Thank you for reaching out and sharing your feedback on the proposed Ordinance. I deeply appreciate hearing
from residents like you at Metro East Senior Apartments, as your lived experiences provide valuable insight
into the challenges our community faces.
I understand your concerns about balancing the impacts of homelessness on vulnerable populations with the
need for a fair approach. I will take your feedback into consideration and advocate for solutions that are
proven to work. Please know that I am committed to advancing thoughtful and balanced policies that address
the needs of all members of our community.
Thank you again for taking the time to voice your concerns. Your input is invaluable in shaping a better future
for Santa Ana.
Warm regards,
Jessie Lopez

Subject: Proposed Encampment Ordinance
Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana. Use caution when opening attachments or links.
Dear J Lo:)
We understand that you have some concerns regarding the proposed Encampment Ordinance which would
affect our ward here at 2222 E. 1 st Street. We understand that overreach by SAPD is one concern. Many of us
here at Metro East Senior Apartments think the language of this proposed Ordinance should be changed to
allow Police discretion to send a cited offender to jail only after the 3rd incident. On the 1st and 2nd citation
the individual should be remanded to Social Service Facilities. After all Santa Ana has some 600+ beds to those
in need and we believe that homelessness is not a crime!
However, we are a vulnerable population unduly burdened by the homeless invading our Metro East Senior
campus, bus stops and surrounding businesses. We live with the daily impact of drugs, prostitution, filth and
encampment on our doorstep and in our hallways. We like that the proposed Ordinance offers Social Services
to those persons who could so obviously benefit from shelter and a hot meal and lead to safer life surroundings
for we elderly as well as the children of First Point going to/from school.
We would appreciate your best advice and effort in balancing the interests of all parties so that we will not
become additionally affected by other cities' restrictions on encampments. Everyone deserves a place to live off
the streets. If Santa Ana has no fair Encampment Ordinance, then our already dire situation will only get worse
here at Metro East and throughout the city.
Please help us to create a fair Encampment Ordinance for EVERYONE in our community.

Subject: Anti Encampment Ordinance
Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana. Use caution when opening attachments or links.
We support the Anti Encampment Ordinance with this statement:
Homelessness compromises us all. It's not a crime, it is a need that can
be filled by a civilized society recognizing that living on the streets 24/7 is
unhealthy for everyone.
A fair Anti Encampment Ordinance can be the 1st step to Social Services
then full time housing, which we all know is the root of the problem.
For those who fear this restricts personal freedom, remember that we all
must respect some limits on our behavior, especially if it causes damage
to others.
Our homeless problem is growing. Let's take the 1st step and give societal
certainty that it's unacceptable. Filling our temporary shelters can shed
light on the need for more permanent affordable housing that's required
for everyone's benefit.
Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good. Complex problems are
often solved one step at a time. Please vote for the Anti Encampment
Ordinance as that first step.

Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana. Use caution when opening attachments or links.
Good Afternoon,
I want to express my support for the anti -camping ordinance on the agenda. Enough is enough of this! Since I moved to
the Pacific Park neighborhood, I noticed the homeless on the streets who have little regard for the residents who live in
this neighborhood. I have watched them do drugs in front of children, go to the bathroom in public, harass children just
trying to walk to school, try to break into our cars and homes. Why do we have to put up with this! I got fed up and did a
petition and had neighbors sign it saying they are tired of the drug addicts taking over their neighborhoods and public
areas. I have been waiting for the right time to present it, and this is the right time. Over 100 residents signed wanting
some action to be done by the City Council and that is what we want tonight, is action for the residents of our
neighborhood. People on this Council like to talk about the youth and how we need to put them first. How is allowing open
drug use and blatant law breaking helping the youth. Instead it is normalizing bad behavior to our youth and telling them
this is ok for us but not for neighborhoods like Irvine or north Santa Ana. If you truly care about our youth and community,
approve this item tonight and lets clean up our streets, parks and bike trails.

