DISCUSSION
The Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center (SARTC) is a regional transportation
hub that brings together Amtrak, Metrolink, Orange County Transportation Authority
(OCTA), interstate bus services, and in the future, the OC Streetcar. The facility is open
to the public seven days a week from 5 a.m. to midnight and contains approximately
35,000 square feet of rental space, including ten bus bays.
In 2019, State Senator Thomas J. Umberg’s staff approached City staff to express
interest in leasing approximately 3,200 square feet of office space at SARTC. Senator
Umberg represents Senate District 34, which includes the cities of Anaheim, Fountain
Valley, Garden Grove, Huntington Beach, Los Alamitos, Midway City, Orange,
Rossmoor, Santa Ana, Seal Beach, and Westminster in Orange County, as well as part
of the city of Long Beach in Los Angeles County. Santa Ana is the county seat and is
centrally located within Senate District 34.
On June 18, 2019 the City Council approved a site lease agreement, with Senate Rules
Committee, California Legislature, to lease 3,200 square feet of office space at SARTC.
Recently State Senator Umberg’s staff expressed interest in entering into a new lease
for a four-year term beginning April 4, 2023 to February 28, 2027. By continuing to lease
