programs.
I'd like to ask you all, to seriously keep these communities in mind and come back with a proposition that will
safely include them in any future relief policy or break you all come up with. I'd also like the mayor to
personally release a statement to these communities and assure them that their fears and concerns are and will
be addressed. Thank you.

Dear Honorable Mayor and Council Members, My name is Rosa Ramirez and I am a resident of Santa Ana. I am writing
to urge you to approve a moratorium on rent increases, evictions, and foreclosures, as proposed by the Tenants United
Santa Ana coalition.
A few weeks after the start of this crisis, we are already seeing how Santa Ana residents are being impacted.
There are people who have already suffered a cut in working hours or have had to stop working completely to take care
of their relatives and they will have a lot of difficulty paying their rent next month. In the midst of a global pandemic, our
community needs nothing more to worry about.
Today more than ever they must act to protect the right to a home of every Santa Ana resident and ensure the well-
being of the children and families of Santa Ana.
You have the power to care for our community and pass a moratorium today.
Thank You,

Pandemic"
Dear Mayor Pulido and Santa Ana City Council members,
We find ourselves contending with a global pandemic and a local health crisis. Santa Ana is the fourth densest
city in the nation, if we don't work swiftly and responsibly to contain the COVID-19 outbreak locally this could
be catastrophic to the more than 300,000 people who reside here. Many of those who live here, including my
parents work in the service industry, meaning that if they don't show up for work they don't collect wages. I
work at a local community college and I along with other part time staff was put on leave yesterday. If we can't
go to work we can't pay our rent, without and emergency moratorium put in place you could lead many to
homelessness. As city council you have the power to enact the following ordinance "Protecting Tenants Act in
the City of Santa Ana in Response to COVID-19 Pandemic" which would protect the city's most vulnerable and
by extension everyone. We as a society will only ever be as healthy as the sickest among us. If the only way we
survive this epidemic is through social distancing and closing down shop, then we must ensure folks can stay
housed, with running water and electricity if they are also being barred from work. This is your time to set
yourself apart as leaders of this community. The lives of your constituents are literally in your hands because
people will either live or die depending on the decisions that are made here tonight. We urge you to make the
right choice and pass the "Protecting Tenants Act in the City of Santa Ana in Response to COVID-19
Pandemic" ordinance.
Thank you,
Mextli Lopez

I am a registered nurse at a children's hospital. I have talked with colleagues and kept informed by podcasts,

and how will this be informed to the public?

Dear Honorable Mayor and Council Members,
My name is Victor Montepeque and I am a resident of Santa Ana. I am writing to urge you to approve a
moratorium on rent increases, evictions, and foreclosures, as proposed by the Tenants United Santa Ana
coalition.
A few weeks after the start of this crisis, we are already seeing how Santa Ana residents are being impacted.
There are people who have already suffered a cut in working hours or have had to stop working completely to
take care of their relatives and they will have a lot of difficulty paying their rent next month. In the midst of a
global pandemic, our community needs nothing more to worry about.
Today more than ever they must act to protect the right to a home of every Santa Ana resident and ensure the
well-being of the children and families of Santa Ana.
You have the power to care for our community and pass a moratorium today.
Thank you,

Dear Santa Ana City Council and Mayor,
I'm writing to express my support for a City-wide moratorium on evictions, rent increases, parking tickets, and
utilities cut-offs, as requested by Tenants United Santa Ana and many community groups, during this public
health emergency.
COVID-19 and the closure of many public and private institutions and spaces is invariably impacting
vulnerable community members. Santa Ana City Council can act now to implement basic protections that will

Good afternoon Mayor Pulido and City Councilmembers,
Those hardest hit during this pandemic are our underserved communities. Already overcrowded and rent -burdened
families will struggle to pay rent this upcoming month, creating devastating ripple affects for much needed food and
medical care during these critical times. It is the responsible thing to do to provide the needed relief to those most
impacted.
The coronavirus has shed light on how interconnected our society is— we are only as strong as our most vulnerable
populations. That is why the Tenant Protection Act will help stabilize Santa Ana residents at a time when our work, our
homes and our health suffer the most.
You have the power to cease rent increases, evictions and foreclosures. Additionally, we urge you to discontinue utility
shut offs and late fees for non payment of bills, parking enforcement and citations, the sweeps on homeless
encampments and the confiscation of the their belongings and debt collection activities.
Sincerely,
Ana Urzua

