However, we are concerned <br /> about the additional requirement to submit a Rent Control Exemption form annually. <br /> We would like to understand why Santa Ana imposes this extra administrative step when other cities <br /> in Orange County do not. It feels burdensome and unnecessary, especially for properties that clearly <br /> qualify for exemption under the ordinance. Is there a reason this process cannot be streamlined or <br /> automatically recognized based on existing records? <br /> We respectfully urge the City to reconsider this requirement or provide clearer justification for its <br /> necessity. We also hope more property owners will voice their concerns so that a fair and balanced <br /> approach can be achieved. <br /> Could you please confirm receipt of this message and advise if any changes to the exemption <br /> process are being considered? <br /> Thank you for your attention to this matter. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Michael Seetao <br /> <br /> i <br />
