To: County Supervisor Todd Spitzer and Andrew Do
Subject: Thank You for Your Leadership (Delivered Via Email)
Copies: Santa Ana Mayor and Council
Dear Supervisor Spitzer and Do:
The seniors from Santa Ana want to thank you for your recommendation at the OCTA
Board's Finance and Administration Committee last week. We appreciate you
understanding the need to amend the agreement for the Senior Mobility program for
Santa Ana. By correcting the agreement to reflect a program that provides transportation
to Santa Ana seniors from their homes to the senior centers and back, to shop for
groceries, and for excursions within a reasonable radius around our county makes sense.
You have shown that you are leaders that care about the needs of seniors in Santa Ana
and have treated us with respect. We appreciate both of you recognizing that Santa Ana
always kept OCTA abreast as to the destinations of the trips as Santa Ana believes on an
honest and trusting relationship with OCTA. We are hoping that OCTA staff come to
Santa Ana and meet with the senior advisory group to share the plans to improve the
program.
Seniors in Santa Ana are mobilizing to do our civic duty and vote, serve as jurors in our
court system and attend City Council and County Supervisor meetings as well as reach
out to our state and federal representatives so they can be reminded that we matter and
are worthy of respect.
We appreciate you thinking of our needs and making sure that Santa Ana is treated like
all other cities in the county.
Sincerely,
Santa Ana Senior Center Southwest Senior Center