I support Item #39 regarding the homeless. I totally empathize with the homeless,
however I don't feel they should be allowed to break the law without there being any
consequences. Many of their actions are dangerous, not only to themselves but
others, not to mention the health risks. Santa Ana has gone above and beyond offering
help but enough is enough. Take pride in our beautiful city and pass this item. We

***IMPORTANT***
I support ITEM 29.
Our community needs immediate changes!! I have lived in Santa Ana my whole life. I have witnessed drastic
changes in the quality of life here in our neighborhoods. The public drug use, crime, and homelessness has
made it unsafe and dangerous for the people of our community. We need to strengthen the anti -camping laws.
Let's take our city back and make our community safe again for all who love living here. People including
myself are afraid to shop, walk our pets, take our children to the parks, and live in Santa Ana. Let's make an
effort to take a step forward and to make positive change.
Sincerely,
Veronica Serafin

Dear Mayor Amezcua and Honorable City Council,
SANTA ANA, CALIFORNIA 92701-3513
FAX [714] 836-6108
I am writing to express the support of the Santa Ana Police Officers Association referencing
item 29 on the agenda, the ordinance to prohibit conduct that interferes with public rights of
access to public property, also known as the anti -camping ordinance.
The drug addiction crisis is what is fueling many of these homeless encampments. We need to
take decisive action to take back our public spaces for law abiding residents. Our children have
been exposed to people openly engaging in drug use, openly using public spaces as a restroom
and other obscene activities no youth should ever witness. These actions are unacceptable, but
unfortunately our officers have been held back from enforcing the law. This ordinance,
combined with Proposition 36, will finally give our officers the tools to clean up the streets, give
an opportunity to those suffering from addiction to get the help they desperately need and
allow residents to use public spaces without fear.
In closing, several cities in Orange County have already taken action to enforce their anti -
camping laws. Santa Ana should join the other cities and prioritize the safety of our residents
first. Our Quality -of -Life team is already showing how this can be done with compassion and
empathy for those who may have hit a hard time in their life. This ordinance will give us more
tools to help those in the most need and protect our community.
Respectfully,

I support Item 29 because, behind Santa Ana Express Car Wash many homeless people camp out. It feels unsafe
to walk around, there's trash everywhere, and homeless people go in to residential property. Also, the homeless
people do drugs, there's a school right next door which is horrible for children to see such things.

Subject: Proposed Anti/Encampment (Metro East Sr Apartments)/
Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana. Use caution when opening attachments or links.
To who it may concern:
Thank you Mayor Amezcua and council staff for listening to us and our concerns, I am a resident of
Metro East Sr apt:
I am in Huge favor of the Anti -encampment Ordinance. We are seniors living in Sr complex with
management not supporting us or our safety, we need to feel safe in our homes and we do not.
Having this Ordinance passed may give us a bit of security.
We need a lot of help from the city with this complex.Thank you for listening to us with our concerns.

Ward 3 Voter in SUPPORT OF ITEM #29
Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana. Use caution when opening attachments or links.
Dear Mayor and ALL Council Members,
I am a lifelong resident of Santa Ana. I have lived in Ward 2, Ward 4 and now in Ward 3 and I can tell you the sentiment
in EVERY WARD is the same... our FAMILIES DESERVE BETTER. It's time to give our PD the tools they need to protect our
residents and city. It's the right thing to do. Vote like your kids, parents and grandparents health and well-being depend
on it, because it does.
I support ITEM 29! IF WE DO NOT STRENGTHEN OUR ANTI -CAMPING LAWS, SANTA ANA WILL ATTRACT THE HOMELESS
TRANSIENTS FROM OTHER CITIES WHO DO HAVE AND ENFORCE STRONG ANTI -CAMPING LAWS!
Start protecting us - law abiding residents and stop babying the homeless transients (many of which are not even from
here and commit crimes every day!). The majority areNOT those who fell on hard times. The ones who want help, seek
and accept help. These are criminals & drug users who have been released from jail with no permanent residence & left
to terrorize most Orange County cities... They don't tolerate it and neither should we! Those cities put their residents'
safety first.

I support this agenda. Neighboring cities have already passed tough anti -camping laws and we should definitely follow
suit. Get as many drug addicts off the streets and into rehabilitation!!!
I have been a SA resident for over 50 years and it is so sad to see the decline in recent years due to crime and drug
addiction. It is NOT a homeless problem.

Hello,
As a resident of Santa Ana (Ward 3), I strongly am in favor of strengthening and enforcing our anti-camping laws. With
neighboring cities enforcing their anti-camping laws, it draws the unhoused here to SA knowing they are able to setup
camp, openly use drugs and be intoxicated and exhibit other behaviors which is witnessed by our children.
Thank you,

Attention Council Members against this item & are okay with people defecating, doing drugs, prostitution and
committing crimes on our streets, please publicly post your address and we will coordinate vans to move them
to the sidewalk in front of your home.
We are tired of being the dumping grounds of everyone in this county. They laugh at us because we won't stand
up for ourselves. You represent us and we need you to stand up for us! We don't need big events that represent
our culture, we already do that in our own way. We need YOU to start pushing back and standing up for
residents, families, children.... you know, those who voted for YOU.
Thank you,
Alejandra Rodríguez- Ward 6 Resident
