Subject: Please approve Map 86566, Santa Ana Goals 2021
Dear Mayor Sarmiento and Santa Ana City Council,
My name is Jorge Reyes, I reside in wilshire square and I urge you to select Map 86566 known as the Santa Ana Goals
2021 Map because it creates fair and equitable wards for all Santa Ana residents.This map respects the geographical
areas of the city and unites communities of interest who seek to be kept together.
This has the most neighborhoods kept together in the same ward with 67 of the 70 Neighborhood Associations not split
between wards.The north Santa Ana neighborhoods are united in one ward and the South Coast Metro neighborhoods
are united in one ward.The middle of the city neighborhoods are mostly united with only a couple of neighborhoods
split to achieve population equity.
This map keeps along the main streets in order to respect neighborhood integrity and avoids using residential streets as
a ward boundary. In addition, it also holds to the spirit of the California Voting Rights Act by creating a ward where the
Vietnamese community is kept together and has the power to continue to elect a representative of their choice.
There is no map more fair and equitable and truly reflects Santa Ana's diverse neighborhoods. Please approve Map
86566, Santa Ana Goals 2021.
Sincerely,
Jorge Reyes