Good evening,
My name is Jessie Lopez and I am a lifelong Santa Ana resident living in the Mabury Park neighborhood
COVID-19 (also known as coronavirus) has been classified as a global pandemic. Governor Gavin Newsom
recently issued an executive order that authorizes local governments to enact policy to provide economic relief
for our impacted community members. As a result of the current situation and real lack of knowledge
surrounding COVID-19, I urge Santa Ana City Council to issue a legal order instituting a moratorium on the
following:
• Utility Shut Offs and Late Fees For Non Payment of Utility Bills
• Parking Enforcement and Citations
• We should impose a freeze on all rents, mortgages and a moratorium on all evictions and foreclosures
• Proposal on how to mitigate potential outbreak in Santa Ana jails
We are the fourth -most densely populated city in the country and this is more of a reason to take on these
precautions. There is real fear in our community about attending public gatherings, but more than that, real
consequences to those who are being severely impacted by the economic collapse.
As a resident, I have continuously heard: 'Public safety comes first'. I agree. Let us be positive examples of
what can be accomplished when we commit to putting the wellbeing of our communities first.
Thank you,
Jessie Lopez

Dear Honorable Mayor and Council Members, My name is Belen Gil and I am a resident of Santa Ana. I am
writing to urge you to approve a moratorium on rent increases, evictions, and foreclosures, as proposed by the
Tenants United Santa Ana coalition. A few weeks after the start of this crisis, we are already seeing how
Santa Ana residents are being impacted. There are people who have already suffered a cut in working hours
or have had to stop working completely to take care of their relatives and they will have a lot of difficulty paying
their rent next month. In the midst of a global pandemic, our community needs nothing more to worry
about. Today more than ever they must act to protect the right to a home of every Santa Ana resident and
ensure the well-being of the children and families of Santa Ana. You have the power to care for our
community and pass a moratorium today. Thank you,

Local Emergency Resolution
My question for the City Counsel is, if tenants are not able to pay rent and are given an emergency waiver against
eviction, can the landlord also be given an extension on payment of property taxes.
As you know, property tax payments are due April 10, 2020. If my tenants cannot pay thier rent, I don't have the money to
pay property taxes for that property.
Can we also expect a waiver or extension for these payments??
Thank you in advance for addressing this issue.

Rent Hold
Hello,
I am concerned about what actions will be taken to help the general public with upcoming payments such as
rent or utilities. Will there be a hold on rent, should there be a lockdown for our city? How is everyone going to
be helped through this when a lot of people are already unemployed temporarily or indefinitely?

SABHC_Letter of Support Tenant Protection Act.docx
Dear Mayor Pulido and Santa Ana City Councilmembers,
As you know, the Santa Ana Building Healthy Communities Initiative has brought together residents and
organizations of this City over the last 10 years, to create lasting improvements in the conditions of health and
well-being of Santa Ana's most underserved communities. Together with your leadership, we have made many
strides in keeping families together, protecting immigrants, improving housing conditions and availability, and
investing in youth.
Today, we write to express our support for the Protecting Tenants Act, urging you to implement an immediate
moratorium on evictions, rent increases, utility shut offs ad late fees. Those most affected in these times are the
uninsured, people over 60 years old, or with a compromised immune system, those who work 2-3 jobs to
survive and are at risk of losing their jobs or income, and all of the undocumented residents of our City. In these
moments we urgently need to support each other in community so that we can come out of this global
emergency.
This is why we ask you to take action and protect the most vulnerable amongst us. The Protecting Tenants Act
will additionally establish a rental assistance fund, end parking enforcement and street sweeping, end the
sweeps on homeless encampments and the confiscation of their belongings, and end debt collection activities.
Now more than ever, we need you to protect the right to remain of every Santa Ana resident, and ensure the
well-being of children and families of Santa Ana.
Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions, at ruben.barretonsa-bhc.org.

Re: Coronavirus public comment
Dear City of Santa Ana,
As the coronavirus outbreak continues to get worse, I believe it is in the publics best interest to have all
residents self quarantine until there are no more new cases reported. All businesses should close, except
pharmacies and grocery stores. The only people that should be working are those in the food and health
industry. There are a lot of non essential businesses that are still open, allowing the virus to spread. The people
who are going out to shop for non food/health items or are going out to have fun are being extremely selfish.
Right now fun and recreational activities should be against the law. Please do everything in your power to keep
residents in their homes. Thank you
Eva Chavez
