Home My WebLink AboutCorrespondence - Non-AgendaFlores, Dora From: Jackie Angel Investor < Sent: Wednesday, February 21, 2024 4:59 PM To: Hatch, Tom Cc: eComment Subject: Santa Ana State of Emergency (Notes for) Good evening, this is Jackie Cordova. I am a Mother of Santa Ana Currently, While you were gone, during our State of Emergency, ... Wow, it is so unsafe here! To live! To walk! I am alarmed at the deaths and news headlines this week are horrendous and violent! "Pedestrian dead after being run over in Santa Ana" My God "Suspect arrested in shooting outside Santa Ana store" "Man dead following Santa Ana stabbing" "Santa Ana felon and gangbanger charged with abusing a baby." Never do I see our hefty Santa Ana PD out there on foot regularly patrolling our parks, Or bike patrol our children's bike paths personally getting to know our Community personally being aware of and thwarting these abusers and preventing attacks of violence against us. I do see they like to watch it on their cameras though. We the Community Members keep us safe! Next to The Safest City in America Our Main Street corridor looks like caca, literally, there is feces everywhere! No garbage receptacle no restrooms on our busiest traveled artery. Also now with the new concrete upgrades, the Main street is a hundred times more dangerous zone! - watch out for more flying cars launching through buildings. It's also important to recognize the findings released from the urgent audit report from the State of California regarding the Anaheim Corruption Scandal: "It Has Not Properly Managed Tourism -Related Contracts and Millions of Dollars in Related Funds" I commend the brave Community Members who are always standing up and speaking out and the amazing comments here tonight on behalf of the Collective. Now here again Council, we have silencing, intimidation, free speech/civil rights violations when the Women try to speak to you, as a "last resort": since you kicked us out last time at Delhi Center (5/30/2017), Here is a review of some recent events as reported by VoiceofOC.org: "Santa Ana City Council Kicks Public Out of Meeting After Ceasefire Chants" "Santa Ana Council Deadlocks on Israel & Palestine Statement]" "At the second Santa Ana meeting in December, Mayor Valerie Amezcua cleared out the city hall chambers in response to demands for a ceasefire resolution, with police standing in front of the dais. Since then, city officials have attempted to implement policies restricting photography and video filming during council sessions, arguing disruptions. Our own Mayor Amezcua also attempted to bar public comments on a ceasefire resolution leading up to the December debate." We are saying thank you.

OCTA Never in Irvine would I see people cooking up drugs on their Main Street bus benches in broad daylight. Never would they allow the buildup of trash and feces around their city bus stops like that. Our historic Main Street corridor is riddled with unsafe buildings, vacant businesses and filthy conditions. Otherwise the bus ride itself is wonderful and well appreciated by the people, thank you. Already the city of Santa Ana is warning us we are to run out of money soon. If we cannot take care of these issues now when we have the taxed funds, then when?

Subject: 2024-03-05 Letter to City Council -Needle Distribution Attachments: 2024-03-05 Letter to City Council -Needle Distribution.pdf See attached file for tonight's meeting. Dale Helvig Resident, Santa Ana Dale Helvig Resident, Santa Ana CA 92706 March 5, 2024 Mayor Amezcua and Santa Ana City Councilmembers City of Santa Ana 20 Civic Center Plaza, 81" Floor Santa Ana CA 92702 Subject: Needle Distribution We should call it what it is ... a Needle Give Away or Needle Distribution Program. The Harm Reduction Institute (HRI) Application that was submitted on December 20, 2023 states on page 3 of their application: 4. What is the estimated annual number of participants you will serve? ANSWER: 500 5. What is the estimated annual number of syringes you will provide? ANSWER: 300,000 6. What is the estimated annual number of syringes you will collect? ANSWER: 180,000 HRI is dedicated to collecting as many used syringes as possible, however, because there are many other places to legally dispose of syringes, HRI cannot assume that it will be able to collect all of the syringes that it distributes. HRI participants may legally dispose of syringes at sharps disposal kiosks in the community and at other syringe services programs. Further, syringes are often confiscated and disposed of by the police. This number reflects these other avenues for syringe disposal. To put it another way ... this translates to an average of 600 needles per person per year with over 120,000 needles (40966) potentially being unaccounted for. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. If you remember when this "Needle Distribution" took place a few years ago, needles were found in library books, playgrounds and parks. My neighbors and I personally found hundreds of needles during Santiago Park clean-up days in the children's playground, the bathrooms, by the baseball diamond and other areas frequented by children. I was told by City staff that as a resident I should not be collecting needles in the park but should contact the city. Any delay in collecting needles only increases the probability that a child would find a needle that could potentially expose them to HIV. This Needle Distribution is not protecting the innocent. Who is looking out for the innocent people using library books, playgrounds and parks? Not anyone involved in this Needle Distribution Program, which would be administered by people that don't live in Santa Ana. Page 1 of 2 2024-03-05 Letter to City Council -Needle Distribution Dale Helvig Resident, Santa Ana CA 92706 This is a small sample of what was collected in a few hours in Santiago Park when the last Needle Distribution program existed. I do not expect any improvement given the Harm Reduction Institute proposal. Thank you for your thoughtful consideration. Stay safe, stay healthy.
